hi,
i use borland builder 5. I have a coworker who wants to be able to
compile code using a makefile only. Hence, I downloaded the
freecommandlinetools and installed it on his computer. I exported
the makefile from my project. However, when I call 'MAKE' on his
machine I get the error "Cannot find file: 'vcl50.bpi'".
However, this is a command-line program and does not require the
Visual Component Library or anything like that. I went to
project->options and unchecked the 'build with runtime packages'
and then exported the makefile again, but it gave me the same
error. How can I get it to compile without these .BPI files?
Thanks

Edit the MAK file.
Remove all the garbage that has nothing to do with compiling and
linking your app (such as references to vcl50)

BCB doesn't know you want to export to a non-BCB environment.
