14-day trial of Delphi 2009 and C++Builder 2009 Architect edition
English, French, German and Japanese
During the install process, you can choose to install Delphi, C++Builder or both.
To install the Delphi and C++Builder Trial:
- Request a trial serial number using the Send Activation button on the left side of this page
- Click the download button to download the installer .zip file
- Unzip the installer .zip file to an empty directory on your hard drive
- Run install.exe
- The install launcher will appear with buttons to install multiple items that are part of the product
- When prompted, enter the serial number for the product that you received via email after clicking the "Send Activation" button on the left side of the trial download page
- To install the online help, you need to return to the install launcher and select the online help button in a separate operation from the product install
The trial is a multi-part download. You download and run the install launcher which will in turn download additional files based on your feature selection. The total download size may be up to 1GB including up to 500MB for prerequisites like the Microsoft Windows Platform SDK and Internet Explorer (if you don't already have them installed) and up to 500MB for the Delphi and C++Builder install files, depending on the features you select.
You will be prompted to enter your serial number during the process. An Internet connection is required during installation. After installation, you must register your trial version before you can use the product.
也许是因为Codegear另换东家的原因，使它变得更为吝啬起来。原本之前的Codegear Rad 2007是可以整张光碟镜像下载的，而如今却只能下载一个15MB的在线安装包，试用期从30天减到了14天。并且使人们等了如此长的时间，并且易主的Codegear并没有像网站上写的那样首信，因为在我填写后个人信息时，并没得到他们准备好Trial版的通知。
世上没有免费的午餐，但是做为开发软体的Codegear Rad Studio如果没有开发者在大力支持，它真的很难适用于这个飞速发展的科技市场。经测试Trial版并没有提供Delphi.net 2009，只有32位版的Delphi2009和C++2009。由于没有对64位处理机的支持，使得这款软件失去了很多市场支持。不过，在 Borland的蓝图中可以清楚看到下一代的Codegear RAD Studio会对x86-64指令支持，但不清楚，Embarcacero是否会遵循其路线呢？
