Sorry, I didn't mention that this dynamic libraries hide all VCL code and export functionality through simple, compatible with C, interfaces. Also main program will still be created in plain C++, not in BDS2007, but it will have to load dll libraries created in C++Builder 5 and 2007. 

I'd like to know whether runtime libraries from VCL 5 and VCL 10 can coexist. I'd like to know whether memory manager BorlndMM.dll from C++Builder 2007 can be used by libraries created by C++Builder 5 without problem.
