Just chose option to convert packages without renaming them when you open it in delphi and installation will go trough....

a) I guess it is a renaming issue inside the SVN code, could someone check the SVN and execute a trial installation ??

b) at
http://www.delphipraxis.net/164241-delp ... ost1134657 I made a short tutorial on ZEOS and Delphi XE2 ,
can some check and give me feed back, if I 'm doing something wrong??

c)willing to send the *.doc of this tutorial, We may put it somewhere here in that forrum

Hi there people,

I'm having some troubles with ZeosLib. I've made all the instructions to compile it, but still I didn't make it.

The package that I'm using is the latest version from svn, the package Delphi16 which I suppose that is the version of XE2.

I'm using a Windows 7 64bits and DelphiXE2. I've added the x64 to all *.bpl but made active the x86, because some of the files seems to be unable to compile in x64.

I've added the zeos\branches\testing\src\ to the Delphi library, so the missing files shouldn't show.

That's when the problem occurs. When I compile all the files, an error shows:
[DCC Fatal Error] ZAbstractConnection.pas(64): F1026 File not found: 'ZDbcAdo.dcu'

If every files that zeos uses to compile are in the .src path, then this problem shouldn't occur. Basing on this, I've added all of others folders to the library, to try if any "missing files" would show.

The problem still happens. I don't know what to do :/

Can anyone help me?

did you added zeos to x64 library path? there are two paths now in delphi, one for 32bit and one for 64bit...

The zcomponent.pas had a bug, there is one {$endid} which I had to remove prior to the installation

Same bug here: {$endid}

For many years zeos is complicated to install!

Hi, Can you tell which svn version has that bug?

Because I did a deep search into the source and I haven't found that error

bernhard · Post by **bernhard** » 03.12.2011, 11:40

Hi,

will do 2 action items

a) send you *.pdf

b) do a fresh download and installation of current ZEOS lib from source forge and report my results here

bernhard · Post by **bernhard** » 03.12.2011, 15:42

compile error at current version @ svn testing (961)

invalid $endif at Zcomponent.dpk Line 58, pls, remove bug from svn

bernhard · Post by **bernhard** » 03.12.2011, 15:55

install result : OK version 961 from SVN ( 5 minute to success)

problems : you have to set the path according to the manual *.pdf !!!!!!!!
( see geman delphi praxis and download it from there)

Check that this is true for all subcomponets, if not do it again... you will see DELPHI claims that some *.dcu can not be found !!!!

the small $endif buf is still in the repository - if you remove that ... compile and install is not problem at all

bernhard · Post by **bernhard** » 03.12.2011, 17:04

except the small $endif bug in the svn compile, bild & install is fine

I have been following this thread and hoped that at the end there would some guidlines on how to actually go about installing Zeos on XE2.
