Hi,
I'm trying to open dev-cpp project to look into some bugs, but I cannot install SynEdit_D6.dpk. I'm using Delphi 6 (6.2) Entreprise and when I try to install SynEdit I get an error:
[Error] SynDBEdit.pas(64): Undeclared identifier: 'TFieldDataLink'
[Error] SynDBEdit.pas(72): Undeclared identifier: 'TDataSource'
[Error] SynDBEdit.pas(73): Undeclared identifier: 'TField'
and then lots of 'missinng semicolon' but those will problably go away once I get past the above.
Is it supposed to be that way and I should tweak something? I don't want to spend my time trying to fix this if there's an easy solution.
Thanks,
Marek

I have to disagree with you - I wanted to open help develop dev-cpp (open it in delphi), not use it. Anyway the solution was to add "Source" (Vcl\synedit\Source) directory to Search path of synedit.dpk, add DB, DBCtrls, in uses of .dpk and comment out like 50 lines the that file and it worked.... Just if anyone has similar problem.
Colin: I would add "Vcl;Vcl\Parser;Vcl\synedit\Source" into Devcpp.dpr Project->Options Search path. I think you have to do that manually anyway everytime you open it.
Some other stuff I noticed - SelfUpdater.exe compresses to 9k with upx -9 - I don't if we care, but the faster it's streamed to file the better (in my opinion).
My fault Marek, I gorssly misread what you were trying to do...

:) no problem.
It's funny - If someone writes about C++ than the person definitely doesn't belong here. dev-c++ developers forum is a forum for delphi developers ;)
Marek, I added the paths, thanks
