- One huge problem I am experiencing with BC++ 5.0 (with patch) that I
- haven't seen posted is the terminal error while simply editing a source
- file in the IDE. I have experienced numerous (very frustrating) abends
- of the IDE while editing the source. At first I thought maybe there
- was a problem with the Win95 patch (from Microsoft), but the same error
- occurs in NT3.51 as well. Occasionally, the compile process will just hang
- as well.
-
- I followed the installation notes to the letter (from the first time).
- Borland's bug list doesn't mention this error as far as I can tell. The
- interesting part is that sometimes the error is reported from bcw.dll and
- other times from bcwedit.dll, yet the error is always triggered from
- editing text in the source file. Argh!
-
- Am I the only one experiencing this problem? I have installed 5.0 and the
- patch at least 3 times (although the deinstall program hangs, too) by
- removing the entries by hand from the registry. I am just about to hang
- this program up and ask for a refund.
