codeblocks borland free compiler single file error compile

[lazy_john]

hi
I'm trying to change from MinGW(all functions as expected, i can compile projects/single files with MinGW) to Borland(Embarcadero) 5.5 free compiler(it compiles faster); all is functional;
I think there may be a bug in C::B, i can't compile single files(files without project) with Borland compiler; i can compile single files with Borland from command line

Is there a way to make C::B compile Borland single files??(project compile works ok.. but i need single files)

my install: C::B 12.11 / MinGW TDM-GCC 4.7.1 / Embarcadero free compiler 5.5.1 incremental linker 5.00 / Winxp

It seems there's a linker error but i can't understand why it happens, all paths work ok with project compile; single file compile works ok from command line Borland and from MinGW by switching to MinGW profile

Put x:\borland\bcc55\lib\import32.lib and cw32.lib into the"Settings>Compiler>Linker settings>Link Library"
