Sample fix/ workaround
Which exact Embarcadero C++ Builder are you using, the older 12.0 isn't supported anymore by the recent releases, see https://github.com/DOCGroup/ACE_TAO/releases/tag/ACE%2BTAO-8_0_2.
Try RAD Studio 12.3 or try to downgrade to ACE/TAO 8.0.2 with RAD Studio 12.2, haven't tested with 12.2 for some time now
My support for the Embarcadero C++ compilers here on github is very limited, when you need guaranteed support see https://www.remedy.nl/opensource/emb
