D2010 and zeos,

Hi All,

Currently we are using BDS2006 and the zeos database components for accessing a MySQL server.
We need to upgrade since BDS2006 will not much longer be supported and we are expanding the developer team.

Are there any options of compiling a version of zeoslib on D2010 to make the BDS2006 code run under 2010 ?
I'm not looking forward replacing all data access components with another component :cry:

Thanks in advance,
Rgds

[EDIT]

Just see a download is now available in " Delphi 2010 compatibility".
Any comments on this ? Does it work ?

Hi,

You could try to use the snapshot version for zeoslib 7.x.
It's not stable yet, but maybe with a little help we could make it so.
I believe the worst mysql issue is the failing BLOB support. So if you're not using BLOB's you might be lucky.
(As long as D2010 doesn't force you to use 64-bit mode, because that's a second weak point of Zeoslib)

Managed to get it installed in D2010, also with patch from this
http://zeos.firmos.at/viewtopic.php?t=2521 post.

Took some hasseling with folders and non-found XXX140 files as mentioned before.
I'm of testing next week with this...

I have some BLOB data in table though :(
