1. RAIZE COMPONENTS - DEMONSTRATION PROGRAM
The demonstration program contained in this directory was created entirely
using the components that are included with Raize Components. The purpose of
the demonstration program is to highlight many of the features and capabilities
of the components and controls in Raize Components.
Delphi Developers
-----------------
To compile and run the RCDemo program in Delphi, simply load the RCDemo.dpr
project file into Delphi and compile and run the program.
C++Builder Developers
---------------------
Since the RCDemo program was written in Delphi, it is not possible to load the
RCDemo.dpr file into C++Builder. However, there is actually very little code in
the demonstration project. Most of the code is simply used to display the
various frames containing the component groups.
Using the following steps you can build the RCDemo in C++Builder.
1. Create a new project in C++Builder.
2. Select the "Project|Add to project" menu item. Switch the file type to
Pascal files. And then add MainForm.pas file from the Demo folder.
3. Next, Select the "Project|Remove from project" menu item and remove the
Unit1.cpp file from the project.
4. Next, Select the "Project|Options" menu item and switch to the "Packages"
page. Make sure the "Build with runtime packages" check box is checked.
5. Save the new project to RCDemoCB.bpr.
6. Try to compile and run the application. If you get a linker error, please
continue with step 7.
7. Although the compiler should correctly add the appropriate lib files to the
configuration settings for the project, this does not always happen. To fix
this close the project in C++Builder and then open the RCDemoCB.cbproj file
with Notepad. Locate the <AllPackageLibs> tag and make sure that is has at
least the following lib files listed:
<AllPackageLibs>rtl.lib;vcl.lib;dbrtl.lib;dsnap.lib;vcldb.lib;RaizeComponentsVcl
.lib;RaizeComponentsVclDb.lib</AllPackageLibs>
Save the RCDemoCB.cbproj file and then reload the project in C++Builder. You
will then be able to compile and run the demo program.
