I have followed the instructions to the letter and I am stuck... Was
wondering if anyone could assist please... I am desperate.... Gotta
recompile this program this evening:
Anyway, here is what is going on.. Ran the RXINST program, placed the file
in
($DELPHI)\rx\units
Compiled RXCTL4.DPK -> RXCTL4.BPL
Compiled RXDB4.DPK -> RXDB4.BPL
I then moved the BPL's to a searchable DOS path as requested in the readme.
I placed them in c:\WINDOWS.
Then it says I need the design-time packages which are DCLRX4.DPK &
DCLRXDB4.DPK (In this order.) So I open the first (DCLRX4.DPK) click
compile, then install. Shortly after pressing install I get the error:
"Can't load package c:\Program Files\Borland\Delpji4\RX\Units\dclrx4.bpl. A
device attached to the system is not functioning." My only option at this
point is "OK".
I really would appreciate some insight into this if anyone could help.
Also, please see below the documentation from the readme.txt that came with
RXLib.
Run RXINST.EXE.
Before installing RX Library components into Delphi, check out RX.INC
file located in RX\UNITS subdirectory. This file is included in all RX
Library units and contains conditional defines that affects compilation.
You can change some of these defines or specify global compiler options
there.
1. Delphi 4.x:
Uninstall previous installed version of RX Library from Delphi 4 IDE.
Remove previously compiled RX packages (if any) RXCTL4.BPL, RXDB4.BPL,
DCLRX4.BPL and DCLRXDB4.BPL from your hard disk.
Use "File\Open..." menu item of Delphi IDE to open RX' runtime
package RXCTL4.DPK. In "Package..." window click "Compile" button to
compile packages RXCTL4.DPK. After compiling repeat that for other RX
Library run-time package RXDB4.DPK. Put compiled BPL files into directory
that is accessible through the search PATH (i.e. DOS "PATH" environment
variable; for example, in the Windows\System directory). After
compiling RX run-time packages you must install RX design-time packages
into the IDE.
Use "File\Open..." menu item to open consistently RX design-time
packages DCLRX4.DPK (MUST be first) and DCLRXDB4.DPK.
In "Package..." window click "Compile" button to compile the package
and then click "Install" button to register RX Library components on
the "RX Controls", "RX DBAware" and "RX Tools" pages.
NOTE: do not save package sources in the Delphi IDE.
