The curse of Dennis D. Spreen

This problem also happens with new projects created with XE5.2, and never touched with other Delphi versions.
From time to time I’m seeing it in small helper project, that was created in XE5.2 – however I’m not able to find out steps to reproduce and QC it.
Mostly I’m seeing it when I do build be MSBuild.
Currently I’ve set this Warning as an Error, so when it shows in IDE it will be easier to know what I have done before, that triggered that error.
I think that it’s because of buggy project configuration inheritance (like VersionInfo is totally broken…)

This sounds very similar to the msbuild issue I blogged about a while ago “When the Delphi XE5 commandline compiler fails with error F1026: File not found: ‘False.dpr’“:

Next time I see that I will try your solution. I hope it works as it is a lot easier than my solution.

Thanks a lot for your post!

It acutally is the same error – it outputs “false” as the command line argument for Debug Informations which isn’t recognized by the compiler. If not yet done, I’ll QC it.

Thnaks, work for me porting from Delphi-2006 to Delphi-XE5

Fix works perfect when porting an application from Delphi XE2 to Delphi 10.

Thanks Dennis!
