Zeoslib Portal

I have V7 compiled and installed in Delphi2010, for use with Firebird V2.5. This is my first brush with Zeos and with Firebird.

I tried to run the embedded demo.

For the TZConnection protocol, the list only goes to 2.1.

The code in the demo uses ClientDataSet, but that is not on the Zeos palette.

Thanks for any pointers to help me over this bump.

Rgds, Mike

I figured out the ClientDataSet part.

To resolve D2010 not keeping the tool palette populated, I had to add the Build path to the OS Path.

Still wondering about the reference to Firebird 2.1.

Also looking for Delphi code snippets for manipulating/displaying data without using data bound controls.

FB 2.5 has been added by andrevanzuydam on 25/9/2010 in SVN testing branch in revision 818 and has been merged to trunk on oktober 12.
They should be available in the snapshots download directory now. (http://zeosdownloads.firmos.at/downloads/snapshots/)
Concerning the code snippets look at the examples directory in your zeoslib distro: examples\dbc -> when you want to work without the visual components and the TDataset support
For TDatasetSupport wthout using visual components, just have a look at the TDataset documentation in Delphi or Lazarus help. It should be clear enough to help you on the road. As TZQuery is a descendant of TDataset all methods explained there should work the same.
