Various Compile Issues with TeeChart VCL 2024.40

[Mark Mayes]

I am running into issues with TeeChart VCL 2024.40 Pro with Source Code. First, when compiling a basic project in the IDE consisting of a TForm and a chart, I get the following message:

F2051 Unit VCLTee.Chart was compiled with a different version of System.RTLVersion121

So I tried to use TeeRecompile to fix the issue. However, TeeRecompile received an internal error. Here is the log:

The result was the the design package was removed from the IDE. I’ve reinstalled the package.

Here are my particulars.
I’m using RAD Studio 12 patch 1. (Enterprise Edition, Version 29.0.50491.5718)
I’m using Windows 11 Pro
TeeRecompile.exe is from April 1, 2024, 7:55 A.M.

Thanks

Hello,

F2051 Unit VCLTee.Chart was compiled with a different version of System.RTLVersion121

I haven't heard about this one.
It sounds as if the VCLTee.Chart.dcu unit found in the library path was build before installing some update or patch in the IDE.
I'd try to rebuild the sources, as you did.

I find the F2084 error may be due to a memory consumption limit (here).
Make sure you don't have big programs open and try to run TeeRecompile again to see if it makes any difference?
BTW, how many memory has your machine?

[Mark Mayes]

I have 32GB of memory, of which 41% is free. I was running several Microsoft programs (e.g., Teams, Edge), so I shut them down. I received the exact same error at the same place. Also, task manager showed that memory usage did not change significantly while TeeRecompile was running. And I was running as administrator.

[Mark Mayes]

Sorry, that was 41% used, not free.

Hello,

I've just double checked it and it seems the IDE version I use here (29.0.51961.7529) is different from yours (29.0.50491.5718).
I'm not sure it will make any difference, but maybe there's an update you can apply.

[Mark Mayes]

I'll see if I can get an answer from Embarcadero. I've actually asked 3 times about an update, but haven't heard anything back. I've been waiting since late June. It's really strange behavior from them. They offered a demo. I explained that I've been using Delphi since version 2 and don't need a demo. I just need to know any upgrade path available.

[Mark Mayes]

It works fine with Delphi 12.1. The only problem I have now is that is shows Trial version. There is no way to enter the registration information because the installer picks up on the fact that it's registered.

[Yeray]

Hello,

The only problem I have now is that is shows Trial version.

Do you mean the about box says "unregistered"?
The installer attempts to write the license information to the registry only to display this information in the about box.
This seems to fail in some circumstances, but it doesn't affect anything else.

Or the about box is automatically opened every time a chart is created?
In that case, I'd suggest you to fully uninstall TeeChart and reinstall it again.
