How do I create a non-wrapper project?

[tcollins]

Yup. I'm doing DirectX programming, and don't really need/want any of these forms/units and such that Builder 'helps' me with. I need to open a BLANK project. I need to manage my own WinMain and WinProc functions. Any one know? Thanks

Easiest way is to use your favorite editor and create you own CPP file. Then you could use the command line to compile it via "BCC32".

True, but I like the menu popup's for my enumerations, classes and functions. And if load up my favorite notepad I loose these. I want to use the IDE, but I don't need it to automagically supply me with all its wrappers and such...for now... I SHOULD have the option...right?

Then you will need to go into your project options and tell the compiler what options to include or exclude. You may need to exclude precompiled, exclude some Directories or Libraries tab, or exclude some packages. I've never had a reason to do this from BCB so I can't give you explicit examples. If nobody can help you here, experiment. Just remember what you had included in the default in case you want to change it back later.

I DID IT!

To create a BLANK windows app (no wrappers) you need to use Console Wizard to create a Console application for you. When it asks if you wish to create a Console application, de-click that option, then it will just start you off with a blank WinMain() and you're all set

I know I know....but it works
