Topic: Compile problem with Embarcadero RAD Studio XE

I recently found this great software, Graph, and very impressed.
I would like to appreciate for the author and contributers.

For the development, I am now trying to compile from the source ( - Version 4.4.2) by myself with Embarcadero RAD Studio XE.
The building was successfully done, however, I faced an error message saying "Host Application is needed to execute the program".
I assumed that an executable file will be generated, not DLL or packages. Therefore, I am now confused.

What "Host Application" should I define?
I am sorry for lacking of basic knowledge about C++, Delphi, or Windows-programing.

Thank you.

The compiling environment is as below:
・Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
・Embarcadero RAD Studio XE（with C++ Builder）

Re: Compile problem with Embarcadero RAD Studio XE

You probably compiled IComp.bpl, which you can see is selected in the Project Manager. You also need to compile Func32.lib and gsl.lib before you can compile Graph.exe.

Re: Compile problem with Embarcadero RAD Studio XE

Thank you very much for your reply!
As you said, I faced the error when I compiled IComp.bpl.

When I previously tried to compile them, the compiler terminated with too much error messages (I forgot the detail...).
Anyway, I will try to elimnate them on this Sunday.

Thank you!
