Borland's new turbos programming tools are divided into two editions: Explorer and professional. The former is free of charge, but there are restrictions on its use. The main restriction is that it cannot install third-party controls (including some extension controls that come with Borland). Now with turbotweaks, this problem can be solved.

Download this product on the turbotweaks homepage: http://alvarogp.googlepages.com/index.htm. When writing this tutorial, the version number is v1.12. Download and obtain a RAR compressed file.

Decompress a directory to get a description file readme.txt and an executable file: turbotweaks.exe.

If you are running Turbo C ++ exploere, exit first. Run the turbotweaks.exe file and perform the following steps.

　

Step 1: Remove. Net-related ide packages:

(Two ide packages to be closed with. NET are not selected)

This step has nothing to do with removing the functional limitations of Turbo C ++ exploere, just to make the Turbo C ++ startup "a little faster ".

Step 2: load the designed package

Switch to the design time packages page and check all options. The reason why many packages were not checked in the past is that these control packages cannot be used in the free version.

But it does not mean you can use it. The next step is the most important.

Step 3: Remove functional limitations

Switch to the "advanced tweaks" Page and complete the following settings: Find "Naughty tweaks !" Group, and then select "Remove Turbo exploere limitations ".

(Mark "Remove Turbo exploere limitations)

Now, we have completed the most crucial step. Thanks to turbotweaks.

Don't worry. There is one more thing to do.

Step 4: Solve a bug in IDE by the way

On the "advanced tweaks" page in step 3, locate the "tabstop bug" on the top and select "Fix tabstop bug ".

　

End

Click OK to exit turbotweaks. Running Turbo C ++ explorer now -- does it feel slower to start? Yes. Because we have added more design control packages in step 2, there will be loss. Let's see what we have:

After entering Turbo C ++, a new "VCL forms application" (that is, we often say Windows Application Engineering ). Then, in the control bar, you can see a lot of control groups at once!

(The yellow part is all new)

Some netizens who have been studying this course must have thought of Indy? In TC, Indy is already in the latest version. Please try to write a hello internet version of Turbo C ++ exploere.

Finally, I am not responsible for turbotweaks's legal actions. This article is only a learning material for the software. Please think twice before performing the above operations ~~~. In addition, Turbo C ++ professional is more powerful and has official support. In addition, the price is not high. It is recommended that students who need it purchase it after learning.
