Hmm...I didn't realize BuilderX existed. I don't pay much attention except
when I am looking for another compiler. BuilderX Personal seems like it
might actually have standards-compliance of sorts built in. According to
the spec. sheet, they have their own compiler (bcc32.exe), MinGW, and GCC
(Cygwin perhaps?). Between the three of those, there has to be some
semblence of compliance :)
I have no idea why they are including every compiler on the planet
including Microsoft's with their own in BuilderX Developer. This is
definitely a different approach to compiler development, but not quite sure
how viable it is for them financially and whether or not they have updated
their own compiler. BuilderX Personal is $50 and comes with an IDE.
Probably the $50 is for the IDE :)
Of course, this answers the questions I was having about why Borland was
schmoozing with Microsoft - they wanted the easy way to do C# without doing
it themselves.
