Subject Re: [IBO] IBO4.8 ib_components.pas file missing
Author irogla
Ok, thanks for the quick answer.

I'm currently moving from intrbase to firebird, and from ibx to ibo.
In interbase/ibx I manually started a transaction every time I did
some db operation, then I commited it.

When moving to firebird/ibo i'm not 100% sure if I should do the same
or not. So I tried doing the same as before, but the problem was
transactions were already open and I tried to open it again etc. This
caused an error, and an error message popped up: a small window saying
it couldn't find ib_components.pas. I think the error system wanted to
pinpoint the error in this file. I simply thought it was something
else, but now i understand.

I just have to learn more exactly how to deal with transactions with
FB/IBO and what components to use.

Do anyone have a link for a good guide about these stuff?

> IBO is components: in the Eval version, everything is already
compiled for you. As you said, the design-time and run-time libraries
(.bpl) and the compiled units (.dcu) are there...even if you purchase
the modules, you will have to compile them before you use them.

intentional. You also won't be able to run your application if you
compile it as a library using the Eval version, since it will stop
when it hits that modal dialog.
