My application (SDI tabbed view, 64-bit statically compiled) doesn't anymore start after compiling against TP 18.6?
I have no problems when I use earlier version 18.5. My app hasn't changed for a long time.

I reported a problem to CodeJock after v18.6 was released. When using static linking, some application resources are not loading correctly, which is what I suspect is happening here.

Was told that they're looking into the problem, but not sure on the status of that investigation.

My solution for the time being was to merge important v18.6 fixes into the v18.5 code base.

As a temporary workaround you can remove or comment the following below piece of code in Source\Common\res\Resource-Neutral.rc and re-build ToolkitPro:

#ifndef _AFXDLL

#include <afxctl.rc>
#include <afxdb.rc>
#include <afxolecl.rc>
#include <afxolesv.rc>
#include <afxprint.rc>
#include <afxres.rc>

#include "Common/res/mfc/indicate.rc"
#include "Common/res/mfc/prompts.rc"

#endif //_AFXDLL

Please confirm it fixes the problem.

Regards,
  Alexander

Generally works, but not when _XTP_RESOURCE_LANGUAGE is defined. Then you have to uncomment the same lines in the corresponding Resource_xx.rc file too.

Is this related to the errors:

v:\xcomponents\XTToolkit\v1860\Source\Calendar/res/Resource-Neutral.rc(35): error RC2135: file not found: Calendar/res/EventGlyps_100.bmp

v:\xcomponents\XTToolkit\v1860\Source\Controls/res/Resource-Neutral.rc(70): error RC2135: file not found: Controls/res/Arrow.ico

v:\xcomponents\XTToolkit\v1860\Source\DockingPane/res/Resource-Neutral.rc(41): error RC2135: file not found: DockingPane/res/DockingStickers_VisualStudio_2005_125.png

and so on, when compiling with static resources?

OK but it is maybe because you never hit the language neutral resources?

But it is clear that the bitmaps referred to in the files does not exist on the disk?

With the changes above there is no difference when compiling with static or dynamic resources, both are fine. And the files you are missing are on disk.
