RaizeComponentsVcl.a Missing from 10.3.3 Rio Installation

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I am trying to build a 64Bit C++Builder application using Raize components on Rio 10.3.3, but when I compile, it complains the RaizeComponentsVcl.a is missing. This is after downloading and installing the Bonus Konopka VCL controls via GetIt. I have checked the folders and they are, indeed, missing.
The Win32 version for 10.3.3 Rio is fine (RaizeComponentsVcl.lib exists) and so is the 10.2 Tokyo Win64 version where RaizeComponentsVcl.a exists also.

Hi,

Thank you for reporting this. There is definitely an issue with the new KSVC GetIt package that Embarcadero created for 10.3. You are correct, the RaizeComponentsVcl.a file is missing from the Lib\RX10.3\Win64 directory.

I would strongly recommend that you report this to Embarcadero so that they can fix it for the next release (or in an update).

In the meantime, you can rebuild the component packages (including the RaizeComponentsVcl.a file) using the !Build_RC6.cmd file located in the Source subdirectory. Unfortunately, the version of the !Build_RC6.cmd file that was included in the latest version of KSVC is not up to date. You can download an updated version from the following link. https://raize.com/wp-content/uploads/Build_RC6.zip

After downloading, unzip the contents and replace the !Build_RC6.cmd file in the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\20.0\CatalogRepository\KonopkaControls-260-6.2.3\Source directory with this new version. You will need to edit the command file to make sure that the path to the 10.3 compiler is correct for your machine. The command file will only display a message until you edit the file and uncomment a particular line to allow the build process to continue.

Once you follow the instructions for editing the file, open a Command Prompt (we recommend opening it As an Administrator). Then you MUST navigate to the C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\20.0\CatalogRepository\KonopkaControls-260-6.2.3\Source directory, and then you can execute the !Build_RC6.cmd file. This will rebuild the components and packages and when it is complete, you will find the RaizeComponentsVcl.a file located in the Lib\RX10.3\Win64 directory.

Thanks Ray, that worked a treat!
I will add a QC report to Embarcadero as you suggested.
