How to get rid of this annoying W8123 warning in my IDE

Question

This is what happened. We downloaded Quickreports 505, installed it, but had to revert to QR504. Now we are getting

     [BCC32 Warning] W8123 Path 'C:\Program Files\Embarcadero\RAD Studio\8.0\Quickrep505C' not found - path ignored in option '-I'

This question has been asked on both Embarcadero, and quick report forums but all of their answers has been modify the cbproj file, which do not contain any references to quickreports.

I've tried removing all the references from the IDE but the warning still occurs. Any suggestions on how to fix what should be a simple problem.

Using: IDE: C++BuilderXE

Note I do not want to disable all warnings in the IDE, and I don't want to disable warnings in Code.

Answer 1

I've had the same annoying problem. To fix this I had to delete all reference to the file in the EnvOptions.proj file. This file is located in the ...AppData\Roaming\Embarcadero\BDS\8.0\ folder.

I use XE2 and your workaround has fixed my problem. Thank you! – Leverage

Unbelievable. Thank you. This worked like a charm. – Deadfall

Answer 2

I got rid of this in my XE7 IDE directly via:

Tools > Options > Environment Options > C++ Options > Path and Directories.

There were invalid paths to libraries being referenced and showing up as warnings in the build. Select each of the ... icons to explore the list of paths included, and select Delete Invalid Paths to remove unused paths.

Glad they finally fixed it. But that did not work for me in XE1. – Deadfall

Is there an interface to manage the paths in XE1? That way you would not have to manually edit the EnvOptions.proj. – Manuelmanuela

Answer 3

To enhance and update prior answers, this is what I had to do...

From the menus: [Tools] [Options]

In the Dialog box: [Environment Options] [C++ Options] [Paths and Directories]

Now at the top on the right side in the drop down pick: [32-bit Windows] (it started as Android)

The clear invalid paths in both tabs [Compiler] & [Classic Compiler]
