This chapter will introduce you to Borland C++Builder, one of the leading development environments for creating Internet, desktop, client/server, and distributed applications. C++Builder combines the ease of a RAD environment with the power and performance of ANSI C++.
The C++Builder Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is where most of your work is done. Have a look at Figure 1.1 to see the user interface of the C++Builder IDE.
C++ remains the most widely used language for developing applications, which range from sophisticated multitier business systems to high performance data visualization and hard, real-time systems. C++Builder is an excellent choice for implementing any application.
