how compile SynEdit in Delphi 7?


I tried to load and use 'SynEdit_D7.dpk' and 'SynEdit_R7.dpk' in Delphi 7 to install but following error raised:

[Fatal Error] SynEditHighlighter.pas(57): File not found: 'SynEditHighlighterOptions.dcu'

I did:

  1. downloaded SynEdit-2_0_8.zip
  2. Extracted somewhere and opened Delphi 7.
  3. Loaded SynEdit_D7.dpk.
  4. Clicked on install.
  5. Received error.

Solution

  • I should add source files path to Delphi library path (Tools | Environment options) and then build without problems! I built SynEdit_D7.dpk without SynEdit_R7.dpk.

    Problem Solved.
