borlndmm.dll/D2007

[Rich Rohde]

Hello all,

I'm having an issue with the version of borlndmm.dll. I've got a program
that was developed with D2006 and was working fine. I made one correction to
the application and recompiled successfully with D2007. When I place the
application on the client site, the application fails upon execution, that
is, no statement is executed. The client site has an older version of
borlndmm.dll.

I had another application this happened with and ran it on another computer
here with an older version of borlndmm.dll and it failed, but once I copied
the borlndmm.dll from D2007, the application worked perfectly.

Two questions:

1) What would be causing the error (e.g. file management, screen management,
etc)?
2) Can I copy the borlndmm.dll from D2007 to the client site and expect
older versions of Delphi applications to work properly?

Regards,
Rich

One additional note: The D2006 and D2007 versions of the software were
compiled on a Windows Vista system.

I've resolved the issue. One additional note, this is a standalone project.
I've found, with my DLL projects I don't have a problem.

Added SHAREMEM to units in the Program Source. I've added SHAREMEM to the
uses statement in the units, but I don't think it's necessary.

Is there an expert that can explain this?

Sorry, I mean USES in the Program Source, not UNITS

All of the above. The memory manager is continually being improved.

I doubt it. You can put the dll in your application directory so that
only your app will find it.
