Compiling BCI2000 with C++ Borland v. 11

Good morning!

According to the information provided by the website "BCI2000Wiki", in order to compile the BCI2000 ADC file, we need to run the file "BCI2000.bpg". We tried to do so, but, unfortunately, it didn't work and the following message was displayed:

"PROJECTS macro in project group file missing or incorrect".

We have downloaded all the files contained in the folder named SRC.

We are working with the program "C++ Borland v. 11".

Best regards,

Eliana Garcia

Eli,

you will need Borland C++ Builder Version 6, released in 2002, or Version 2007, released in 2007. Version 2006 might work as well but we don't recommend using it.

An overview of Borland C++ Builder versions can be found here:

Juergen,

Thank you very much for your information. I already installed the Borland C++ Builder Enterprise Suite Version 6.0 (Build 10.155) 1983-2002, but still I am having the same problems. Once I installed the software, I downloaded each of the icons from the folder src. Then, I try to open the BCI2000 project but I have an error message coming that says: ''PROJECTS macro in project group file missing or incorrect''.

I am downloading every single thing from the folder trunk and then src. I would like to know if I have to install BCI2000 before I try to open these files on C++ BUILDER or if there is any problem with windows Vista.

Please give me more details about these issues, I worked before with these information but never got these problems.

I appreciate your help,

Regards,
Eli

Eli,

it appears that you are downloading source files using a web browser rather than using an SVN client software.
Web browsers may corrupt files during the download (e.g., by converting line endings, or character sets), so this is not the recommended method of downloading the BCI2000 source code.

I recommend that you use an SVN client as described on
http://www.bci2000.org/wiki/index.php/P ... ource_Code.

More information about installing and using TortoiseSVN as an SVN client can be found in the howto pages:
http://www.bci2000.org/wiki/index.php/P ... ient_Setup
and
