Hi there,
I am using the bcc32 compiler provided as a free download by borland. I would like to know how to use it to build and compile apps containing vcl components. I have tried to re-compile an old windows app built using the bcb builder IDE but cannot link together all the .obj files since I keep getting the error:
"linker error: unable to resolve call to _main in c0x32.obj"
any advice on this appreciated,
Thanks,
bigSteve

It thinks you're compiling a console application, not a windows application.
Try
bcc32 /?
to see what option(s) you need to flag a windows build.
I've no idea whether the free download supports VCL or not.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
Use -W to compile a windows app.
bcc32 -W
Dear All,
I tried using the -W parameter as suggested but still I cannot link the .obj files together. This is the new error message:
"linker error: unable to resolve call to winmain in c0x32.obj"
Any thoughts,
regards,

UNICODE WinMain() perhaps?
Do you even define a main() or WinMain() in your own source?
Kinda fishy that the linker is saying "winmain" instead of "WinMain".
gg
I use bcc32 -tW winapp.cpp and have no problems.
Do not make direct eye contact with me.
