I just got ProtoGen, but I am still waiting for my upgrade to BC++3.1&AF. My Initial feelings regarding ProtoGen however, are somewhat mixed. The main problem I have with it, is that I would like to use the Borland Custom Controls and my own custom buttons in my applications, but ProtoGen only seems to pick up the buttons defined by Borland in their DLL. Presumably once I actually try to generate an App, the dialogs will load the correct Button resources, but ProtoGen does not! As far as prototyping an application quickly, it seems to work pretty well. In general, I think if I had to choose between ProtoGen and the Application Frameworks, I would take the Application Frameworks. I think they'll save you more coding in the long run than will ProtoGen by itself will.
