TconDesktop now has properties that return the paths to all the special (shell)
folders and can read and restore the position of the desktop icons. Also, some previously private methods
have been made protected so they can be used by descendant classes.
Borland is going on tour to show the advanced usability and productivity offered
by Delphi 2006's new tool-set. We'll also discuss the latest initiatives that are making Borland and our
developer community bigger, better, and stronger than ever.
If you are going to be at JavaOne 2006, stop by the Borland booth (booth #220)
and see demos of JBuilder 2006 and previews of JBuilder "Peloton" (JBuilder on Eclipse). At the booth you
can say hello to R&D, Developer Relations, and Developer Support team members, get a "DevCo" update,
and tell us what you are doing with JBuilder.
DonationCoder.com and Borland announced a donationware programming contest
featuring Borland's C++ Builder RAD tool for Microsoft Windows. The contest runs for approximately three
months, from 10th April to 14th July. Over $15,000 in programming-related prizes will be awarded.
Borland announced today that on 3rd April 2006 it received a notice from The Nasdaq
Stock Market stating that Borland is not in compliance with Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) because it has not
timely filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended 31st December 31 2005.
Take a quick survey regarding your preferences in relation to developer
conferences. Your feedback will help Borland continue to build great technical training events and
conferences for our community.
Borland's chief executive has stressed his company's commitment to developers,
by promising to pass the soon-to-be divested tools business to a "caring" investor. Tod Nielsen told
EclipseCon attendees that Borland is screening companies who will invest in and drive the IDE business
forward, rather than looking for a "Lex Luthor" who will destroy products like Delphi and JBuilder.
IDC, an independent world-wide market research company, is conducting a
worldwide survey to get a developer's perspective on open source software in collaboration with several large
IT vendors, including Borland. We encourage your participation in this survey regardless of what role you
may play in the software development life cycle, and whether you are an individual contributor or a manager.
Join Borland for a discussion with a panel of luminaries from their development
and database community. The panel will discuss current and future opportunities of the development tools
and database products as part of a spun off entity (DevCo).
Borland has updated its Windows development environment, while stressing its
continued commitment to delivering updated IDEs for developers. The company has announced availability of
its C++ Builder 2006 rapid application development environment, part of the overall Borland Developer Studio
suite.
