Re: Linking with objects created from c code

I'm trying link in an object file generated from c code into a
delphi application using Delphi 2007 with the following directive:

{$L c_unit.obj}

I get the following error: E2045 Bad object file format: 'C:\opi\c
\c_unit.obj'

c_unit.obj generated by command: cl -c c_unit.c
cl is from microsoft visual c/c++ (version 6).

Object files can come in different formats. Most probably Delphi doesn't support any but the format of its own C++ personality. AFAIK the VC object format never has been supported.

I've heard a rumor, that RAD Studio supports "msbuild", whatever this may be (I'm still using D7). Have a look at your Delphi docs, that tool or feature may do what you want.
