Just to let you know, after vigorously comparing lots and lots of paths and settings, I found a path in 10.3 that was pointing to the 10.1 install, which I guess had higher priority than the correct paths. Fixing that resolved the issue. So you definitely pointed me in the right direction. Thank you.
And in the off chance it’s useful to anyone else, the “Carbon Black” antiviral software causes a spectacular crash with the 32-bit debugger in 10.3 if bds.exe is not whitelisted. No relation to Konopka, but tracking that down — it’s very quiet about it, I dug it out of the Windows Event Viewer — took me a while, hence my delay in acknowledging your assistance.
Thank you for the prompt reply.
I just got back into work and will try what you suggested, and let you know one way or the other.
By “drop them on the form”, I meant, I tried w/two existing projects, one which had Konopka controls, one which did not. I wanted to see if the controls in the palette would let me set their properties in the design view (yes), and if they added the units to the USES clause (also yes).
I will test w/a new project to get an additional data point.
A problem w/older DCUs still on some path seems possible. Our projects have moved from Delphi 6 to 8 to 10.1 to 10.3 since I’ve worked here, and I believe began in Delphi 3 before I started. There’s a lot of old kruft that’s been copied forward. (A complete cleanup and fresh start is not an option, sadly, for some reasons that are good and some that aren’t so good, but that’s the way it is.)
