assuming you are using windows:
if you have setup borland 5.5 the right way you should beable to compile your code throught the command propmt. IF you can do that then do what i did.
1. make a folder for your code.
2. on your desktop make a new text file
3. in the file write this
Quote:
cd\[dir for your files]
bcc32 [generic file name].cpp
[generic file name]
|
example:
Quote:
cd\mycode
bcc32 test.cpp
test
|
so when i code i same my file as test. i do this when working on one program, though.
4. file>save file as>file name "compile.bat">save file type "All Files">save
5. make a hello world program and save in your dir you made. save the name as the generic file name.
6. click on the compile.bat on your desktop.
thats what i did. it works from me. if it doest work for you keep on posting.
