Guys ,

There must be many of u studying in school or college who have to use Turbo C++ because the new compilers won't compile the old format code or they don't include the borland specific-headers and the most important , that Turbo C++ being a 16 Bit application does not work under Windows XP/2000 .

Here's an alternative to TC that will compile the old format code just fine under windows XP and into a 32 bit executable .

Here's how u can use Borland's FREE C++ Compiler along with the Relo IDE [i use it myself for school program testing ] :

1. Get Borland's Free C++ Compiler Here

2. Download the Free Relo IDE Here

3. Now Install Borland's Compiler First n then Relo IDE , it will ask u for Compiler Path during setup , just provide the path where u installed Borland's Compiler n that's it, u have yor Development Environment Set-up and ready to Go .

Relo has a much better Code Editor than TC , and supports a mouse too
