I think it is saying 5 hours and some minutes. Does anyone else have trouble with GetIt servers today?

I started a new static LIB project on C++ Builder 12.1. In Project Option, Project Properties, General where has 'Run C++ compiler in a separate process' gone? Also where is 'Number of subprocesses'? When I built the LIB I had the message unknown argument --jobs=1, which is related to the missing options.

With the 12.1 64-bit modern compiler the include directory windows\crtl is omitted. I am assuming it has problems that could not be resolved for that verion of C++ Builder. Is this fixed with 12.2? Is there any way to use gettime and getdate of the header dos.h with 12.1 64-bit modern?

I have noticed the option 'Run C++ compiler in a separate process' with 12.1 that should not be seen will occasionally appear.

When I compile a unit for Windows 64-bit Modern with 'Enable all warnings' on and get many warnings and hints the dialog box says there are 0 warnings and 0 hints.

I am getting some compiling done now. Is per file overrides set by right clicking on a project file and selecting edit local options? I haven't looked at this before.

Is there any way to remove the arguments?

I have found that the parallel processing feature is removed with 12.1 Clang 64 modern and is brought back and enhanced with 12.2. I also have a message about an unknown argument -PD. I don't feel that 12.1 was tested before release with static library projects.

Some of these suggestions don't apply to C++ Builder.

I am using C++ Builder 11. alignas does not see,m to fully implemented. It is a C++11 feature so it isn't that new. This code produces an error saying alignas cannot be applied to types. It does seem to be valid code. template < typename T > struct CreateStatic { static T* Create() { static char alignas(std::max_align_t) staticMemory_[sizeof(T)] ; return new (&staticMemory_) T; } static void Destroy(T* const p) { p->~T(); } };

That is the bug, thanks. alignas does compile with the classic compiler so that list could be incomplete.

I have installed a trial of C++ Builder 12.1. The bug is still present with Clang 15.

I don't use the classic compiler. I can compile all of the unit this is in with the classic compiler and it has some code of C++11 and later. I think you said somewhere it only supports C++03 but I am not seeing that. The message is 'alaignas' attribute cannot be applied to types. Taken literally that doesn't make sense. An alias declaration can have it and they have types. alignas(T) is an improvement to the original code.

The startup script errors seem to have stopped.

If I make a small console application without saving it I can build and run it once. Than I get [ilink32 Error] Fatal: Could not open .\Win32\Debug\Project1.exe (error code 1224). This always happens now with Builder 11.3. If I use the Clean option I get [Delete Error] Unable to delete file ".\Win32\Debug\Project1.exe". Access to the path 'C:\Users\Fraser Ross\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\Projects\Win32\Debug\Project1.exe' is denied.

I've been told it will be fixed in the next version.

I appear to have solved this by shutting down Webroot SecureAnywhere and restarting it.

The file appears to remain open in C++ Builder. Even after closing the IDE it is still open.

I have tried to install the newly available community edition which is 11.0. The Embarcadero site tells me: Your download should begin immediately for C++Builder Community Edition 11.3 Alexandria installer. My serial number does not seem to be matching to the installed software. It says something about Delphi which is another incorrect thing when I try to register. Has someone made a complete mess of things? My e-mail with the serial number gives a link to an installation program for 11.3 : RADStudio_11_3_esd_28_13236.exe

10.1 Berlin started ok but now its back to displaying the error messages. I still have the stripe on the starting picture.

This is my faulty startup picture. It still has the stripe after reinstalling.

That would be laughed at. It is probably itself or Delphi. Does anyone have 10.1 Berlin installed? I have been getting many script errors while starting it recently and after reinstalling it. I also have a blank strip across the startup picture that is still there after reinstalling.

This is an old conversation but you are giving the wrong idea about extern "C". It is the linkage specifier.

Does the project option 'Show header dependencies in project manager' work with the community edition? I was trying the option but my cbproj file got corrupted and I've had to retrieve a backup.

When I run my program from the IDE of 11.3 I am finding that _argc is 0 when I have not set any parameters. So _argv[0] is not the program name as is the documented functionality. I've not seen this before with any other version of C++ Builder. If I set a parameter then _argc will be 1 and _argv[0] will be the parameter so there is not an error in how I use these variables. I made a small test program but the problem would not show up.
