Embarcadero RAD Studio 12.2 Athens Inline Patch 1

Embarcadero has released RAD Studio, Delphi, and C++Builder 12.2 Athens Inline Patch 1. This update provides quality improvements to the 12.2 release, focused on RAD Studio IDE, FireMonkey, the bcc64x Win64 Modern toolchain, RAD Server, and the 64-bit versions of the Delphi compiler.

The patch also fixes a package binary compatibility issue that prevents using packages built in RAD Studio 12.2 in RAD Studio 12.1 and 12.0, mostly affecting third-party component vendors. While only a few source files needed changes to address this binary compatibility issue, it affects almost all DCU file signatures and runtime packages for all of our target platforms. Delivering this as a hotfix would have resulted in a large download (~ 1GB) and many files to install. Using the product installer, which is intended for this purpose, offers a much better alternative than using our simple patch tool.

For this reason, we are delivering this patch as a new inline installer, delivering a brand new internal build of the product, with build number 29.0.53982.0329 (the original 12.2 release was build number 29.0.53571.9782), as you can see below.

Behind the Build: RAD Studio and C++Builder 12.0 - David Millington


C++Builder 12 brings some massive improvements. We'd like to give you a look behind the scenes and a preview of what's coming. Expect to see in-development tech, an exciting, unfiltered, behind-the-scenes look at what's coming soon in two major areas: the new Clang toolchain, with massive improvements across the RTL, STL, linker, debugger, and more; and the Visual Assist integration, providing navigation, search, and refactoring for C++.
