SC Team - Trying to use Borland Compiler for compiling few studies one of the SC header files is failing with the following message.

[bcc64 Error] SCString.h(816): use of undeclared identifier '_vscprintf'

There seems to be a workaround to use a different function for this.

I am able to compile using other compilers but not bcc64.

Usually if this was a warning - I can skip the warnings but it's actually erroring during the compile time. Other than header update there seems to be no workaround for this.

This is NOT a show stopper for me (as I can use other compilers to compile to code) - still would be be nice if this can be fixed as I would like to use C++ Builder as a tool which only supports Borland C++ :(

thanks
