Just started using Embarcadero XE5, and trying to install DPF Delphi iOS Native Components, but fails to get it working. I've followed the installation instructions in Install.txt.
1: 1-1 - 1-3 OK.
2: Should I only add the listed FWs? There seems to be a lot more in the downloaded zip?
3: Skipped
4: Selected Win32, and build. How do I Install?
5: Tried to deploy - not sure if it worked.
Then tried to open a few of the demos supplied in the zip, and get errors like:'Class TDPFUIView not found. ...' while opening the project.
Would appreciate if someone could point out what I'm missing/doing wrong!
Thanks in advance! :-)

Did it install ok, and the demos just wont compile?
Make sure you have added the dpf path to libraries in Options.. did you do that? If not, demos wont compile.

I think the installation failed - probably because of my lack of knowledge of using XE5. I did follow the steps in the Install.txt, but not sure if I understod it all correct. See my questions in original message.
Thanks!

I finally cracked it. As mentioned in the first post, I didn't understand the instruction 'install' in the Install.txt. But by right-clicking on the project itself, in the project view, I found the 'Install'.
And now I can build to the simulator. :-)

But you also need to tell delphi the path of the files.. Did you go to
Tools
Options
Delphi Options
Library
Library Path
And add the location of the DPF files?
So, you need to
put the files on your drive..
install the IOS lib paths , as explained in the DPF docs..
put the path of the DPF files in Tools, Options, Delphi Options, library etc..
Open the Project file of DPF..
Clean , build, Install..
Thats it..
You should see a popup saying that the components have been installed, and see them on the right side..
Then open the demo, choose target platform on the right side by clicking left then activate.. Should be able to run it on the simulator.. as for your phone.. you will need to set up certs etc.. which is a different question..
Tried to send you a private email.. bounced back.. saying bad address..

You can contact me directly if you need.. It took me a while to figure the whole thing out..

Thanks for all your help Gordon, but as I wrote, I now have it working. I already have implemented a TableView and deployed it to my iPhone.
Not sure why your mail bounced - my mail address seem ok.
Thanks again!
