"BCC 6.3" Released

[andijahja]

Hello,

The new Borland Compiler version 6.3 is released packed with Embarcadero RAD Studio XE 2011. It is a better Borland family compiler, IMHO.
Download and Install Trial Version here: http://www.embarcadero.com/products/rad-studio

Andi,

Would you mind to create a ZIP file with just the BCC 6.3 required files ?

It may greatly ease the way to test it to many users, thanks

As a note, to pacify warnings, you have to modify a line refers to definition of "UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER" to "(void)" in WINNT.H as follows:

Code: Select all

#if ! defined(lint)
#define UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(P)          (void)(P)
// #define UNREFERENCED_PARAMETER(P)          (P)

Andi,

Thanks!

Porque me dara error en uuid.lib, alguien sabe, ya copie la uuid.lib al directorio de las lib pero me da error igual.

Gracias


Solucionado, me faltaba los archivos de configuracion, inlink32.cfg y bcc32.cfg.
Impresionante poder compilar nuevamente todo con una version mas nueva y
no tener inconvenientes.

Saludos

Hello Ehab,

__rwstd::__rw_stdexcept_NoNamedException is C++ exception specific to Borland C++ version 5.5 and no longer exist in the later versions.
To resolve the problem, you should recompile all your C files with BCC 6.3.

[Enrico Maria Giordano]

I noticed an increasing in the EXE size using this new compiler. What is the exact reason? Is there a way to reduce it back?

You must be comparing with 5.5, else the exe of 6.3 must be smaller that other previous versions as shown below:

harbour.exe compiled with different version of BCC:

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\55
09/27/2010 06:53 PM 614,912 harbour.exe

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\58
09/27/2010 06:53 PM 680,960 harbour.exe

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\59
09/27/2010 06:53 PM 683,008 harbour.exe

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\61
09/27/2010 06:53 PM 725,504 harbour.exe

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\62
09/27/2010 06:54 PM 629,760 harbour.exe

Directory of D:\DEV\bin\63
09/27/2010 06:54 PM 627,200 harbour.exe

The reason of increasing in application size must be due to that versions newer than 5.5 no longer uses RougueWave http://www.roguewave.com/ runtime. I have no knowledge to decrease the exe size
