With the IDE Fix Pack 5.5 release the end of 2010, XE2, XE3 and XE4 support is reached. This will be the last IDE Fix Pack for those four versions.
This version fixes a long standing bug that was introduced with version 4.6 (2011-12-15) and that affected the debugger when it searched for the correct debug info for a unit in a package. Without the debug info, the debugger didn’t stop at breakpoints in the unit and the editor didn’t show the “blue dots”.
For C++Builder this version applies a patch on the 64bit CLANG IDE compiler that reduces the memory consumption, the CPU load and the resulting file size of debug builds with deeply nested templates.
The 32bit fastdcc.exe command line compiler loader is now named fastdcc32.exe.
