I do everything according to the instructions, when I install acntCX11Alexandria.bpl, Linker32 comes up with an error: VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.OBJ cannot be opened.

Hello,
I would be happy if someone could help me. The same problem occurs with a new installation on a clean Windows 11 computer. Installing the older version on Sydney 10.4 works fine.

Not sure, if this case but there is a fix in patch 1…

RSP-35040 64bit packets in C++ containing Delphi code do not run

RAD Studio 11.1 Alexandria Patch 1 Available

[SS68]

Hello,
I just installed the patch. Unfortunately the error still exists. I compiled acntCX11Alexandria_R.cbproj with no errors. If I then install acntCX11Alexandria.cbproj the error comes up:
[ilink32 Error] Fatal: Cannot open file ‘VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.OBJ’.
However, the file VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.OBJ does not exist in the system either, only a VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.DCU, VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.PAS and VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.HPP

Have you build Delphi packages? There is “Delphi Compiler > Output – C/C++ > C/C++ Output file generation” -option. Is it set so that it will build C++ objects?

[SS68]

I compile the C project. The setting under the “Delphi Compiler / Output C/C++” is:
Generate all C++Builder files (including package libs)

I have same problem.
Really there is no way for solve this problem???

Hello,
unfortunately I still have the same problem. I can compile and when installing acntCX11Alexandria.bpl I get the linker32 error [ilink32 error] Fatal: File ‘VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.OBJ’ cannot be opened.
I installed all updates and patches. I have the same problem on another computer. Please solve, otherwise I will have to remove alphacontrol from all projects.

Hello and sorry for a long time without answer.
I think, this issue is linked with incorrect path’s in the IDE, but can’t check it, unfortunately.
You wrote that this Obj-file doesn’t exists in the system, but maybe it’s created after compiling of the acntCX11Alexandria_R.bpl project? (with enabled “Generate all C++Builder files” option). This file is not part of the AlphaControls library, RAD Studio should create it due compiling process, I think.

[SS68]

Hello,
that didn’t work at all. I then tried to create the *.obj files with another project by inserting the ImageList components and integrating the files Vcl.BaseImageCollection.hpp and Vcl.VirtualImageList.hpp with the option “Use for precompilation”. I then copied them into CX11Alexandria. After that I installed acntCX11Alexandria.cbproj. Unfortunately then comes rtl280 access violation.
I have no more ideas 🙁

Just add vclwinx library and you can build the design package (see attachment).

Thank you, indeed Building the package is possible then without the error “VCL.BASEIMAGECOLLECTION.OBJ cannot be opened”. But installing (and thats whats needed to do) is still not possible because of an error “Class TsCharImageList not found.” Any Ideas how to solve this?

Thanks!

I did install the package without any problems (see previous attachment, icon shows it is installed). I was beta testing upcoming Delphi 11.3 thou. I didn’t test this on Delphi 11.2. I haven’t changed any other settings in C++ project files.

Did you build the run-time package first?

I tried it again, no problem.

Yes i built the run-time package at first.
Then i’ll wait for C++ Builder 11.3 and then i try it again to install the component.

EDIT: To precise, i didn’t built the run-time package because Install.txt says “Make” not “Build”, but anyway, i tried to build it in addition but that not solve the issue during the installation of the design package.

Best Regards

As a Delphi user I am used to compiling and building packages. I see C++ Builder is calling it Make and Build. But I did only build it.
