ExtraDevices & RB7

rbuser

In the following line:

RE.Parent := ppParentWnd;

the recompilation of ExtraDevices package (latest version 2.1) causes an
error. What does ppParentWnd come from? Is it an old RB variable deprecated
in version 7?

Thanks

Hi Sandro,

in unit 'ppDrwCmd' :
function ppParentWnd: TForm;

looks like that function is deprecated in RB7.

Yes Chris, it looks like we've to wait for an updated version of the
package, if DM doesn't give us an advice about something equivalent to
ppParentWnd.

ppParentWnd was taken out for RB 7 to support thread safety. You can
comment out this line when rebuilding Extradevices until Waler gets a new
version released for RB 7.

The new 2.15 version by Jim Waler is out by few ours, supporting RB7! Great
Jim!
