So, you want to report errors in a printf / sprintf way? Check this out…

[cpp]

#include
//—–blah blah

void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
AnsiString filename=”c:\\mytestfile.txt”;

if (!FileExists(filename))
ShowError(“Cannot open file %s”,filename.c_str());
}

void __cdecl TForm1::ShowError(const char *format, …)
{
va_list args;

va_start(args,format);

AnsiString Buf=”";
Buf.vprintf(format,args);
va_end(args);

Application->MessageBoxA(Buf.c_str(),”ERROR”,MB_OK | MB_ICONERROR);
}
[/cpp]

ps: don’t forget to declare void __cdecl TForm1::ShowError(const char *format, …) in your TForm class
