I think this is a very bad security hazard.

Search for LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a more UNIX way to solve your problem.

I think so. Zeos uses the same mechanism to workaround mysql versioning. You need to define a small driver class for a new version (16 is Mysql 5.1, 15 is mysql 5.0). See the source of ZPlainMySqlDriver how to it. These drivers must be somehow get connected to the connection, probably via similar cl...

Start by explaining what you exact downloaded?

Did you check out svn://zeos.firmos.at/zeos/branches/testing ?

Labels are just labels. No, i definitely dont agree with that. Alpha is by definition a no-go for production releases, a beta is signaling its ready but could contain minor errors.. True, but since in most smaller projects such transitions are made without a statistically valid way of proofing if s...

Would it be safe to use in my commercial app yet? It is still alpha...

Would me naming it zeta make it more safer? Labels are just labels.

Anyway I use it in apps, but the amount of transactions are not that high (several hundreds)

Move the .bpl's (and those only) to somewhere in the PATH.

Recent Delphi's add some directory to the PATH specifically for this purpose.

For my Delphi XE it is

C:\Users\Public\Documents\RAD Studio\8.0\Bpl

Ok, added "C:\PROGRA~1\Borland\Delphi5\Comp\D2010\ZEOSDBO\packages\delphi14\build" to the OS PATH Variable (really strange !!) compiled and installed ZComponentDesign140.bpl but still no components on my pallette or Forms. Should work. Note that recent delphi versions already put a dir fo...

It doesn't have to be a bigbang change. You can do it gradually as you find out things.

Btw, I saw you committed it in testing. Trunk appears static

Is this normal?

That's because captions are UTF8 in Lazarus. But they are UTF16 in Delphi/Unicode (Delphi2009+) Caption is of type String in Delphi/unicode, which is of type TUnicodeString, not Ansistring. The first is <utf16string>:=<utf16string> so no conversion takes place. So by typecasting a UTF16 string to an...

No. I just know what Kylix defines and what not from the old days. I never used Kylix (I ran FPC on Linux and FreeBSD before Kylix)

That's why I added the "unix" define, to separate general unixisms (like / and \) from Linuxisms.

I posted a patch for Delphi XE project files in the patches forum. With that it builds fine. My (admitted, fairly simple) Zeos using app works with it too.

It is fairly trivial though. Most work is fixing all the libsuffixes (in dproj and .dpk)

Attached is an archive containing - A patch fixing the D2009 package dir (the zeosdbodev project) - The Delphi15 dir for Delphi XE packages. Copied and adapted from the D2010 - A patch for (most) inc files - remove {$ifdef freebsd} {$define unix}{$endif} this is already defined in FPC. The correspon...

I can be wrong, but I haven't seen package files for 2010 ? (Delphi 13), only 2009 and XE ?

You do too much, what you do wrong is that tdbedit.text already is unicodestring (UTF16, like widestring). The utf8 conversion is not necessary. The codepage=utf8 cshould already let Zeos do this translation (utf8 on the "wire" to utf16 in dbedit.text). The only thing to check is that all ...
