Summary: I'm able to compile a RAD Studio 2009 project using MSBuild on a Build Server using the RAD Studio Command Prompt, but not with a batch file. This same batch file, however, works successfully on my workstation. On the server the error returned is: MSB4057. I'm just learning how to use MSBuild with RAD Studio and am trying to...
I'm getting this worthless error in my code. it's very consistant and restarting the compiler hasn't done anything. Has anyone else ever solved this? while( int CharPos = _Message.Pos(_What) ) { _Message.Insert( _With, CharPos); _Message.Delete(CharPos + 1, 1); } ...
I'm curious about what it takes to program for mobile devices (Windows Mobile 6.1) and if I can use the IDE's we're already used to (RAD Studio 2009). Is there a Mobile Development Community around where Delphi or C++Builder users can learn from? Are there differences in development techniques, like: Drivers, Memory Limits, Device ...

I've recently began to upgrade my RAD Studio 2007 project to RAD Studio 2009. One thing I noticed is when seemingly simple code all of a sudden failed to compile. Example Code: class CButtonPopupMenu { // Snip public: void Init( TButton* SrcButton ) { SrcButton->OnClick = OnButtonClick; } private: void __...

Hi I need to migrate to RAD Studio and have this installed on a new workstation. At the moment I still need to develop with Delphi 6 until we get all the necessary control updates and sort out the version control. So my question is can I just install Delphi 6 on the same machine with no adverse impact for either product? Thanks in adv...

I would like to select the compiler optimizations to generate the fastest possible application. Which of the following settings should I set to true? Dead store elimination Eliminate duplicate expressions within basic blocks and functions Enable loop induction variable and strength reduction Enable pentium instruction scheduling Expan...
I have been stuggling to get the MSBuild to successfully build my .dproj file for the last few days on a build machine. First, I needed the EnvOptions.proj file from the developer's machine, which got me clear of the missing system.pas file, but now I am getting a compile error for a missing .dcu C:\Program Files\CodeGear\RAD Studio...
I just noticed that some of my new Delphi controls get installed in the Public Documents folder in windows 7 (TMS Smooth controls and Virtual Treeview). Is there a reason for this, is this a convention or a few way of doing things or something that the operating system does. Is there a place where I can set the root of my Source con...
Is there anything equivalent to #pragma once for Codegear RAD Studio 2009? I am using the precompiled header wizard and I would like to know if it is still necessary to use include guards when including header files? ...
Are 'redundant include guards' necessary in Codegear RAD Studio 2009? Is the compiler smart enough to deal with this on it's own? For example, I might have the following 'include guard' in foo.h: #ifndef fooH #define fooH // ... declaration here #endif and the following 'redundant include guard' in use_foo.h: #ifndef fooH #inclu...
I'm currently going through a process of refactoring includes to reduce compile time, and I've come across the following compile error: [C++ Error] some_class.cpp(53): E2015 Ambiguity between 'IID_IDropTarget' and 'Virtualtrees::IID_IDropTarget' The line of code it points to is: if (iid == IID_IUnknown || iid == IID_IDropTarget) If...
I found this line of code when upgrading a C++ Builder project to RAD Studio 2009: mProcessLength->Text.printf("%d",mStreamLength); It doesn't compile in 2009, however what is the intent of this line and what is a better equivalent? Given that mProcessLength->Text is now a wchar_t*. ...
Are there any tips to speed up debugging in Codegear? For example, when I set breakpoints it can sometimes take a long time for the IDE to be active once the breakpoint is reached and likewise when I hit F8(stepover). ...
I use Firefox as my web browser, mostly for access to add-ins such as Flashblock and No-script. I noticed yesterday that the RAD Studio internal browser used for the Welcome Page etc has scripting and Active X etc enabled. Is there a way to disable scripting, or better still, block all access to non-local sources in the built-in browser?...
