I load a project and it can't find TSocketConnection or TSharedConnection. It doesn't have Midas? Then I start Delphi 7 and it can't load InetXCustom because it contains unit Zlib which is contained in RTL100 and RTL70? Why is Delphi 7 even aware of RTL100? How to fix this? Mark Horrocks Back to top Rob Uttley Guest Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2007 11:01 am    Post subject: Re: delphi 7 and 2007 Mark - I think this is a paths issue. I had a similar problem with D7 complaining about rtl100.bpl and ZLib straight after I'd installed D2007. I edited the PC's PATH environment variable so that it just contains the delphi folders for the version I'm going to use at the time - either D7 or D2007. I don't know if there's a better way but it made the problem go away and I didn't really have time to investigate further. The D2007 installer puts it's own paths right at the front of your existing path variable, which might be part of the problem. Either way, if you just need to get going with things, editing the path should see you able to use one or the other without interference. If you get a better (or even proper) solution, please let me know!

Why is Delphi 7 looking for rtl100.dll? I can't find anything in the registry. The package requires rtl.dcp. I have recompiled this package but no go. The error has existed since I tried to install the package into Delphi 2007. Now both Delphi 2007 and Delphi 7 report this error. I have uninstalled Delphi 2007 and removed the registry entries but no go. Both rtl100dll and rtl70.dll exist in system32. I thought D7 should co exist with D2007?

The standard way of editing your path, by the way, is via the 'properties' option on the right-click menu of 'My Computer' (there are other ways of getting to that dialog, but I'm sure you know the one I mean - it's the one that shows the processor type, windows version and real memory installed, etc). Under XP and 2000, this dialog has an 'advanced' tab - and on there is a button marked 'environment variables'. In the dialog that this pops up you can set the PATH variable. I believe that if you change this, the path for any programs you subsequently launch (including command/dos prompts) will reflect the new value. Programs already launched (including command/dos prompts) will have the PATH setting that was in effect when they were launched. NB - this is just my understanding, not documented fact. :-) Anyway, enough of my waffle, this might all be rubbish. I'll have a play with my dual-Delphi system tonight and see if I can make it play nicely. Thanks for reporting what you did with Delphi so far - my next step would be to try and configure the LIBS paths to ensure no overlap between the 2 versions. I'll let you know if I learn anything. Cheers Rob Quote: Thanks Rob, Google is my friend. I altered HKEY_Current_User/Environment PATH variable from thye BDS BPL output folder to C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Projects\Bpl. This fixed the problem as far as Delphi 7 is concerned but doesn't fix the problem for Delphi 2007 I guess. Since the PATH environment would have suited Delphi 2007 after I installed it, then how can I solve the problem of the error ZLib being found in both rtl100.bpl and rtl70.bpl? The obvious is that Delphi 7 should look only for rtl70 and Delphi 2007 should look only to rtl100. In Delphi 2007 I did set the project directionals for the package project (all of them) to the folder where the package was located but it still complained about Zlib. The package is InetXCustom found in Delphi7/demos/midas/internet express/inetxcustom.

In the dialog that this pops up you can set the PATH variable. Interesting, under the environment variables dialog box there are 2 windows, one labeled user variables for Mark Horrocks. This path is C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Projects\Bpl, the path I set in the registry. The next box has a path which shows C:\Program Files\CodeGear\RAD Studio\5.0\bin;C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\RAD Studio\5.0\Bpl;C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\;C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Bin;C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi7\Projects\Bpl\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Borland\CaliberRM SDK 2005 R2\lib;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\AGL I have now edited the Path Variable for All users to place the Delphi 7 paths for bin and lib first and this fixes Delphi 7. Delphi 2007 starts fine as well. So all looks well. Thanks for the info.
