Tee Chart Compile Error

rbuser

I am running Delphi 7 with RB 7.02 and have purchased the full Steema
TeeChart version 6.01 and I am trying to get them all on the same version.
I am currently gettting the following error:

ppChrtDP was compiled w/different version of TeeProcs.Tcustom
TeepanelExtended

According to your instructions that I have seen in this newsgroup, I have
done the following steps:

Reinstalled Report Builder
-redirected my bpl output
-recompiled the dpk packages in the ..\rbuilder\teechart\tee600 directory
(two variances from the online help - I had to recombile rbtcui77 because it
gave me an invalid version in another dpk and I had to add the designide.dcp
to the dclrbc77.dpk to get it to compile under delphi 7 as well as change
the ifdef statement that only included delphi 6 and lower)
-I copied the updated dcu's, dcp's and bpl's to the ..\rbuilder\lib folder
after verifying that the dates had changed
- I coped the updated bpl's to my c:\windows\system32 ( I am running XP
Professional)
-I copied the ppchxx.pas files to ..\rbuilder\source even though only the
date on the ppchreg.pas changed
-I removed the Rbuilder Teechart package, exited, then re-added it

Did I miss a hoop somewhere?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Karen,

The reason you are seeing this error is that we released RB 7.03 a week or
so before Steema released TeeChart 6.01 so the dcu files were compiled with
TeeChart 6.0 in mind. To solve this problem, simply change your library
path from \RBuilder\Lib to \RBuilder\Source and rebuild. This will create
new TeeChart .dcu files that can be moved to the \Lib folder replacing the
old ones. Once this is done you can chang the library path back to
\RBuilder\Lib and everything should work correctly.

This problem has been ongoing for over 6 months now. When are you
going to supply a new installs the correct files? This has cost me a
lot of time over the last 6 months because I had to rebuild my machine
twice and each time I have to go through the process of figuring out
why the stuff won't compile, then tracking down the fix, and
implementing it.

Mike,

Are you still experiencing a problem? If so, please let me know and I'll
work to find a solution for you. ReportBuilder 7.03 was designed to support
TeeChart 6.0 as described in the ReportBuilder documentation. The next
release of ReportBuilder will support the latest version of TeeChart.
Thanks for you patience.

No I am not experiencing the problem now, but if I have to rebuild my
machine againg before the next release, then I will have to go through
it all over again. Can you guys zip up the dcu's compiled with .6.01
and make them available for download for your customers, so we don't
have to rebuild the source and figure out which files need to be
replaced?

Thanks.
