-## Borland C++ compiler
-
-Ensure that your build environment is properly set up to use the compiler and
-associated tools. PATH environment variable must include the path to bin
-subdirectory of your compiler installation, eg: `c:\Borland\BCC55\bin`
-
-It is advisable to set environment variable BCCDIR to the base path of the
-compiler installation.
-
- set BCCDIR=c:\Borland\BCC55
-
-In order to build a plain vanilla version of curl and libcurl run the
-following command from curl's root directory:
-
- make borland
-
-To build curl and libcurl with zlib and OpenSSL support set environment
-variables `ZLIB_PATH` and `OPENSSL_PATH` to the base subdirectories of the
-already built zlib and OpenSSL libraries and from curl's root directory run
-command:
-
- make borland-ssl-zlib
-
-libcurl library will be built in 'lib' subdirectory while curl tool is built
-in 'src' subdirectory. In order to use libcurl library it is advisable to
-modify compiler's configuration file bcc32.cfg located in
-`c:\Borland\BCC55\bin` to reflect the location of libraries include paths for
-example the '-I' line could result in something like:
-
- -I"c:\Borland\BCC55\include;c:\curl\include;c:\openssl\inc32"
-
-bcc3.cfg `-L` line could also be modified to reflect the location of of
-libcurl library resulting for example:
-
- -L"c:\Borland\BCC55\lib;c:\curl\lib;c:\openssl\out32"
-
-In order to build sample program `simple.c` from the docs\examples
-subdirectory run following command from mentioned subdirectory:
-
- bcc32 simple.c libcurl.lib cw32mt.lib
-
-In order to build sample program simplessl.c an SSL enabled libcurl is
-required, as well as the OpenSSL libeay32.lib and ssleay32.lib libraries.
-
-In order to build sample program `sslbackend.c`, an SSL enabled libcurl
-is required.
