It's working quite nice. When I said "buggy" I meant the Alpha #1 download
has known bugs which are all fixed in current SVN revision. I'm currently 
not aware of a bug in current head revision neither from own experience 
nor from reports in this list, however that does not guarantee that it
_is bug-free.

At first take a look at the Subversion log and decide whether current
changes are important to you. If so, update your local work copy.
You are even able to switch your work copy back to any previous
SVN revision number available, useful if the head revision introduced
some bug, for example.

You have to rebuild each package which uses this ICS.

Usually a rebuild is enough, however we modified packaging recently,
so if you have a version installed which is not yet split up in a 
design-time and run-time package an uninstall is required first
(and vice versa). Same applies if you upgrade or downgrade from a 
different version number (V5 to V6 for example), if you use the.

No, for each Delphi unit a .dcu, .hpp and .obj file is created,
output path of the .obj and .dcu files can be spezified in the 
project options somewhere.

I initially downloaded from the website, using the most obvious link on the 
page ( http://www.overbyte.be/frame_index.html?redirTo=/products/ics.html ), 
but that turns out to be a very old version indeed. Via this link : 
javascript:top.StartDownload('eng', 'arch/OverbyteIcsV7_Alpha1.zip');
The help file makes no mention of Builder 2009.

Meanwhile I downloaded the latest version via SVN and that text file does 
INDEED mention how to install under Builder.  I will try asap !

How is the latest and greatest (HEAD) version doing lately ?  Still buggy as 
mentioned ?

Also, supposing I can install and use the component correctly.
What do I best do when source files have been updated ?
I mean, how do I make sure that the installed component uses the newer 
source ?
Just rebuild, or also uninstall and install the components again ?
Is the build source stored in a lib file ?  And where is this lib file 
located then ?

At first download the latest source code, alpha version 7 is buggy:
http://wiki.overbyte.be/wiki/index.php/FAQ

The readme is updated partly as well, should be an easy task.

[twsocket] CG2009 installation

2009-04-13 Thread Peter Van Hove
Hi,

I downloaded alpha version 7 from the website but seem to be oblivious on how 
to properly install the components on C++ Builder 2009 ?
The readme does explain it for Delphi, but the mentioned files won't open in 
Builder because of the so called Delphi.Identity missing ?
I already installed Delphi as well (I'm still in the 30 days trial) but that 
doesn't seem to change things.
I'm pretty sure I can now install it in Delphi, following the instructions, but 
how do I get it up and running under C++ Builder ?

Thanks.
