How can I install zeoslib on Delphi XE8 ?

[davy]

I would like to use zeoslib in XE8, but I have some build issues.

ZCompatibility.pas: Ambiguoug overloaded call to 'CharInSet'
on the second while loop

Code: Select all

function AnsiProperCase(const S: string; const WordDelims: TSysCharSet): string;
var
  P,PE : PChar;
begin
  Result:=AnsiLowerCase(S);
  P:=PChar(pointer(Result));
  PE:=P+Length(Result);
  while (P<PE) do
    begin
    while (P<PE) and CharInSet(P^, WordDelims) do  <----
      inc(P);
    if (P<PE) then
      P^:=UpCase(P^);
    while (P<PE) and not (CharInSet(P^, WordDelims)) do
      inc(P);
    end;
end;

Can you make your XE8 Packages and source updates available in svn?

thanks

Hello davy,

which Version of Zeos do you intend to use? The patch that was supplied by cacofony is for Zeos 7.2. But somehow I doubt it will solve your problem. Did you checkout the latest version from the testing-7.2 branch?
With best regards,

Jan

Dear Jan,

I tried the latest revision 3638.
I tried different branches 7.1, testing-7.2, testing -7.3, but all with the same result.

Do you know someone using zeos on XE8?

Thanks
Davy

Hello davy,

it seems that Michal (Miab3) uses Delphi XE8. It also seems that he has some packages available for compiling Zeos with Delphi XE8. I will ask him for his packages.
With best regards,

Jan

Sorry for my ignorance but how can I apply or install that patch (provided by cacofony) because I am in the same situation, i am trying to compile the Zeos 7.1.4 for XE7 in XE8 and get the "Ambiguous overloaded call to 'CharInSet' error" in ZSysUtils.pas.

Thanks!
