Borland Developer Network

We would like to welcome you to Embarcadero – the new home of Delphi, C++ builder, and RAD Studio. Embarcadero acquired the Borland developer tools division (called CodeGear) in July 2008. Since then, we have been committed to advancing, innovating and improving these development tools.

We are contacting you today to let you know that we have moved your Borland Developer Network (BDN) or CodeGear Developer Network (CDN) user account into the Embarcadero Developer Network. You can check out the Embarcadero Developer Network at http://edn.embarcadero.com.

In both EDN and the Embarcadero corporate site, you can find lots of information on former Borland/CodeGear development tools now being developed by Embarcadero. Embarcadero is investing heavily in these products. Since acquiring them in 2008, we have revamped the tools from top to bottom and released three major versions including the latest RAD Studio XE2, and C++Builder XE2 releases.

Some of the major innovations, additions and improvements include:

  • Full Unicode support throughout
