Using RemObjects SDK with C++Builder
This is an Article about RemObjects SDK for Delphi
(This page is considered "good" on a technical level, but is pending review for grammar and typos)
Remobjects DataAbstract for Delphi can be used to create both Server and Client applications using C++Builder.
The following versions of C++ Builder are known to be compatible with the current Remobjects DataAbstract release
- C++Builder 2007
- C++Builder 2009
- C++Builder 2010
- C++Builder XE
- C++Builder XE2
- C++Builder XE3
However, when you first install the RO DA, C++Builder projects will not be able to access any DA VCL Components at design-time.
To correct this for corresponded C++Builder version , follow the steps below:
- Install the RO DataAbstract as normal.
- Start the IDE, and open the RO SDK project group "BuildPackages_D*".
- Select "RemObjects_Core_D*.bpl".
- Select Project/Options, view Linker options.
- Set "Linker Output" to "Generate all C++ Builder files".
- Set an output directory for .hpp .bpi .obj/.lib files.
- Build "RemObjects_Core_D*.bpl".
- Install "RemObjects_Core_D*.bpl".
- Make these steps with other packages in this project group .
- Open the RO DataAbstract project group "BuildPackages_D*".
- Make the same operations as for RO SDK.
- Close and restart the IDE.
- Select Tools/Options, C++ Options/Path and directories.
- Add corresponded output directories here.
You should now be able to see all SDK and DataAbstract components in the component palette in C++Builder projects as well as Delphi ones.
Known Issues
When building Server applications, you will see warnings similar to the one below for each service you provide. these can, I think, be safely ignored.
