If you open a .BPR file and a .CBX file in Notepad, you'll see that their contents are very different. I'm afraid they can't be automatically converted.

I just wanted to compile a C Dll, thta includes some BC packages also...I am not sure if these packages have VCL inside... This is some strange, because I searched in the Borland site and there is no place saing that there is no suport for these files. How can someone guess? What should I have to open this file? ( what is the name of product ?) What happens to the money I spent ? Thanks "Yu-Chen Hsueh" <ychsueh (AT) borland (DOT) com> wrote Quote: Carlos, You can't convert it.

Looks like you (unsurprisingly) assumed that BCBX was the next in the BCB line. Its not. At this stage your bpr's are quite useless with BCBX. -- Vesty. Back to top Yu-Chen Hsueh Guest Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2004 8:20 pm    Post subject: Re: How to open a bpr file? Carlos, C++Builder 6 and any version of C++Builder before that can open .BPR files. For the greatest compatibility, of course, the version should closely match the version that the project was created in. C++BuilderX doesn't use .BPR files. The analogous project file in C++BuilderX has a .CBX extension. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that you can't build your DLL in C++BuilderX. You can try recreating the project in C++BuilderX (thus generating a .CBX file), then adding your source units to it. Without knowing anything else, I would say that if it doesn't use the VCL, then there's a good chance it will build.

Packages are version-specific. You cannot share then between IDE versions. Even then, CBX is not the BCB IDE at all, and cannot use BCB projects or packages anyway. You are going to have to create a new DLL project and migrate your existing source code over to it. You would have to do that even when upgrading from one BCB version to another as well.

There was no answer to that question. Some speculate we are doomed, others say there is hope. Believe what you want...

It's worth following the .non-technical section of the newsgroup as this subject has been discussed at great length in there. To answer your question though no-one really knows. Or if they do know they aren't saying. Right now BCB+VCL users are in the dark. We haven't even been given all the information we were told (by Borland) that we would be given. Dropping a product is one thing but saying you'd provide upgrade/transition information then failing to do so is another. It's been well over six months since the end of BCB was announced (and about the same since they promised us another letter specifically for VCL developers) and we have still not been told anything concrete about the future of C++ VCL development. -- Andrue Cope [Bicester UK] Back to top Liz Albin Guest Posted: Wed Apr 21, 2004 12:39 pm    Post subject: Re: How to open a bpr file?
