Uses clause and updating

edited December 2007 in General
Uses clause

Just installed Delphi 2007 and RB 11 from Delphi 6 and RB 9

Is there a list of unit changes for the uses clause

And do I need to open each report designer individually in order for the
properties, methods, and event to be updated?

The Release.doc was a little vague.


TIA

    Hi Mojoala,

    Wow, I don't even have RB 11 yet :).

    For the most part, the uses clause should be the same. All reports created
    in RB 9 are compatible with RB 10.x. Are you running across any problems
    when compiling your application?

    Okay, this is getting frustrating.

    I compile and it tells me it can't find the dcu's.

    I delete them all and they get put back in the uses clause and tells me it
    can't find them.

    TIA

    This is a quirk of Delphi 2007. Try removing any greyed out enteries from
    your library path and move the \RBuilder\Lib\... entry near the top of the
    list.

    Thanks Nico, that did the trick.

    Clarification:

    I got the 11 idea from the download: rbpro11d.exe

    I guess the 11d means delphi 11(2007).

    Also a correction to the prior version, we were coming from version 6 of RB.

    Thanks again.

    ouch...if I understand you.

    I have not started using D2007, but this sounds like it is going to be a
    major problem.

    I have numerous gray entries in the path to source code on purpose, where I
    put an 'x' priro to the path so that I can easily restore path settings to
    source when I need to.

    Are you indicating that this will cause problems in D2007?

    Thanks

    Hi Ed,

    I've only actually experienced this issue once (when I first installed D2007
    on my machine). Since then I have not seen a problem and I have numerous
    greyed out enteries in my library path as well. I'm unsure but I would
    suspect that this bug was perhaps fixed for the latest update of the
    product.
