Embarcadero C++ 11.x

[DaleBarnes42]

Has anyone successfully been able to get this TV to compile under Embarcadero C++ 11x ? I am really new to C++ and looking for any helpful hints. Not looking for be given the package that works (unless you want to share) but just sitting here tinkering and wanting to give this a try.

Thanks again for any hits.

Hi Dale!

Around two years ago I gave Embarcadero's RAD Studio a try. I don't remember if I managed to build the library, and I can't give you exact instructions. However, I do remember that the compiler will be unable to build this TV as long as it defines the __BORLANDC__ macro.

Given that you say that you are really new to C++, I will skip the technical details. I can only suggest you to use a development enviroment which integrates easily with CMake. I know that Microsoft's Visual Studio supports this; in this issue's comments you can find an example of how to create a Turbo Vision application with CMake which you can then load into Visual Studio.

Great to hear from you. The reason I was trying to get it to compile with Embarcadero v11 is I understand if I can get this compiled into a library, that Delphi 11.x can access it and use it within Delphi. I have the ability to compile my pascal packages written with Firemonkey for Windows/MAC/Linux server. I have been in talks with Embarcadero to get the complete source to the pascal version but since yours was already written and I am told can be called from within Delphi 11 as well. Thought it would be pretty sweet to give a try. Embarcadero may not have all the source anyway so would be a large project. I have a 986 app that uses TVision that I thought would be cool if I could get it updated. Will keep playing along with it.
