TZUpdateSQL Editor missing in D5 ??

[IbeDBob]

Hi All,

I am just getting involved with Firebird and Zeos. Steep learning curve but looks like really cool stuff.

I am testing on D5-Ent and I drop a TZUpdateSQL on the form and right click and no "Editor" option. I double-click and I get to the code section for the "AfterDeleteSQL" event just because it is the first on the list of events. But no editor.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks

On Delphi 4 and Delphi 5 this property is disabled, because of several properties that are missing. Anyway, spending some extra time, change

Open ..\src\component\ZComponentReg.pas

and change

uses
{$IFDEF WITH_PROPERTY_EDITOR}
ZPropertyEditor,
{$IFDEF FPC}
PropEdits,
ZUpdateSqlEditor,
ComponentEditors,
LResources,
{$ELSE}
{$IFNDEF UNIX}
{$IFNDEF FPC}
ZUpdateSqlEditor,
{$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF}
{$IFNDEF VER130BELOW}
DesignIntf,
{$ELSE}
DsgnIntf,
{$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF}
Classes, ZConnection, ZDataset, ZSqlUpdate, ZSqlProcessor, ZStoredProcedure,
ZSqlMonitor, ZSqlMetadata, ZSequence{$IFDEF ENABLE_INTERBASE}, ZIBEventAlerter {$ENDIF};

After that it is necessary change some lines on ZSqlTestForm.pas and ZQuerySQLEditor.pas. Yif you want I can send you that files with changes

That would be great thank you.

I also notice that "RequestLive" is mentioned in this great tutorial...

...but I do not have that. Is that no longer a Property?

Thanks

RequestLive

This has since 6.5.1 be replaced by 'ReadOnly' property. (Of course : this is the negative version of requestlive)

seawolf,
Do these changes impact compatibility with other compilers? If not, we could apply them as a fix to the 6.6 sources.
