BDS2006 - TppDataDictionary Builder Settings

edited November 2007 in End User
BDS2006, RB 10.06, Advantage DB
----------------------------------------
We are converting our D7 projects to BDS2006.

We copied the daAds.pas from the source folder to the lib folder. The "Lib"
folder is in the Library Path.

In the IDE, when we select the TppDataDictionary, we do not get a populated
dropdown list for the BuilderSettings-Database property ... which means that
we cannot set the Session property to ADSSessions.

Any ideas?

    Hi Patrick,

    You need to build and install the included design time package into the
    Delphi IDE in order to use the datadictionary with an ADSSession. You will
    find the rbAds1010.dpk in the same directory as the Advantage demo.

    Nico,

    Thanks. I copied the rbAds1010.dpk into the Lib folder and tried to compile
    from the BDS2006 IDE. I get an error in the "requires" clause ... the error
    says that it cannot locate Adsd70.

    Hi Patrick,

    You may need to open the rbAds1010.dpk and alter the requires clause to
    include the files correct for the version of Advantage you have installed.
