If only VC++ ever had a form builder for C++ like C++ Builder has been doing for 30 years.

Resource editor for dialogs isn't the same as the C++ Builder experience.

Whatever you say.

...is correct. Visual C++ has a visual resource editor, but this isn't what C++ Builder does. C++ Builder edits live objects, you declare a class with its properties (this needs extensions to the C++ language) and during design time the object is instantiated and edited visually through the property editor ("object inspector"). This works for both visual (buttons, controls, etc) and non-visual objects.

The difference between what VC++ does and what C++ Builder (and Delphi) does is massive and at a very fundamental level.

Cool.

Visual editors for Windows resources in MFC aren't the same as C++ Builder VB like capabilities.
