hi,
i hope some one can assist me.
i got a application deloyed in 2001. client now wants some changes but i have already upgraded to d2006.
i got a license for dbism v3.3. would this version be compatible with delphi 2006?

if so, how to get it installed.

any help would be appreciated.

thanks in advance
rashid.

If you have the source you should be able to recompile it. If not the dcu's will be for the version of Delphi you downloaded it for and incompatible with D2006. Looking on the website the latest version for DBISAM is D7 so unless you have the source it looks as though you're out of luck.


Why not do the changes in the old version of Delphi if you still have it?

thanks roy,
that was one of the options i considered. i do not want to do anything that will potentially disrupt my current development work.  
setting aside another pc for a request to increase a entry field in one of the forms seems to a overkill. but with your reply, it seems to be the best option;
(compared to data migration etc)

well thanks for the suggestion.

regards

If you're doing the rebuild work then i suggest go virtual - VMWare for
example .

I have an old D5 as well as D7 VM around just for this type of stuff - and
you can run it all on same dev machine.

And you don't even need a VM. I run D6 & D2006 on the same PC. I just have a separate directory structure for all the addons

Roy,

I was about to say the same thing.  My development machine has D5-D2009,
BCB5-6, Lazarus/FP, and VS6-2008 on it. Smiley

Wow, BP7 and D1 ?  Are you still doing any work with them, or are you just
sentimental ? Smiley

For the record, I'll always love D1, despite its shortcomings and the
shortcomings of 16-bit Windows.

hehe, you never know, really. Last time I used BP7 was in 2000. As for
D1, we still have some D1 stuff flying around, not much, but enough of
a reason to have D1 installed (company policy - I am not the one using
it, no way Smile

> For the record, I'll always love D1

Yessss

No but it does make life easier - last time i replaced my dev machine i
migrated ALL old dev environments to new system in under 20 minutes - just
copy VM files over.

Also any hardware problem would allow me to work with any other machine in
same timeframe.

So convenience mostly.
