I have a project created and compiled successfully in C++ Builder 5.0. I
converted it to Developer Studio 2006. What is the appropriate replacement
for that component?

I noticed that the entire group "FastNet" has been removed. Does anyone have
any suggestion as to what component to use to send an email?

Borland has been bundling Indy (http://www.indyproject.org) with the IDE
since BCB v6. You can use its TIdSMTP component.

Has that component been updated lately for BCB? I used that component
in a service app and had no end of trouble with it. Every now and then
it would not return from a Send() command (IIRC), no exceptions nothing.
It was being used with a dial-up connection and a slightly flakey
ISP, other people have reported similar problems when the conenction
isn't 100% reliable.

Indy 9 has been. Indy 10 is still in the works as far as C++ support goes.

Indy works just fine in services.

The the underlying socket itself was likely frozen at the OS layer. There
is nothing Indy can do about frozen API functions.

All I know is that it called TidSMTP::Send() and occasionally my service
would freeze. The only way to restart it was to reboot the server.
Customers weren't happy. I changed to the synapse SMTP component and
it's been working like a charm ever since. |
