Hi

I have followed all the steps of instruction as per the readme. However, the glitch is while compiling a file. Where should MySource be created?

Should I always navigate to the bin folder to execute any file or to ensure that bcc runs? I get teh basic error of not able to include the header file for eg- iostream.h. Can anyone please point me to the right direction?

Thank you in advance

I assume that you are using the downloadable free command line tools.
Those are covered in the
group borland.public.cppbuilder.commandlinetools

By following the instructions you placed the compiler's BIN directory in the
system path so you do not need to be in that directory to use the compiler.
As shown int he instructions the location of the include files is the
directory specified by the -I directive in the bcc32.cfg file.

Create a directory for your project anywhere on the disk drive. Make that
directory the default (change to that directory). Run the compiler and
linker.
