Upgrading to ZEOS 6.6.4

Post by brenlex »

I am trying to upgrade an existing Delphi 5 IDE's set of Zeos components.

My component palette contained tabs showing 'Zeos Access', 'Zeos Common' and 'Zeos Controls' -- I am not sure which version of Zeos was in place, though I found 'VERSION' file contained the text "5.2.3 BETA". To be safe, I uninstalled all references and installed the new 6.6.4 release - but now have only one tab 'Zeos Access'. I now get compilation errors indicating 'file not found' for ZParser.dcr, ZUpdateSql.dcr, ZTransact.dcr, ZMySQLCon.dcr, ZMySQLTr.dcr and ZMySqlQuery.dcr!

Was I suppose to keep a combination of the other Zeos lib files in place, or am I to use other installation packages in conjunction with the 6.6.4 release?

Any assistance much appreciated.

ZParser.dcr, ZUpdateSql.dcr, ZTransact.dcr, ZMySQLCon.dcr, ZMySQLTr.dcr and ZMySqlQuery.dcr are no more used in Zeos (now there is only ZComponent.dcr)

I think you have not completely uninstalled .. i.e. check in your program files\Borland\Delphi5\.. if there any old Zeos bpl and remove it before installing newer Zeos lib.

It looks like there are any zeos bpl which are looking for old .dcr (which were removed)

After do that re-install Zeos libs

Zeos upgrade

That could be a bit tricky, as there are large shared libraries involved containing multiple Zeos instances created at run time.

Many thanks for the clarification of replaced classes seawolf.
