Hi, I've just ported a dll project from BCB5 to BDS2006. However, when I build it, the following warning is produced: [Linker Warning] Image linked as an executable, but with a .DLL or .BPL extension. From the linker command line options, it's automatically trying to include a .dfm file which doesn't exist. Alas when I run the executable which links this library, very quick death is recieved: The Application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Does anyone have any ideas whats going wrong with the BCB5 to BDS2006 project upgrading??? mat

Did you import the existing BCB 5 project, or did you create a new project? If the former, then try the latter instead. Borland's project importer is still not perfect yet. Gambit

I just imported the BCB5 project. Any ideas when a patch for the importer will be available? I've got over 100 dll projects to migrate and really don't fancy manually creating each one!!! cheers, mat "Remy Lebeau \(TeamB\)" <no.spam@no.spam.com> wrote: > >"matt" <m@nospam.com> wrote in message >news:43e3311b$1@newsgroups.borland.com... > >> I've just ported a dll project from BCB5 to BDS2006.

I have a similar problem like you but at runtime when I create dynamically a Form with new. It raises a EResNotFound Exception. With BCB5, BCB6 version worked fine. The project is large to create again (DLLs, EXE) adding the files and setting the options for the compiler, it could be a headache!!! matt escribi�: > I just imported the BCB5 project.

No, and I would not wait for one anyway. Borland has had importer problems in EVERY version of C++Builder, and the workaround is always the same in each one - make a new project fresh. Gambit

Found a suitable work-around for people who have this problem. In the linker "other options", enter "-Tpd". Still doesn't explain why borland got this wrong for one dll out of about 80 I imported... mat "Remy Lebeau \(TeamB\)" <no.spam@no.spam.com> wrote: > >"matt" <mathew.maher@anite.com> wrote in message >news:43e76022$1@newsgroups.borland.com... > >> I just imported the BCB5 project. > >Like I mentioned earlier, try creating a new project fresh instead and >migrate your source code over to it. > >> Any ideas when a patch for the importer will be available? > >No, and I would not wait for one anyway.
