#6 Install / Compile Error

[Kevin Oleniczak]

On D6 enterprise the update pack 2...

Trying to compile and install:
XMLPartner_PD60.dpk

I receive this error:
[Error] RLINK32: Unsupported 16bit resource in
file "G:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi6
\Source\XMLPartner\packages\..\source\XpReg.pas"

Others have reported this same problem on D6.

Any ideas?

A little more info...

I tried to compile and install the D7 version...

XMLPartner_PD70.dpk

and that appears to work?!?

I think the problem is related to the component icons for
XpParser and XpObjModel on the tool bar.

See Tracker: Typos in 2.60 beta 1 for a fix for this. The
XMLPartner_PD60.dpk has two lines malformed in it.

The error is caused by a couple of apexes in the dpk file.

The correct version of XMLPartner_PD60.dpk is the following :

package XMLPartner_PD60;

{$R *.res}
{$R '..\source\XpReg.dcr'}
{$ALIGN 8}
{$ASSERTIONS OFF}
{$BOOLEVAL OFF}
{$DEBUGINFO OFF}
{$EXTENDEDSYNTAX ON}
{$IMPORTEDDATA ON}
{$IOCHECKS ON}
{$LOCALSYMBOLS OFF}
{$LONGSTRINGS ON}
{$OPENSTRINGS ON}
{$OPTIMIZATION ON}
{$OVERFLOWCHECKS OFF}
{$RANGECHECKS OFF}
{$REFERENCEINFO OFF}
{$SAFEDIVIDE OFF}
{$STACKFRAMES OFF}
{$TYPEDADDRESS OFF}
{$VARSTRINGCHECKS ON}
{$WRITEABLECONST ON}
{$MINENUMSIZE 1}
{$IMAGEBASE $400000}
{$DESCRIPTION 'TurboPower XMLPartner Professional
Designtime package - VCL60'}
{$DESIGNONLY}
{$IMPLICITBUILD ON}

requires
designide,
XMLPartner_PR60;

contains
XpReg in '..\source\XpReg.pas';

end.

Using this modification stopped the RLINK32 error for me. The telling correction is the use of the .dcr extension on the "{$R '..\source\XpReg.dcr'}" line. The old "{$R '..\source\XpReg.pas'}" screwed up.
As a related problem, there's a syntax error down at the file's bottom saying " XpReg in '..\source\XpReg.pas'XpReg.pas';" This should read " XpReg in '..\source\XpReg.pas';"
Happy compiling.
