Welcome to a series of tips and tricks for taking advantage of the new Windows 64-bit Modern toolchain in C++Builder / RAD Studio 12.2! This builds on a webinar we did sharing a bunch of useful information on why and how the new C++Builder matters to you, where this was the very end (so go watch the start!)
Tip #2: Handling Old RTL
The new Windows 64-bit Modern C++ toolchain is standards-compliant…

When you install 12.2, and use the Windows 64-bit Modern C++ platform, it is on by…
We’ve released the new Windows 64-bit Modern C++ toolchain over time: a preview in C++Builder 12.0 through to fully complete in 12.2 (dynamic package linking, CMake support, parallel building by default, etc.) In 12.2, it is a full replacement for the old Win64…
Back in October when we released C++Builder and RAD Studio 12.2, we introduced that we have fantastic CMake support.
We have both multiple demos and a lot of documentation on using CMake. This blog is to briefly point you to both.

RAD Studio 12.2 brings several great improvements to C++. One of these is the completion of the new Windows 64-bit Modern toolchain with the addition of both using and creating dynamic packages (BPL files.)
Dynamic Package Consumption
When we released the new toolchain in…
We recently identified a potential buffer overflow in the C/C++ runtime library (RTL). Although this is an issue that was introduced to the code in 1997 with no exploitation since its introduction, we are publishing a notification and a fix for safety and openness, out of an…
RAD Studio 12.1 launched a few weeks ago, and while it was mostly quality-focused it added some key new features. The most major is an IDE productivity enhancement, one we’ve wanted to add for some time and which can be extremely useful… split editor views.
