bcx

BCX can refer to several things, most commonly a file extension and a programming language. As a file extension, BCX typically denotes a file created by the Borland C++ compiler or a related Borland development environment. These files can contain source code, compiled object code, or project configuration settings. The exact nature of a BCX file depends on the context in which it is used within the Borland ecosystem.

Another prominent meaning of BCX is as a programming language. This BCX is a BASIC-to-C converter, often used to translate BASIC code into C code. This process allows older BASIC programs to be modernized, compiled with modern C compilers, and potentially integrated with other C-based systems. It provides a bridge for developers working with legacy BASIC codebases. The BCX converter facilitates the transition by handling the syntax and semantic differences between the two languages. While not as widespread as some other programming languages, BCX has served a niche purpose in enabling the use and modernization of BASIC applications.
