Hi Narcís:

I moved the issue to the forum now for easier tracking. When upgrading from a well working TChart 8.02 to TChart 8.03 for some reason the C++ based projects with TChart stopped compiling and the projects are treated by the RAD 2007 IDE as .Net projects instead of being C++ projects. The only thing I did was install 8.03 and adjusted the PATH and LIBs to point to the correct places. The environment variable are correct too. After reinstalling 8.02 everything works as it should.

Below the output after installing 8.03 and below that the same project with 8.02:

Hi timhamel,

Thanks, it's much preferable posting technical issues here so that other clients can benefit from the information here. Also, my colleagues have the oportunity to participate in the discussions.

Regarding your issue, if I remember correctly, on 27th August you said you got that working in a demo project, didn't you? Could you please check this project's configuration and compare it with the project that fails now? I also got working the project you sent today in the same way. Is this project still failing at your end?

I don't remember if I asked that before, do you only have C++ Builder personality or do you have other RAD Studio 2007 personalities installed?

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

I am using the exact same demo project. I installed 8.03 previously on a cloned hard disc. And it compiled there. But now when installing again, I get the same problem as originally (which I think is a good thing from your point of view, since this can be reproduced). Nothing is touched after the install. Only running the installer and somehow something registers perhaps TChard as .Net components???

I have RAD 2007 with ALL personalities.

There is something probably wrong in your installer since re-installing 8.02 the system works fine. Installing 8.03, the system things C++ is .Net...

/Tim

Hi timhamel,

You have to change the path in tools/options. The problem is the ".." in
"C:\Program Files\Steema Software\TeeChart 8.03 for Delphi 2007\Delphi11\Lib\..\Include".

Best Regards
Bert Kreisel

The problem is not the path. I have done all possible path statements. And works fine with a simple install of 8.02. Install 8.03 you get see below. In any case, I can always make a source install, bypassing any installer. I just thought it would be good to solve this issue before the next patch is released. i have now installed it on another cloned disc and uninstalled 8.02 before installing 8.03. Same problem. The C# tools are called and NOT the BCC tools... The path in 8.02 is not any longer or shorter than in 8.03. Also, I had tried a variation with having the tool installed in C:\TChart803 which results in very short path. The problem is elsewhere... Something in the installer gets confused and somehow registers the TChart assemblies as being CPP or something like that...

Just for the record, this is how the make should look like (.Net should NOT be involved here...):

The line:

c:\program files\codegear\rad studio\5.0\bin\bcc32.exe

Should be called.... Not .Net Framework etc.... (as in the 8.03 case).

After spending some more time with this issue, without coming closer to a solution, though I did find that the .Net stuff involved here seems to be Borland/Codegeas choice of having moved to Microsoft's 2003 .Net based build system for XML...

Unfortunately no closer to a solution. 8.02 works perfect. 8.03 fails.

Hi timhamel,

I'd insist on checking and removing invalid paths at Tools->Options->Environment Options->C++ Options->Paths and
Directories->Include Path and Library Path as this works fine for us here with your project.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Narcís,

That was it. The installer had added the 2 invalid "" quoted and incorrect statements into those sections (sorry didn't save the second one, but it was also a quoted section, which is invalid)...

"C:\Program Files\Steema Software\TeeChart 8.03 for Delphi 2007\Delphi11\Lib\..\Include"


Now it compiled... Which is GREAT! It was a PATH thing. Well, can't be right all the time ... I assume you will fix that in your installer...

THANKS!
