Cannot recompile AnyDAC for Delphi sources ?

Posted by Support [Mar 05, 2010]

From time to time we are getting reports about "cannot recompile AnyDAC for Delphi sources using compileDxxx.bat". All talks with the customers does not help. Finally, the reason is found !

So, the story ... The customer installed SynEdit and was going to recompile AnyDAC for Delphi sources to integrate it with the SynEdit. Then AnyDAC will use SynEdit as an editor for SQL commands with the syntax highlighting support and more.

All looked fine. But compileD2010.bat produced the following output:

Is not strange ? I have reproduced his environment, commented the @echo off and what I see is (I split original command line into few lines for more simple reading):

c:\Program Files\RemObjects Software\AnyDAC for Delphi>dcc32.exe 
-JL -B -E.\Dcu\D14 -N.\Dcu\D14 -LE.\Dcu\D14 -LN.\Dcu\D14 -NB.\Dcu\D14 -NO.\Dcu\D14 
-U.\Dcu\D14;Source;"c:\ProgramData\Embarcadero\Components\SynEdit\Source\";

All looks correct, but the problem is simple. Delphi compiler does not support separated quoted paths in parameters, like a -U. Instead, the full parameter must be quoted:

"-U.\Dcu\D14;Source;c:\ProgramData\Embarcadero\Components\SynEdit\Source\;
C:\Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\7.0\Dcp;C:\Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\7.0\Dcp"

The changes will be a part of AnyDAC for Delphi May release.
