A.3.2.2. Building from the IDE

Before you can open any projects, you have to install these components. Otherwise some of the forms will not open and you will receive error messages.

To install the components, goto the mysql-gui-common\source\windows\ directory. Copy the following directories to your Delphi source directory (C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Source\).

  • png

  • SynEdit

  • TNT

  • UniCodeEditor

  • VirtualTreeview

Then doubleclick each *.dpk file outlined below. It will open Delphi. Press compile and install to install the components. Repeat this for each *.dpk file.

  • SynEdit\Packages\SynEdit_D7.dpk

  • TNT\Packages\TntUnicodeVcl_D70.dpk

  • VirtualTreeview\Packages\VirtualTreesD7D.dpk

  • UniCodeEditor\Packages\UniCodeEditorD7.dpk

These components have to be installed via the Install option of the Component menu. Click on the Browse button and select the the files below. Press OK after each file.

  • png\PNGImage.pas

After installing the components you can open the projects as outlined below.

To build the application from the Delphi 7 IDE simply doubleclick the edit_xxxx.cmd. This will launch Delphi 7 and open the file. To generate the complete runtime image select Build All Projects option from the Project menu.

Like for building from command line there are three different files.

  • edit_debug.cmd

  • edit_release.cmd

  • edit_commercial.cmd

The runtime image will be generated in a bin\windows directory.

Opening the Delphi project not using the edit_*.cmd script will lead to incorrect project settings and problems while building the projects.
