Need Help with FSUIPC SDK

[piscinas]

Hello Togheter!

I am a newby here in this forum, and also in programming (still my English).

Maybe someone can help me.

I'm using FS 2004 with FSUIPC 3.8.

I am trying to write a Programm in C++ to get longitude and lattitude in Read Mode

for my Airplane-model.

My Problem now is that I can't create a Programm with Borland C++ Builder 6.0 when I linked the FSUIPC_USER.LIB.

I get the message:

[Linker Fehler] 'C:\BORLAND\CBUILDER6\LIB\FSUIPC_USER.LIB' contains invalid OMF record, type 0x21 (possibly COFF)

I tryed the UIPChello.exe wich works fine.

Can you help me?

Thanks piscinas

Did you make your own version of that Microsoft-compiled LIB to suit your Borland compiler? I don't think LIB files are freely exchangeable between different makers' development systems. You'd need to use the source of the library, which is included in the SDK.

Alternatively, did you look at the BCB5 stuff in the SDK? Maybe BCB6 isn't too incompatible with BCB5 and the stuff in that part of the SDK will work for you?
