BP Turbo Vision sources

Thu, 24 Apr 1997 02:30:36 +0100 (WET DST)



Hello,

I collected this discussion from comp.os.msdos.programmer.turbvision.
Somebody claims to have gotten permission from Borland to release the BP
Tvision sources to the public "as long as they are not sold". GNU Pascal
is definately the "not for money" category so this may be interesting to
us. Having Turbo Vision available would make it much easier to write
attractive applications, at least for the djgpp/dos port of GPC.

But I do think we should wait and see what happens next....

Greetings,

JanJaap

Hi,

for C / C++ ?

Thanks in advance,
Marco

Yes there are. I think you can get them perhaps through your local 
Borland branch. 
But when I was traing to get source code for Delhi, the staff behaind 
the phone was confused when I sad source code of delhi component and 
was not able to help me.

Having source code can be very usefull. For instance just for look, or 
for making some private part of objict not private, because I neet it. 
In my case I wanted to change object Tview and with it all his 
descendats. I wanted make there somethink like object inspector in 
Delphi, but more stupid.

TV source code comes with BP7. As far as I know is the TV Pascal code not
free as the C code already is. So I would be suprised if there is a chance
to download it.

BP7 came with the source code to pascal TV.  I think TP6 did as well, but
I'm not positive (I gave away my tp6).  I have the sources from BP7, but
I haven't read whether Borland has given them to the public domain along
with the c++ version or not.  If they have, I can make the sources available
from my web page.  Anyone have a .borland.com URL that shows the public
domaining of TV?

A few weeks ago I spoke to someone from Borland Germany and he told me that
the sources are free as long as they are not sold. It's definatley allowed
to publish them e.g. on the Web.

In that case, if someone would please send me the Pascal sources, I would
be happy to put them on the TVPlus web site as a courtesy.

Would someone on the newsgroup please forward this request to the mailing
list?  My posts never make it through.  I think I was put on review or
something for posting the pointer to the FAQ too many times without
changing it.  Problem is, there's no listowner to take me off review, and
I've written to the sysop without getting an answer.

Are you sure about this? There has been no official word on this from
Borland 
USA, do you know where I can get more information, since each time I e-mail 
Borland, I do not get any reply!

Thats what the guy from Borland Germany told me: it's ok for Borland to
post them in newsgroups when explaining something. So it will be also ok to
make them somewhere accessable on the net so one don't have to resend them
everytime in a newsgroup.
