Hi, everytime i write a resource file (.rc) and drop it over the bcc32.exe, nothin happens. if i drop it over rc.exe, it gives me a .res file, which doesnt work in delphi.
so what do i have to write in the .rc file, to get my .res built correctly at the bcc32? (example pls) lets say i wanna have abc.wav, which is on my desktop. thanks
It's brcc32.exe that you want, not bcc32.exe.
That should produce your .res file for you.
However, you could also look into changing your {$R} directive slightly so that you don't need to manually compile your .rc file.
IIRC, you can use {$R yourfile.res yourfile.rc} in your source, and Delphi should compile the .rc for you.
If you have D2007 or newer, just add your RC file to the project manager...
The RC file is a simple text file where you declare your resources and the corresponding files (with path if needed) like:
SANTA BITMAP "SANTA.BMP"
SOUND RCDATA "SOUND.WAV"
In D2009 or newer, you can just add the wav to the project manager.
And the easiest way to "add" is to drag your file and drop it there.
