BCB5 / Delphi5 to BCB6

Hi everybody,

I developed quite large projects in BCB5 Pro that make large use of
code written in Delphi5. Such delphi code also uses many Delphi5 Pro VCL
components.
Also some third party components are used (mainly TeeChart).
Is there any compatibility problem migrating such projects into BCB6 ?

And what could happen if at the same time I migrate the
delphi-written code from D5 to D2005 ?
Does somebody know up to which Delphi's version
Delphi VCL components can still be used in BCB6 projects ?

Thanks in advance

Piero

Hi Piero,

As far as TeeChart concerns you shouldn't have any problem as version
shipped in BCB5, BCB6, Delphi5 and Delphi 2005 is the same (or almost
the same).

Piero,

Certainly you could move your BCB v5 code to v6.

I don't use TeeChart. But I expect they support BCB v6. Check for each component you 
are using. If they are old versions that came out before Delphi v6 and BCB v6 then 
you might need to upgrade them to newer versions to work with BCB v6.

If you are calling Delphi code in DLLs and the C++ code doesn't know the language it 
is calling into them you could move the Delphi code to 2005.

BUT if you are making VCL controls in Delphi to use in BCB then I think that Delphi 
code has to be compileable in BCB v6. So it would need to NOT use any Delphi 
extensions from post-v6.
