On a side, how fast are your compiles now ?
OK here are some figures:-
FULL BUILD
==========
BCB6 : Approx 15 mins
BCB6 with bcc32pch : 4min 28secs
BCB6 with bcc32pch & mtbcc32 : 2min 28secs
CHANGE 1 FILE AND MAKE
======================
BCB6 : Approx 2+ mins
BCB6 with bcc32pch : 30secs
BCB6 with bcc32pch & mtbcc32 : 6secs
I'd like to see some information going back to the compiling dialog box,
that would make it fantastic!!!!
I'm evaluating this solution for our company so if I can get a working
solution for our developers I can get some donations to you and Andreas!!!
Keep up the good work.

Wait. You are using mtbcc32 which ignores the -compilerprogram. So
there is nothing bcc32pch could use for the progress dialog. And
there is also no advanced PCH support as mtbcc32 doesn't support
this, if I'm right?
That mtbcc32ide still calls bcc32ide, and the output is from bcc32ide. So
there should be no difference.

OK, what should I use?
Currently i'm using:-
*) bcc32pch V2.55
*) I've renamed mtbcc32ide.exe to mtbcc32.exe
*) Put 'mtbcc32.exe -threads8 -equalize8' in the bcc32.exe replacement.
This so far the fastest but I get no feedback.
What does the -compilerprogram do and how should I use it?
Thanks

-compilerprogram was in mtbcc32 v.1.7.0 and it allowed whatever was calling
it to specify its own compiler, instead of bcc32.exe. However, I removed
that option in later versions.
bcc32pch tries to use that option to specify bcc32ide, but because I
removed it, I had to release mtbcc32ide that is preset to use bcc32ide.exe,
and ignore the -compilerprogram option.

Do you modifiy the Environment block (CreateProcess parameteter) ?
bcc32pch sets some special env-vars for bcc32ide.exe. For example the
pipe handle where to write all the status/progress information to.
No I don't think so.

Just tried your plugin.

WOW, it's fantastic. I guess I'm going to have to put my hand in my
pocket and make a donation, don't know if I'll find the time though,
I used to be able to walk the dog, make a cup of tea, read the paper
between BCB builds, not anymore though!
;)
I agree, this plugin is excellent. That's what Borland should have done
a long time ago!
