“Hoping to bridge the gap between C++ and Internet development,
Borland/Inprise is adding support for XML and HTML 4 to its
development tool with the pending release of Borland C++ Builder
5.”

“Really, what we’re doing is marrying C++ and the latest
Internet technologies,” said Michael Swindell, director of product
management at Borland/Inprise, in Scotts Valley, Calif. “These can
be stand-alone applications from people just starting out building
new sites, but more importantly, it will allow developers to take
their existing business infrastructure and deploy it on the
Web….”

“In addition to the C++ Builder 5 release, the company will make
its C++ compiler and command-line tools available via a free
download. The company also restated its commitment to porting
C++ Builder to Linux via its project Kylix, which Swindell said is
targeted at making sure applications developed today will work
easily with Linux in the future.
