RAD Studio 12.3: E2213 Bad packaged unit format

[Chau Chee Yang 0]

I encounter an issue with RAD Studio 12.3. Here are my steps:

 

1. Create a sample VCL application
2. Setup project to build with runtime package: vcl
3. Build project with debug build and it works
4. Switch build to release and build again, and it prompt

[dcc32 Fatal Error] Sample.dpr(5): E2213 Bad packaged unit format: t:\23.0\lib\Win32\release\vcl.dcp.Vcl.Forms - Expected version: 36.0, Windows Unicode(x86) Found version: 156.0, Windows Unicode(x86)

This happen to both 32 and 64 bits of Delphi IDE.

Isn't that the type of error you get when you try to link a .dcu that is for the wrong platform?

Yes.  The platform is valid and correct.  If I restart the IDE and switch to release immediately, it can build without issue.

 

In same IDE session, a debug build followed by release build will show the error.  Reverse the step by release build followed by debug build will show error too.  This happens to .exe application type.  For package (.bpl) it doesn't shows error.

Looks to me like some caching problem in the IDE. As you seem to have reproducible steps, you should file a bug report.
