GoogleMock Compilation issues with C++ Builder

Question

I'm having some issues trying to compile (and use) the googleMock library. It compiles perfectly with gcc and MS Visual Studio but I haven't been able to compile it with Rad Studio C++ Builder XE3.

When I try to compile I get these errors:

The sources I'm trying to compile can be found here, the project is inside the src folder.

Answer 1

Problem solved. It seems that the 32bit compiler has some issues, It was necessary to compile the library with the 64bit compiler.
