Installing IBO in D2007 from sources.



Open the Project IBO40_D2006



Go to Tools - Options -Environment options - Delphi options -Library Win32.

Now change the Package output directory to your IBO Source directory.

Now change the DCP output directory to your IBO Source directory.

(This will result in all the changes being saved to the IBO source
directory.)



Now we begin the translation:



Right Click, on the project IBO40_D2006, and rename to IBO40_D2007



Now Right Click on the first package: IBO40CRT_D2006.bpl, and rename to
IBO40CRT_D2007.bpl

Expand the requires for the package, and you will see: rtl.dcp, vcl.dcp

Now rightclick on the IBO40CRT_D2007.bpl and compile it.

Now rightclick and save it.



Now procede to the next package in the list:

IBO40TRT_D2006.bpl

Right click and rename to IBO40TRT_D2007.bpl

Expand the requires for the package, and you will see: IBO40CRT_D2006.dcp

This must now point to the correct compiled package.

To do that you: Right click on requires - Add Reference, then browse to your
IBO Source directory, and find IBO40CRT_D2007.dcp (you compiled above
earlier).

Open it.

Now Right click on the IBO40CRT_D2006.dcp, and remove from project.

Now you have the correct refrences in the requires.

Now rightclick on the IBO40TRT_D2007.bpl and compile it.

Now rightclick and save it.



Repeat above steps for the:

VRT, FRT,WRT,XRT,WXRT,WSRT packages. Make sure to correct all the requires
references to D2007.That completes the runtime packages.



Now do the same for the First Designtime Package:

IBO40CDT_D2006..IBO40CDT_D2007

After above steps have been completed, Right click on, and install.

This will successfully install you first designtime package.



Continue in the same manner for the remaining DT packages:

VDT,ADT,FDT,EDT,TDT,WDT,XDT,WXDT,WSDT, asnd also for the FTS and RPL
packages.



You will now have concluded a successful install.

Remember to add a reference to the Library path to your IBO default install
directory, and also to reset your Package output directory, and DCP
directory changed right in the beginning



Hope this helps
