Thread How to Build the DBAdmin Tool in Delphi
Fri, Aug 17 2007 10:58 AMPermanent Link

Scott Woods
Hi - I am just getting started with the Elevate DB (purchased yesterday).  I am trying to re-compile the source for the admin tool (and server) and get an error saying it can
not find the components:

TEDBTaskPaneScrollBox ,
TEDBToolbar,
etc..

Where do I find the files that have these components defined?

Thanks,
Scott

They are located in the edbutilcomps.pas unit.  Just install it in the
package of your choosing, and then you can re-compile the EDB Manager.

Jeff:

You can find information on recompiling the EDB Server here (the
original URL is very long):

I hope this gets you started in the right direction.

Hi,

In a post in 2007, Tim gave this advice about installing the missing EDB components:

<< They are located in the edbutilcomps.pas unit.  Just install it in the
package of your choosing, and then you can re-compile the EDB Manager. >>

In Delphi 7 I would do this as follows:
Components > Install Component... > tab "Into new Package"

But what menu path should I follow in Delphi 2007 for Win32? There doesn't
seem to be the same option for installing a single *.pas component file.
These are the options:
 New VCL Component...    (uses a named ancestor component)
 Install Packages...           (only *.bpl or *.dpc)
 Import Component...       (only a type library, ActiveX or .NET assembly)

Thanks,
Dan

Just add the pas file directly to package:

- file->new package
- in project manager, right click on package and select Add
- browse to and add edbutilcomps.pas
- right click on package again and select install

it should tell you that new components have been added.
