rvrb102006.bpl not compatible with RB10.10.5

Post by MikeDunn »

Hi,

I am a beginner. Clean install of Delphi2007 RAD for Win32. Purchased latest version of RichView April 15, 2008. Installed latest version of ReportBuilder v10. Trying to work on an existing project that uses ppRichView. Downloaded the TRichView Wrapper for ReportBuilder 10. When trying to compile rvrb10D2006.bdsproj, it is looking for rbRCL1010 and rbIDE1010, but my version of ReportBuilder has rbRCL10105.dcp and rbIDE10105.dcp.

How do I compile and install ppRichView in my D2007?

Thanks,

Mike

You try to install the package for Delphi 2006 to Delphi (or C++Builder) 2007. It does not work, because it refers to packages for Delphi 2006.

Unfortunately, I do not have RVRB packages for RAD Studio 2007. But you can create them yourself by following the instructions.
1. Install TRichView and ReportBuilder packages.
2. Create a new package ("File | New | Package - Delphi for Win32", or "File | New | Package - C++Builder"). Save them as rvrb10D2007.dproj (if for Delphi) or rvrb10CB2007.cbproj (if for C++Builder)
3. Add the following *.pas units in the package: ppRichViewEd, ppRichViewReportDesign, ppRichViewDsgn, ppRichViewCustomEd, ppRichView (right click on "Contains" in the Project Inspector, choose "Add...")
4. Add the following files in "Requires" of this package: RVPkgD2007.dcp (if for Delphi) or RVPkgCB2007.bpi (if for C++Builder), and the corresponding file for RB package (rbRCL10105.dcp and rbIDE10105.dcp for Delphi, not sure which files for C++Builder) (right click on "Requires" in the Project Inspector, choose "Add Reference...")
5. Save this package and install it.
And please send this package to me to include in the main installation.

I was able to create the new .dproj for D2007, compile and install it, but I did get an error.....

"Error creating form: Ancestor for TfrmCustomppRichViewEditor not found"

I don't know if this error will effect me when I try to compile my actual project, but it did compile the D2007.dproj and installed without errors. This error only occured when I complied the D2007.dproj. It still created my missing .dcu files so that is good.

NOTE: You asked that I send you the new package, how do I do that? is there a direct e-mail for you?
