I just reloaded delphi7 on my reformatted hard drive and am now experiencing
some compiler errors such as, [Error] Unit1.pas(638): Undeclared identifier:
'SaveToFile', even though "classes" is in my uses list.
When I compile previous source code that uses the same function, everything
works fine.
Any suggetsions?
Thanks

Your questions resolved my problem.
I was trying to use a method of TStrings class like a function by itself
without an object.
Thanks for getting back to me.

"WorkBook.java": Error #: 482 : duplicate definition of class com.merck.ushh.icomm.ssl.prod.officedocumentautomation.excel.Workbook, defined in M:\Steiandr_view\USHH_icommpro_content\productsites\java\src\com\merck\ushh\icomm\ssl\prod\officedocumentautomation\excel\WorkBook.java and also defined in M:\Steiandr_view\USHH_icommpro_content\productsites\java\src\com\merck\ushh\icomm\ssl\prod\officedocumentautomation\excel\Workbook.java
It is pointing to the same file which only has one class declaration in it. I did rename the file at one point; there is still only one file defining the class. Any ideas how to fix this?

Attached is a simple linear programming program using pascal code from the
Numerical Recipes library. When compiling under Delphi Professional Version
5.0, I get an error which I am told to report to the Inprise Developers.
Unfortunately, I can't find an email address to report it. If you have
any advise regarding the problem or getting help, I'd appreciate it.

Hello,
I did the next programm :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class A {
public:
virtual void f() { cout << "Méthode A"<< endl; }
};
class B : public A
{
public:
static void f() { cout << "Méthode B"<< endl; }
};
class C : public B
{
public:
void f() { cout << "Méthode C"<< endl; }
};
int main(int, char**)
{
A* x;
A a;
B b;
C c;
a.f();
b.f();
c.f();
x = &a; x->f();
x = &b; x->f();
x = &c; x->f();
}
Compilation :
Borland C++ 5.5.1 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2000 Borland
test.cpp:
Warning W8022 test.cpp 15: 'B::f()' hides virtual function 'A::f()'
Turbo Incremental Link 5.00 Copyright (c) 1997, 2000 Borland
Result :
C:\test>test
MÚthode A
MÚthode B
MÚthode C
MÚthode A
MÚthode A
MÚthode A
(copy paste from my console).
Unfortunately, compilers have to reject this overriden of virtual function :
"Interesting example. You are trying to override a virtual with a static.
That's
not allowed and the compilers should reject the program." (B. Stroustrup).

Hi
I'm getting this error:

Hi everybody
I'm getting the following error when using DBGrid and TExcel components in
the same Form.
[C++ Error] ComCtrls.hpp(2638): E2015 Ambiguity between 'Windows' and
'Excel_2k::Windows'
Is there a way to avoid this?

Hello All,
I've tried to debug the code below, but can not figure out what is
causing the errors. I appreciate if anyone of you could give me a hand
on that. Follows the code and the error messages.

*** 3 errors in Compile ***

Is it me or does this compiler like ALWAYS find 26 errors....regardless of the number of *actual* errors in source code. It spots the first error and then generates lots of other errors elsewhere in the code while trying to parse.
e.g.
for (int i=0; i<10; i2++) // error 1, i2 undefined
{
std::g_string str = "IDE sucks"; // err #2 g_string not defined
}
// error #3 missing ";"
std::cout << "there's like problems everywhere " << endl
Now borland, in all its wisdom reports 26 errors before I fix anything.... there are precisely 3. Then I fix error #1 and recompile. Hey presto... 26 errors. I fix error 2.... boom 26 errors again.
this compiler is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO brainy and smart that it tells me I have 26 compiler errors regardless of how many there actually are.
This problem is just not present with all other compilers I have used.
Not much longer in any case, this app is going to c# soon and while I will miss C++ I will NOT miss the IDE!

Firstly the nature of C++ compilers is that they will continue to run
long after an error has been found. it is just one of those things they
do. There might even be a good reason for it. Most of the time they
just get thoroughly confused but BCB does seem to be the champion of
total confusion.
Secondly IIRC BCB stops after 26 errors by default.
Whatever. Most of the time the best way to look at the compiler error
output is to read the first error message and ignore the rest.
Sometimes the second message might help give a clue but anything after
that is usually best ignored.

How would I proceed in fixing this error?
[C++ Error] DownloadThread.cpp(46): E2285 Could not find a match for

The code is only:
