IBO Set Up

edited April 2006 in End User
RB latest version. IBO4. Firebird 1.5 Delphi 7

I followed the instructions in "Using Interbase With IBObjects".
Edd-User Databases.

I was able to add daDatMan to the uses but daIBO was not located.
I have a copy of daibo.pas in an addon sub folder of IBO4 but when I add
that file I receive error messages such as "built with earlier version
of RB".

Without that file I am getting error message 'Folder Pipeline
FolderidField:"FolderId" " could not be found.

Am I on the right track ?

    located daIbo.pas in the Demo sub folder but receive following when I
    build into a new package:

    "[Fatal Error] daIBO.pas(1): Program or unit 'daIBO.pas' recursively
    uses itself"

    Stumped.

    I opened daIBO.pas and checked the 'uses' clause, but daIBO does not appear
    anywhere. I think that error message is incorrect.

    There is a ReadMe.doc installed to RBuilder\Demos\EndUser
    Databases\InterBase\IB Objects that might help. Perhaps you have already
    done this, but a good starting point is to get a run-time example working by
    compiling the EndUser.dpr project installed to the same directory. This is
    simpler because it does not require that you build a package.

    To build the package, you may need to update the 'requires' clause of the
    package to reflect the package names of the RB and IBO version that you are
    using. The rb* references have a suffix of XY where X is the RB version and
    Y is the Delphi version. For example, rbRCL1010 is ReportBuilder 10 for
    Delphi 2006.

    Try following the directions in the ReadMe.doc.

    Thanks
    Changing the IBO in the requires clause fixed it
