Hello
I'm trying to convert delphi project to lazarus and it failed because
it don't find RES file where rc file

Error: Can't open resource file
"/packages/Lazarus/../../res/styles.RES"

I rename the rc file to RES file but it complain that it in wrong
format.

How should I convert them?

I found a file build-res.bat with content:
Quotebrcc32 res\version.rc
cgrc res\icon.rc
brcc32 res\icon-question.rc
brcc32 res\manifest.rc
brcc32 -fores\updater.res res\updater32.rc
cgrc.exe res\styles.rc
What is the equivalent of Lazarus?

My project is:

Done that, I cahange to rc in the dpr file:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i {.$R
*.RES}{$R ..\..\res\icon.rc}{$R ..\..\res\icon-question.rc}{$R
..\..\res\version.rc}{$R ..\..\res\manifest.rc}{$R
..\..\res\updater.rc}{$R ..\..\res\styles.rc}
And now I get very informative error message:

QuoteCompile Project, Target: lib/x86_64-linux/heidisql: Exit code
256, Errors: 1
Error: Error while compiling resources -> Compile with -vd for more
details. Check for duplicates.

I set the -vd via "Project Options" -> Compiler Options -> Verbosity
-> Show debug info (-vd)

and I still get the same error.

When I press on"Test" in the project options, it give the following
warning:
QuoteHINT: using config file /etc/fpc.cfg

I use the svn version of Lazarus if it related.
