brcc32 and rc file format...
Hello,
Delphi 10.2
I am trying to compile an RC file included with the project.
{$R 'ResStr.res' 'ResStr.rc'}
Regardless of what I put in the RC file I get [on the first line]:
[BRCC32 Error] ResStr.rc(1): Fatal error Expecting resource name or resource type name
Ideas or anyone have a sample RC file that complies without error?
Thanks,
Mark
It's better maintained and supports more features. The RC format is a proprietary Microsoft format with no formal definition so Microsoft will always be able to support it better.
There are some RC features that are not supported by brcc32 but I can't remember which right now.
brcc32 also has some features that are not supported by the Microsoft compiler, but it would be stupid to use those today. They're from the time when Borland still was contender (i.e. Borland C++ 5 era).
Yes, but if you had included the file then we wouldn't have had to guess.
