Hi,

I abandoned tries to install Indy 10, and I want now
to install Indy 9.018 on BCB6.

I have found few procedures in this NG, but I'm still
curious about few steps. In fact, I succeded to
install and launch but I'm curious if I can expect some
issues because I couldn't find some files that were
mentioned in the procedure:

I market problem files by:

<NOTE>
// Problem ...
</NOTE>

My procedure (based Colin B Maharaj)


Downloading
-----------

1. Download Indy 9.0.18 source
2. Download Indy 9.0.17 source
3. Download Indy 9.0.11 source

Merging files
-------------

4. Create a folder Indy9018 on Desktop (in fact anywhere
outside BCB Install folder because of later deletion
of old Indy8 files)

5. Copy all Indy 9.0.18 source files into Indy9018

6. Copy files (from 9.0.17 source):

Clean.bat
Fullc6.bat
SetEnv.bat
Computil.exe
lspFix.exe

... into Indy9018

7. Copy file (from 9.0.11 source):

IndyWin32.rsp

... into Indy9018


Removing old Indy 8 files
-------------------------

8. Remove all Indy 8 files from the BCB6 Install
folder (for example):

C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder6

dclindy*.bpl
indy*.bpl
dclindy.*
indy*.lib
id*.pas
id*.hpp
id*.obj
id*.dcu

(who knows how to use TotalCommander, this is the pattern:
dclindy*.bpl;indy*.bpl;dclindy.*;indy*.lib;id*.pas;id*.hpp;id*.obj;id*.dcu)

9. Try to remove:

indy*.bpl

... from:

(I HAVEN'T ANY ON MY SYSTEM?!)
<NOTE>
C:\WINDOWS\System
C:\WINDOWS\System32
</NOTE>


Copying Indy9018 into BCB
-------------------------

10. Copy (or move) the whole folder:

Indy9018

... into:

C:\Program Files\Borland\CBuilder6\Source\

Running the script
------------------

11. Run the BAT file:

Fullc6.bat

12. After BAT file execution has been finished
a folder "C6" should be seen next to the folder
Indy9018

Copying more files into C6 folder
---------------------------------

13. Copy all the source files (from Indy9018)

*.pas

... into folder:

C6

Copying files from C6 to the BCB/WIN system folders
---------------------------------------------------

14. Copy (and sometimes first rename) files from
folder C6 into specified BCB/WIN system folder:

dclindy60.bpl -> (BCB6)\Bin\dclindy60.bpl

<NOTE> I HAVEN'T indy60.bpl AT ALL ON MY SYSTEM !!!
indy60.bpl -> (BCB6)\Bin\indy60.bpl
indy60.bpl -> (BCB6)\Bin\indy.bpl (renamed)
indy60.bpl -> (WINDOWS)\System32\indy60.bpl
</NOTE>


indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\indy60.lib
indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Debug\indy60.lib
indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Release\indy60.lib

indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\indy.lib (renamed)
indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Debug\indy.lib (renamed)
indy60.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Release\indy.lib (renamed)


<NOTE> I HAVE ONLY: dclIndy60.bpl & dclIndy60.res ON MY SYSTEM !!!
dclindy.dpk -> (BCB6)\Source\Indy\dclindy.dpk
dclindy.res -> (BCB6)\Source\Indy\dclindy.res

dclindy.dcp -> (BCB6)\Lib\Obj\dclindy.dcp
dclindy.dcu -> (BCB6)\Lib\Obj\dclindy.dcu
</NOTE>


<NOTE> I HAVE ONLY indy60.lib !!!
indy.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Debug\indy.lib
indy.lib -> (BCB6)\Lib\Release\indy.lib
</NOTE>

*.pas -> (BCB6)\Source\Indy\
*.hpp -> (BCB6)\Include\Vcl\

<NOTE> I HAVEN'T idpas32.obj
idpas32.obj -> (BCB)\Source\vcl\idpas32.obj
</NOTE>

*.dcu -> (BCB)\Lib\Obj\

Indy60.bpi -> (BCB)\Lib\Indy60.bpi

Hello,

Why do yoy dont't use the snapshot ?ż?


>Downloading
>-----------
you should download the latest snapshot or released version (only one)


>Merging files
>-------------

don't do that


>Removing old Indy 8 files
>-------------------------

this is required . . . .


>Running the script
>------------------

before doing that try following

open full_c6.bat in your Editor and change this lines:


%NDC6%\bin\tlib.exe Indy60.lib /P32 @IndyWin32.rsp >nul
to
%NDC6%\bin\tlib.exe Indy60.lib /P32 @IndyWin32.rsp
or
%NDC6%\bin\tlib.exe Indy60.lib /P32 @Indy60.lsp .

(this Info was posted a few messages ago to this Group)

the C6 contains all Files do you need. Rename indy.lib to indy60.lib


>Copying more files into C6 folder
>---------------------------------

You don't have to do that, after this - you have to install the Indy-Package
in the BCB6 IDE and Add the Pathes to Indy (../C6) to your Project-Options.
Then it should run properly.
