I migrated all my components from one pc to another. On the old pc the Jedi JCL installer will correctly detect a Delphi XE2 installation and will show its tab, but on the new pc it does not (it only recognizes a Delphi 7 installation). Notice that on the new pc when I run the jcl install.bat it will use the Delphi XE2 compiler to create the installer exe.
What step can I do to have this sorted out?
The version of Jedi is the latest one at the moment that is 3.47
Problem solved by reinstalling Delphi XE2 (Full installation with registry). The problem was that I had copied the registry keys from my other pc into the new pc. The problematic key was the library key. For some reason the JCL installer did not like the paths in the library, most probably could not find the paths it expected.

The help says "You can use GetIt Package Manager to discover and install additional third-party software onto RAD Studio." but Indy is not available in GetIt
I dowloaded newest files from Github. I run the Fullc_Rio.bat file then opened Indy260.groupproj but when compiling I got:
[Fatal Error] Cannot compile package 'IndySystem260' which is currently required by Delphi 10.3.
Indy comes pre-installed in every IDE version, and has been for a very long time.
However, if you want to install a newer version than what Embarcadero ships, you have to first remove the pre-installed version. This is mentioned in Indy's installation notes:
All package names are followed by X0 (where X0 is your Delphi/C++Builder/RAD Studio product version).
...
If Indy 10 is already installed, it needs to be uninstalled first:
Remove the pre-compiled design-time BPL files - dclIndyCoreX0.bpl and dclIndyProtocolsX0.bpl - from the IDE via the "Components > Install Packages" dialog.
Delete all of the existing binaries - IndySystemX0.*, (dcl)IndyCoreX0.*, and (dcl)IndyProtocolsX0.*
Delete any Indy 10 source files, if present.
Be sure to check for files in the IDE's \bin, \lib, and \source folders, \Indy subfolders, and OS system folders.
...
You can either:
Use the command-line FULLD#.BAT script that corresponds to your Delphi version.
Open the individual DPK files in the IDE and compile them, in the following order:
IndySystemX0.dpk (in Lib\System)
IndyCoreX0.dpk (in Lib\Core)
IndyProtocolsX0.dpk (in Lib\Protocols)
dclIndyCoreX0.dpk (in Lib\Core)
dclIndyProtocolsX0.dpk (in Lib\Protocols)
...
Refer to the installation notes for full instructions.
Indy is already installed in Rio during the product installation. It's used in parts of the RTL. It's already installed in all versions of Delphi.
If you open a new VCL or FMX application, click on a form to activate the designer, and go to the component palette, and enter TId in the search box, you can find the Indy related component pages in the palette.
I am trying to install the latest Unicode version of TSynEdit in the Delphi 10 Seattle IDE. It builds OK but when installing I get the error:
Access violation at address 27158679 in module 'bds.exe'. Read
of address 00000010
It installs OK on previous versions up to XE8.
I tried putting showmessages() at the start of the register procedure but AV error still occurs before the registration.
Has anyone found a work around for this ?
The GetIt Package Manager contains the latest version of TSynEdit.
You can reach GetIt from the tools menu in the IDE.
It downloads/compiles/installs without errors on my D10Seattle machine.
At the moment, SourceForge files are pretty old. But you can download SynEdit components from github. It has project files for newer Delphi versions. I just built and installed it for 10.2 Tokyo.
So I have Delphi XE (no number) and I have a project that was built on another machine (using JVCL components). Now, my machine is a Windows 8.1 (64 bits), and the previous machine was Windows XP (32 bits).
Of course I want to be able to continue developing the app, but for that I need the JCL/JVCL to be installed here too.
Now comes my problem. When I run the installer (bat) of JCL, it starts ok, but it does not show any options, so when I click the Install button nothing happens, and I get a message saying the installation finished. But of course nothing is installed.
This is how the installer looks on my x64 machine:
What can I do to install this JCL on a win64 machine? I am very sure that this is the problem: the OS. Because on 32bit OS (Windows XP) I have no problem installing it.
I looked it up, but could not find a straightforward solution. There might be a problem with some registry where the installer looks for the location of Delphi ?!?! but I have no idea how to fix it.
I need to install the JVCL, but it wont install unless I have JCL installed first... and the JCL does not install
Please help me.
Thank you
I am trying to install JVCL 3.47 on a Delphi XE3 instance but I failed twice; I know that first I must install JCL; When I run Install.bat located in the jcl folder I get this error: "Windows cannot find '..\bin\JediInstaller.exe' ...;
I looked into bin folder but indeed JediInstaller.exe is not there; So I have opened the project JediInstaller located in "..\JVCL347CompleteJCL241-Build4571\jcl\jcl\install" and compiled it and then I started JediInstaller and installed JCL; Afer I tried to install JVCL again with opening the installer project and compiling it but again it returned an error that JCL is not installed and I don't know way because I have it installed;
When I installed JVCL 3.45 on Delphi Xe2, Win 7 it worked by opening install.bat, but now on Win8 , Delphi XE3 it doesn't work... Please somebody advise me how to install properly JVCL (I need to modify a project built with XE2 and Jvcl by the day after tomorrow).
Thanks in advance.
After having installed XE2 I felt it would be a good idea to update Jedi JCL/JVCL
However, the installer does not recognize/show Delphi 2007 as an option any longer, only Delphi 2010 and XE2
Any way to fix that? I am guess it uses registry somehow?
I can reproduce the problem with the file you linked. JCL installer 2.31 is not detecting my Delphi 2007 IDE. I have XE, XE2, 7, and 2007 and it will not recognize 2007 when I unzip and run the installer.
The Solution on my system was simple: Run clean.bat, and try the JCL install again.
Your suggestion of wiping the folder out and replacing it with a clean fresh copy, combined with running clean, and with deleting all existing JCL/JVCL bpls from your BPL folders, might be required too.
