    Need To Download C++

    Can anyone give me a link to download Borland C++ version 5.02? I don't care if it's a torrent or not, and it has to be precisely version 5.02.
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm not sure where you can get an old version of Borland builder, you should probably contact Borland directly to see if they will sell you an older version. Certainly no one here is going to provide you with links to illegal copies so I wouldn't try asking about that ever again unless of course you don't mind if your account gets banned.

      I'm defenitely not going to pay for anything.
      If it's an old version then there has to be legal free copies to download right?
      Can't anyone give me a link to download?

        Why would you think that an old version is somehow suddenly free? Windows XP is an old version of the Microsoft Windows operating system but you can't download it for free.

        You can maybe see if there is a 30 day trial to download from the borland site but I looked and couldn't find the version you were looking for.

          If you google for "Borland 5 download" some appropriate links show up.

          kind regards,

            Borland C++ 5.5 is available as a free download at the Borland site so you may well be able to get a copy through there.

            Another option is to log onto Borlands developer forums and ask as someone there may well know a place you can get a legitimate copy of that compiler.

              Those are both 5.5 not 5.0.2.

                That's true but I have a feeling I have seen 5.02 somewhere in the last few months and I would have started from Google or the Borland website.

                  For version 5.02 I got about a hundred links immediately, but they are all torrent downloads. Well I guess they'll just have to do.
                  Thanks...

                    I didn't find anything at all.

                      That's fine, what you do with your own google searches on your own computer is your business, just don't bring discussions of illegal torrents and where to download software for free here.
