Hello,

Sorry for the cross-posting, but I just realized there is a newsgroup
specifically for migration problems.

I am porting applications from BCB5 to BDS2006 (C++), and on some apps, but
not all, I'm getting the error below.

[Linker Fatal Error] Fatal: Unable to open file 'FXCSTRFUNC.OBJ'

- There are no unresolved functions, just this one linker error.
- There are no warnings that seem to be related.
- There are no explicit references to such a file, library, or object
anywhere in the source or project files.
- There is no such file anywhere on my disk.
- I'm building clean, i.e. deleting all existing obj's, csm's, tds's, etc.

I've been looking at this for two weeks and I'm stumped. I've got two very
similar projects, one that gets the error and one that does not. The two
projects have the same include and library paths, so I think they're linking
all the same library files, etc. and I can't find any differences that seem
to relate to this error.

I saw the recommendation above to create a new project and add all of the
files, so I think I'll try that, but does anyone know what is wrong, or what
to do next to trouble-shoot? There must be a way to determine what source
file requires that file, or includes something that requires it.

Thanks,

Joe
