I looked in the Indy repository and found that this has been modified in a later tagged version of he file without any modification to the Indy version, which is still the same. I edited in that modification and then the above error disappeared. Just a couple of more questions: 1) Why was Lazarus trying to re-compile indylaz when it is already installed and built? Makes no sense to me.... Of course after I edited the file it will need a recompile, but why before? 2) Why does my project not find the Indy units when compiling? If I right-click these in Lazarus and select "Find declaration of" it immediately opens the specified file. But while compiling I get unit not found on some. I have "solved" this by adding the three source directories Core, Protocols and System to the Project/Options/CompilerOptions/Paths/OtherUnitFiles Now the project compiles but it always gives this warning: Warning: other unit files search path (aka unit path) of "SvnMailer" contains "D:\Engineering\Projects\CMPFPC\Indy10.6.2\System", which belongs to package "indylaz" But if I include indylaz in the uses clauses it errors out like this instead: SvnMailer.lpr(23,4) Fatal: Cannot find indylaz used by SvnMailer, incompatible ppu=D:\Engineering\Projects\CMPFPC\Indy10.6.2\lib\i386-win32\indylaz.ppu, package indylaz Finally, if I remove indylaz as a Required Package for the project, then it compiles without errors but with a whole lot of warnings and hints. The warnings deal with string conversions within Indy. Here is one such, there are a lot more.: IdSSLOpenSSL.pas(2140,18) Warning: Implicit string type conversion with potential data loss from "UnicodeString" to "AnsiString" What is going on here, really..? 3) And what should I do when creating a "Program" application in Lazarus to make it possible to use the units from indylaz without fussing with the paths to the Indy sources? The program should be possible to build also on Linux. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
