E2247 error TPrinter orientation is not acccessible

[Bachatero]

Hi all,

I use the following command in Borland C++ Builder:

Printer()->SetOrientation(poLandscape);

but tyhe following error code is displayed:

[C++ Error] Main.cpp(1087): E2247 '_fastcall TPrinter::SetOrientation(TPrinterOrientation)' is not accessible

Any help would be very appriciated.

Is SetOrientation a public method? How did you pick that function to call, does documentation say it should be allowed (I'm not familiar with this Borland code)?

[Bachatero]

No, it is not a public method. It is a privite method.

void __fastcall SetOrientation(TPrinterOrientation Value);

Then you cannot call it unless you are inside a TPrinter member function or friend function.

Perhaps there is another function that is public that can help you change the orientation. The SetOrientation function is only meant to be used by the TPrinter class itself.
