Version 5.1 with Delphi 2006?

[nsutclif]

We're thinking of upgrading Delphi 7 to 2006, so I'm looking for compatibility issues with our other development tools.

I noticed that the version 6 release notes lists BDC 2006 compatibility. Does version 6 add new features for BDC 2006, or is version 5.1 incompatible in some way with Delphi 2006?

If we do need to upgrade, how much work will it be to upgrade our 5.1 script to 6.0? (The last time I upgraded was from 3.5 to 5.1.)

Some changes were implemented in v6 to support BDS 2006. A few bug fixes were also incorporated. v5.x might work for some projects but is not supported. See http://visualbuild.com/Manual/?visualbuild5_x.htm for issues to be aware when upgrading from v5.x.
