IBDAC 2.00 beta, Delphi 5, startup error and AV's in IDE

Post by Merlin » Thu 01 Mar 2007 06:13

Hi. I've installed the 2.00 beta for IBDAC in my Delphi 5 Enterprise as a trial. I'm very impressed with your components! However, when I start Delphi, I now receive this error:

"Dataset Manager: Unable to open registry key HKCU\Software\CoreLab, DataSetManager\Delphi\5.0"

When I say "OK", I am able to continue on and start working in the IDE. However, after working for a short time i start receiving Access Violation errors from the Delphi IDE, and I have to exit Delphi and restart. I was not experiencing this before I installed your components, and this is the only recent change I've made to my IDE setup.

When I look into the registry, the registry directory listed in the error message does exist, with two values:ConfigFilePath and ShowOnStart.

Can you give me a way to fix this? Should I uninstall and go back to the 1.15 version?

Thanks,

Alex

We have fixed the problem with wrong registry key opening.

As for AV we need a more detailed description of this problem.
Please answer some questions to clear the reason of the problem:
1. What third party components do you have installed for your IDE?

2. What steps have you performed before you started getting Access Violation errors?
If possible, please send us a complete small sample to demonstrate the problem.

3. Send us the DataSetManager log file (DataSetManagerError.log).
This file is located in the {$Delphi}\Bin\ directory.

Send your message to IBDAC support address. You can obtain it from Support.html file in th IBDAC installation directory.

As a temporary work around, you can disable or remove the "Core Lab DataSet Manger" package from "Design packages" in your IDE Component\Install Packages menu.

There is no DataSetManagerError.log file.

The Access Violations seem to be random after a series of program edits/compiles/debugging sessions. They may also be related to the IBDacDemo project, which is open in my project group.

I have numerous 3rd party components loaded.

For now, since I'm not yet using the data set manager, I will disable the design package and see what happens. I may not have time to do any more troubleshooting on this for a few days.

When do you plan to release a new version of the beta?
