Project Upgrading
Go Up to Tour of the IDE
Tools > Options > IDE > Project Upgrading
Sets options that control the actions taken by RAD Studio when you open any legacy project, such as a project that does not have a project file (.dproj or .cbproj). You have three choices (convert and rename, convert and backup, or convert with no backup).
Item | Description |
---|---|
Convert and rename new project |
Converts your project to a new project and renames it by adding a release-specific suffix. For example, for the XE2 release, this option renames a project as follows: This is the Default. |
Convert and create a backup of the old project |
Converts your project and retains a backup copy of the original project. |
Suffix for backup project name |
Enter a suffix that you want to be appended to the project name (before the file extension). For example, if your project is named MyProject and you specify a suffix of 2011, the backup project name is MyProject2011.dproj or MyProject2011.cbproj.. |
Convert in place (no backup) |
Converts the project and overwrites the existing files when you save your project. No backup of the project is kept. |
Apply settings without prompting |
When this box is checked, the IDE does not prompt you before converting your project. Default = Unchecked. |
