We like EL. Great app!
The problem we have is that our production build happens on a build PC under FinalBuilder v3 (also a great app!).
FinalBuilder knows exactly how to wrap dcc32 and is very nice to use.
Everyone here was happy with EL until we got down to details about how to put it into our build process.
Ideally, we would:
a) Compile the EXE as we do now (perhaps also with MAP file)
b) Run an EL cmd line utility to patch up the EXE with data from the MAP file
c) Run our standard EXE compressor
Done!
Using ECC32 is a big step backwards for us, and is blocking implementation. The reasons are:
1) We lose the native FinalBuilder hooks to the delphi compiler (which are really nice)
2) We have to maintain a make file in addition to the dpr
If we can get over these issues, we will become a customer.
Please advise!
Thank you!
