It is not supposed to.  Indy 9 did not have any directory hierarchy like
Indy 10 does.

That is already a known issue.  Download the 9.0.50 development snapshot
instead.  Which you should do anyway since 9.0.18 is old.

Thanks Paul.

"Information", as a heading, didn't quite do it for me as being a download source!!

Anyway, thanks to you, I've downloaded "Indy9.zip" from the following link:

http://indy.fulgan.com/ZIP/

Now, for the hard part.

Thanks,

Rod.

Hi Paul.

Back again.

Doesn't work.

Can't find "indy60.lib" and it appears it can't compile it.

Running "FullC6.bat" did something the first time and in builder the components were present.
However, builder wanted to know where "indy60.lib" might be found. I checked the Hard-drive. It's
not present.

I re-ran "FullC6.bat" and got, amongst other errors, the following:

"deflate.obj" not found.
"inflate.obj" not found.
"inftrees.obj" not found.
etc etc 
......
"IdCompressionIntervept" ----- "unsatisfied forward or external declaration inflatereset"
etc etc --- all "inflate" something or other.


Can you or anyone tell me what's going on?

If not, how does one restore the "Indy" that came with BCB6 Enterprise? I have saved all files
mentioned as must be removed. I guess I just copy them back to where I moved them from. Is that all
that's required?

Remy, why can't the Indy stuff just come already compiled for BCB6? Most other components do.

Thanks anyway,

Regards,

Rod.

The "Current Development Snapshot" on that same page is 9.0.50.

Did you FULLY remove everything Indy-related before installing the new
version?

Works fine for me.  When running the .bat file, dod you see the message
"Creating Indy60.LIB file, please wait..."?  Did you copy IndyWin32.rsp from
the 9.0.17 download?  When I run the .bat file, Indy60.lib is placed into
the \C6 folder that the .bat file created.

> I re-ran "FullC6.bat" and got, amongst other errors, the following:

Did you forget to copy the .obj files onto your machine?  They need to be in
the same folder as the rest of the Indy source code.

> Can you or anyone tell me what's going on?

It would seem that you don't have all of the necessary files on your
machine.

> Remy, why can't the Indy stuff just come already compiled for BCB6?

Because that is not the way most components are distributed.  For starters,
packages are version-specific, so distributing precompiled binaries would
require compiling Indy for every compiler version, and every service pack
version, that is available for every IDE that Indy supports.  Do you know
how hard that is for component vendors to do?  It is a lot easier to just
distribute the source code and let the users compile the packages manually
for their specific IDE setups.  Most component vendors do it that way.

Now granted, Indy's packages are not set up like usual packages, which is
why the .bat files are used to compile them, instead of compiling the
packages directly in the IDE.  But the .bat files are mature and
well-tested, and are just as easy to use (when used properly) as opening
packages files in the IDE and clicking the "Compile" button.

> Most other components do.

Some do, yes, but the majority do not.

Try the knowledge base and follow the "How do I install Indy into Borland 
C++ Builder?" (exactly)
