I'm using Delphi XE and I really need this component. I searched the net and I unfortunately didn't find it. Can anyone give me a link to it?
maxwell this is the site of synedit (and UniSynedit). if you want the more recent version you must check the svn repository , because the SynEdit-2_0_3.zip file listed in the site is not updated.

When I use the installer from the author's website, I end up with a program that seems to have no support for autohotkey editing, no syntax hiliting, (not even a language to deal with .ahk files), no ahk specific tools in the toolbar, debuger support, help file, and so on. In fact, the only thing I see is a changed 'About...' in the Help menu.
Is there some setup I'm missing, or is the current version broken?
This is an old question but after a longer period there has been an update.
The latest version can be found here.
I'm trying to install DWScript in XE2 and I seem to be struggling. I can't find any up to date installation instructions, and the older instructions I did find no longer seems applicable.
I've tried both head from the svn repository, and also one of the previous releases and haven't had much luck with either.
I've added the source directory to my library path.
When I opened dwsLib originally I had a TdwsUnit not found message, although it appears to compile. Both dwsLibDesignOnly and dwsLibRuntime.dpk have an error about dwsCodeGen which is missing, and it appears there is a whole JSCodeGen directory in Libraries which doesn't exist but should.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Richard
You can try revision r1462.
After that revision project owner decide to close source for JavaScript CodeGen and contunue development only for MobileStudio product.
The CodeGen is no longer maintained in the SVN, and the dpks were a bit out of date (updated now). You can just remove the units/classes it doesn't find from the .dpk
For further details on the CodeGen see http://delphitools.info/2012/05/18/from-op4js-to-smart-mobile-studio/
The last open-source version can be found in r1462 of the SVN.
We register the capabilities of Delphi applications using TLB files. However, from reading MSDN documentation, "Installation package authors are strongly advised against using the TypeLib table. Instead, they should register type libraries by using the Registry table". Does anyone have any advice on how to do this in a 'Delphi' way for Windows 7?
It means you would need to figure out what registry entries to add to register the tlb. This explains what needs to be done. You could also use a tool like REGCAP.EXE which comes with Visual and generates a .reg file. If you use WiX to build your msi you could use tools like tallow and heat to let them generate the wix files for you.
I'm going to answer my own question! This is a duplicate of this question, which seems to have the answer I needed (just in a different language that I would normally use).
Can someone please give me a step by step on how to build an installation disk for my Delphi 2010 application?
I have tried both InstallAware Express Edition which comes with Delphi 2010 but keeps on giving me error message for it continue to look for *120.bpl instead of *140.bpl
I have also tried InnoSetup with ISTool but fail to work, which I believe I am not setting it up properly.... (e.g. failed to include all required packages)
My Apps is a simple database enquiry which I used dbExpress to connect to my ms-sql database.
I have also tried switching the flag in Delphi 2010 for "Built with Packages", no luck also...
Please help....
I am leaning toward using InnoSetup instead, but can someone tell me what is the typical set up is like... much appreciated.
Cheers.
The best place for support on an innosetup script, is the innosetup newsgroups. If you ask your question there, they would want to know more detail about what you are trying to do. Your app is going to set up some database stuff, so a lot more detail is required if you want an answer.
Innosetup is definitely is the easiest and fastest route to a setup.exe, which when placed on a CD, would make an "install CD". (Who uses CDs anymore anyways?)
In Thunderbird/OutlookExpress/WindowsMail, add an nntp server called news.jrsoftware.org,
and subscribe to the newsgroup "Jrsoftware.innosetup.code" and "jrsoftware.innosetup", and ask your question. Post your script. Show your error messages. Explain your database configuration strings, and how you are installing any dbExpress runtime components, if any apply to your application.
dbexpress in Delphi 2010 don't need nothing to be registered when deployed.
You simply need to create a folder with:
your executable.
all the required packages.
libmysql.dll
dbxmys.dll
midas.dll (if you are not using midaslib in your uses clause)
This is a easy work for an installer.
We've used Wise Installation for many years. Very easy to build install scripts. Works great.
I just installed this:
http://www.wholetomato.com/products/sourcelinks/FogBugzBundle.asp
but I don;t seem to be getting any of the functionality in my msdev. I am using 2008 professional.
Anyone have any experience with this tool? it does not seem to work for me at all. I never get the login dialog.
After about a week the Whole Tomato team gave me a solution that worked perfectly. Thanks for the support Mark, etc.
the answer is below
After doing some research, I came
across this page:
http://www.mztools.com/articles/2007/MZ2007009.aspx
that lists several possibilities why
it might not be showing up in the
add-in manager. One of them is:
"There is a reported problem that
happens when MSXML 6.0 is not
installed correctly. In this case the
Add-In Manager doesn't show any
XML-based add-in (using an .AddIn file
for registration). It shows only
registry-based add-ins. So, if the
Add-In Manager is empty when it should
show several installed add-ins (not
only yours), try reinstalling MSXML
6.0."
You might try reinstalling XSXML 6.0,
and see if that helps. Download link
is here:

I'd certainly try that before
reinstalling VS2008.
