ReportBuilder Professional 10.09 for Delphi 2006

edited February 2009 in DADE
We have moved our development from Delphi 7 to Delphi 2006. We are
having difficulty porting D7 apps that use RB.

Specifically, ADSSession is not listed in the dropdown for
BuilderSettings.SessionType.

Is there any documentation that describes how to install / integrate
daADS / rbADSxxx into Delphi 2006? ... the MSWD doc in the
Advantage\Native folder applies to Delphi version prior to Delphi 2006.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Patrick?

    Hi Patrick,

    You are going to need to compile and install the rbADS1010.dpk located in
    the \RBuilder\Demos\4. EndUser Databases\Advantage\Native\... directory to
    have the ADSSession type available in the Delphi IDE. You may need to alter
    the Requires clause of the package to match the package versions and names
    used for your version of ReportBuilder and Advantage.

    The same information applies that is given in the ReadMe.doc even though it
    may refer to an earlier version of Delphi.

    Thanks, Nico. Using the Delphi 2006 IDE, I selected

    Component | Install Packages...

    and then selected the rbADS1010.dpk located in the Advantage\Native
    folder.

    An error popup was displayed with "Invalid Package File..." message.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks, Patrick

    Hi Patrick,

    You first need to compile the rbADS1010.dpk package before installing. Take
    a look at the steps outlined in the ReadMe.doc located in the Advantage
    directory, specifically the "Compiling the ReportBuilder DADE Advantage
    Package" section.
