Insalling for XE2: Various errors

[TestAlways]

Win 7 64bit
I tried to compile the TeeChart source for XE2 and go the following exception in the (2011.01 120110) "Recompiliation Tool" (though it hasn't been compiled yet ).

Code: Select all

...
TeeMaker111.dpk(91) Warning: W1033 Unit 'TeeTarga' implicitly imported into package 'TeeMaker111'

TeeChart Installation

EXCEPTION:
[b]Cannot delete registry value: $(BDS)\bin\dcltee7100.bpl
 Error Code: 5 Description: Access is denied[/b]

So I uninstalled the full source and installed the XE2 library. Then for the following lines of code (aChart is a TChart):

Code: Select all

procedure AssignChartToGraphic(aChart: TChart; const aRect: TRect; aGraphic: TGraphic);
var
  lHoldBevel: TPanelBevel;
...
begin
  lHoldBevel := aChart.BevelOuter;
..

I get the following exception:

Code: Select all

[b][DCC Error] GeneralFunctions.pas(1505): E2010 Incompatible types: 'TBevelCut' and 'TPanelBevel'[/b]

I tried changing the lHoldBevel to a TBevelCut but the same exception occurs.

I'd like to move with XE2, but this is painful.

How do I get the later item without source to compile?

Hi Ed,

I tried to compile the TeeChart source for XE2 and go the following exception in the (2011.01 120110) "Recompiliation Tool"

Note the first TeeChart VCL version supporting RAD XE2 was v2011.04. Many changes were applied between v2011.03 and v2011.04 exclusively to support XE2, so I guess making v2011.01 work with XE2 won't be simple.

Code: Select all

RAD 2007.Win32 v11 (BDS v5 Enterprise)

I'm a little bit confused. Weren't you trying to compile TeeChart XE2. Here it seems to be trying to compile pakcages for RAD Studio 2007.

Code: Select all

EXCEPTION:
[b]Cannot delete registry value: $(BDS)\bin\dcltee7100.bpl
Error Code: 5 Description: Access is denied[/b]

Did you run TeeRecompile with high privileges? It looks like a lack of permissions to do the job.
Furthermore, dcltee7100 would indicate TeeChart v7 (7100) for Delphi 2007 (7100), the Standard version that comes with the IDE (7100). So again, it seems to be a TeeChart for RAD 2007 compilation, not for XE2. If the list of IDEs looks correct and you selected XE2 in TeeRecompile, it may be just that TeeRecompile wasn't still adapted to XE2. You could try with a newer TeeRecompile version from the actual sources if you still want to install v2011.01 into XE2 but I strongly recommend you to use v2011.04.

So I uninstalled the full source and installed the XE2 library

Do you mean you restored the TeeChart Standard version that came with the XE2 IDE?

Then for the following lines of code (aChart is a TChart):

And you got problems with The Standard version that came with the IDE? I think I haven't understood something correctly.

I went back to the version with source.

I used the latest TeeRecompile that was posted in a different thread.

I now have the exception:

Cannot copy file: F:\Delphi Comps\TeeChart Pro 2011 Full Source Code\Sources\FMXTee.Editor.Tools.ChartImage.pas to F:\Delphi Comps\TeeChart Pro 2011 Full Source Code\Sources\FMX\FMXTee.Editor.Tools.ChartImage.pas

Error Code: 2 Description: The system cannot find the file specified

I checked the source directory and *ChartImage is not there. Here is a screen shot of the directory sorted by file names:



Any ideas? (I am trying to work with the Nov 2011 release of TChart Pro)

FTR, I still haven't got the source code to compile--I could revisit it. I returned to the binary install, and It looks like the Steema installer added the iOS path to the main path. This caused following exception:

[DCC Error] GeneralFunctions.pas(1505): E2010 Incompatible types: 'TBevelCut' and 'TPanelBevel'

I took it out of the path and it is now working fine.

Any ideas on the source install (previous post).

Hi Ed,

The changes in v2011.04 to support XE2 aren't only in TeeRecompile. I'm not sure about what combination are you using here but TeeChart v2011.04 source code version compiles and installs fine for me here in XE2.

Cannot copy file: F:\Delphi Comps\TeeChart Pro 2011 Full Source Code\Sources\FMXTee.Editor.Tools.ChartImage.pas to F:\Delphi Comps\TeeChart Pro 2011 Full Source Code\Sources\FMX\FMXTee.Editor.Tools.ChartImage.pas

Error Code: 2 Description: The system cannot find the file specified

I checked the source directory and *ChartImage is not there. Here is a screen shot of the directory sorted by file names:

I see in my v2011.04 sources folder the same than in your picture.

Any ideas? (I am trying to work with the Nov 2011 release of TChart Pro)

So that should be v2011.04, not 2011.01 as you mention in your first post. I'm getting even more confused :-S

FTR, I still haven't got the source code to compile--I could revisit it. I returned to the binary install, and It looks like the Steema installer added the iOS path to the main path. This caused following exception:

[DCC Error] GeneralFunctions.pas(1505): E2010 Incompatible types: 'TBevelCut' and 'TPanelBevel'

I can't find any reference to "GeneralFunctions" in v2011.04 sources (neither in v2011.03).

Could you please make sure you are using the v2011.04?

"GeneralFunctions.pas" is my unit. The problem was that the installer added 2 paths to the IDE: once for the VCL and a second one for the iOS. Because the BevelOuter setting was in the iOS, an exception occurred. Removing this, and the FMXTee (or FMX--I can't remember) fixed the compiler.
