C++ Builder IDE >> project default directories

by johnp » Fri, 26 Aug 2005 15:29:19 GMT

On booting BCB6 and bugging file/open project how do I
get it to default to a specified directory (OS is XP)
so I don't have to browse to my source dir. ?

The default on installation
was \bin. Fiddling with the
order of include & library paths in
project/options/directory conditionals
doesn't - as expected - help.

C++ Builder IDE >> project default directories

johnp,

Right-click the shortcut you use to start C++Builder and change its "Start
In" field to the desired directory.

3. CLX App - default project options (Directories) don't remain 

Hi,

I've just installed Indy 9 to work with my BCB6 Pro ( w/ Update 4).

To install it properly, I have to set an "Include" directory for the 
Indy stuff.  I successfully do this for my normal VCL apps, checking the 
"Default" checkbox so that the include dir is set for all new projects. 
  However, when I try to do this for CLX applications - including the 
"Include" directory for the CLX application, it doesn't seem to apply 
the change to new CLX applications/projects.

I've had a look at the "default.clx" file in the "bin" directory for 
BCB6 and the required include dir seems to be there in the appropriate 
place.

However, it seems to ignore this default file and just have the standard 
"$(BCB)\include;$(BCB)\include\vcl" only.

Is this a known bug?  Would anyone be able to suggest how I can work 
around this please?  Thanks very much for any help/suggestions.

Prem.

5. How to change default project directory (user.home) 

When you create a new project, JBuilder chooses a default location of
the project.

I want to change this default - so I don't have to manually edit the
dialog box.

I believe this directory is taken from the user.home variable ( you
can see this in the "About Jbuilder" help box within the info tab.

Have looked thru the help section and the Tools and don't see how to
change it.

7. How to set the database path to directory other than the project directory 

Hi,

How can I set the database path at runtime or design time to point to
the database, which is in a location other than the project directory?
I created a database which is in a sub-directory of the project
directory and BCB3 raises an exception when attempting an SQL INSERT as
it cannot find the directory:

"Project mdiapp.exe raised exception class EDBEngineError with message
'Table does not exist.
File or directory does not exist.
File: D:\MKInventorySystem\tblInvoiceHistory.DB
File: D:\MKInventorySystem\tblInvoiceHistory.DBF
File: D:\MKInventorySystem\tblInvoiceHistory.txt
File: D:\MKInventorySystem\tblInvoiceHistory'. Process stopped. Use
Step or Run to continue."

The database is actually in the following directory:

D:\MKInventorySystem\Db
