Zeoslib Portal

I assume that Delphi 5 Standard cannot be used with zeos because of missing db.pas unit, right ? Could someone confirm before I will try fix problems with install like missing DateUtils unit ?

Affirmative It's the same like with this thread

OK.I could write my own TDataset but it's much more hassle than I want,so I must use Lazarus.
Is Zeos working under Lazarus and install without problems ?

By the way I use early 6.5.1-alfa, but when I try to install 6.5.1-alfa_cvs_26-09-2005 I've got a message that I have no DateUtils.dcu file.
I use the same Delphi5 Enterprise

I think DateUtils.dcu is a new unit in Delphi 6. Having this dependency limits Zeos to versions newer than this for no good reason that I can see.

One of the developers should have a look at this.

Maybe this can help you : a simple replacement for decodeDateTime:

[syntax="delphi"]unit DateUtils;

interface
uses
Sysutils;

procedure DecodeDateTime(Date : TDateTime; Year,Month,Day,Hour,Min,Sec,MSec : Word);

implementation

procedure DecodeDateTime(Date : TDateTime; Year,Month,Day,Hour,Min,Sec,MSec : Word);
begin
DecodeDate(Date,Year,Month,Day);
DecodeTime(Date,Hour,Min,Sec,MSec);
end;

begin
end.[/syntax]

Michael,
Maybe it's better to leave out the line numbers when formatting the code. So we don't have to strip them if we copy it to a unit. I'lll try to attach a stripped version to this reply. Unfortunately I had to zip this little piece of text because .pas files are not allowed as attachment. It would be nice if it were possible to attach '*.pas,*.txt' as well.

btw Any plans to add this unit to the code of Zeoslib

@mdeams:

I didn't consider this point. But after thinking about it: you're right. I've deactivated the line numbering. Better now?
