Zeoslib Portal

Take a look at Lazarus (http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org). I think it might be more stable than Kylix. Using the SVN source, I've been able to use MySQL 5 using Delphi 7. I'm sure it would work fine with Lazarus too.

Why would you want to put the table name in quotes? I've read several MySQL books and even the MySQL docs and never seen a SQL Query like that. I vote using quotes for the tablename is improper syntax.

I use compression with MySQL 5. There are MySQL functions called COMPRESS() and UNCOMPRESS(). Basically you just make these calls in your SQL queries.

For example:
select UniqueID, uncompress(MyString) from MyTable;
or
select UniqueID, uncompress(MyString) as UncompressedMyString from MyTable;

Guys, I'm going to be working on the Lazarus port of Zeoslib. Who has patches that need to be added to the code base? Please post them in this thread for review.

Michael, why don't you turn the Lazarus port over to me and kfitzner? We will do our best to make it work.

Try installing ZeosLib into Lazarus. There are typos in the source it won't even compile without editing.

I think this is a dupe of my bug:

http://seegernet.koolhost.de/zeosforum/ ... .php?t=145

Where are the maintainers of this project???

Procedure for replicating this bug: 1. Create a MySQL 4.0 database: a. Open up MySQL command line tool b. Create database blobtest; c. Create table blobtable (myblob blob, myedit varchar(80) ); 2. Create a new application 3. Add TRichEdit and a TEdit 4. Add TButton 5. Add ZConnection and ZQuery. a. ...

Bump

How can I contact the developer who maintains the Zeoslib port? I'd like to volunteer to help improve it! Thanks.

Michael, Thanks for the reply. Can you please take a look at this problem? http://seegernet.koolhost.de/zeosforum/viewtopic.php?t=145 It looks like it would be very easy to fix. I don't know my way around the ZeosLib code so there is not much I can do. I would like to volunteer to help with the Laza...

I'm looking for a way to contact the developers. The CVS repository hasn't been updated in a few weeks. The developers don't seem to reply to this forum.

Is there an e-mail list group for the developers? This forum doesn't appear to be very helpful.

Is there anyone from the ZeosLib team who could help? This bug is a show stopper for me.

This problem is a real show stopper for me. Are there any members of the ZeosLib team who could help? Thanks!
