I plan to learn C++. I want to make some programs,<br />
which &nbsp;will be used in PC-based real-time process control. The programs will communcate with I/O devices quite a lot and at the same time provide GUI &nbsp;for the user to monitor and control the process. I know both BCB and VC5 are based on Win95 and WinNT and I heard NT can be the platform for this application though it is not &quot;real&quot; real-time OS.<br />
<br />
So for this kind of application, which is better? Or lower versions such as Borland C++ 3.1 is enough?<br />
<br />
Thank you.<br />

Borland C++ builder and Visual C++, which to learn?

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
