Hello,

I am trying to use my (registered) PostgreSQLDirect.NET 2.55 (which I already used for Delphi 2005) for the new RAD Studio 2007.

I get an error when trying to create a pgsqlConnection object, saying "Constructing instance of 'PgSqlConnection' containing abstract method DbConnection.BeginDbTransaction". This works fine in Delphi 2005. Is the new RAD Studio 2007 supported yet ? Is there a workaround ?

Kind regards,

Alexander Priem.

Hello,

Has someone looked into this yet ?

We are investigating this problem.
You will be notified on results as soon as possible.

We did not find any problems in PostgreSQLDirect .NET 3.25 run time. The design time problems are being fixed now.

Will this also be fixed for version 2.55? I am using a registered version of 2.55.

The 2.x version is not compatible with Delphi 2007. You have to upgrade to the 3.x version to be able to use this IDE.

Right now we have a Standard Site License. If I want to upgrade this to version 3, that will cost us $219, right ?

Can you give me an estimate when the new version that solves my problem will be available for download ?

We have performed thorough investigation and found that it is impossible to use design time features in RAD Studio 2007.

Well, actually I don't even use the design-time (visual) components. I just include the DLL into my project and all the queries I run are done through code, I dont use any of the Visual PostgreSQLDirect.NET components.

Will that work in RAD Studio 2007 and will you continue to support it?

And the question I asked in my former post, the costs to upgrade to the 3.25 Standard Site license is $ 219, right ?

Thanks for your time with this

Hello,

I downloaded the 3.25 version from your site and included it into my ASP.NET 2.0 project using RAD Studio 2007 Architect.

On the following line :

adoConn := PgsqlConnection.Create;

I (still) get the following two errors :

[DCC Error] CICT_PGSQL.pas(1202): E1020 Constructing instance of 'PgSqlConnection' containing abstract method 'DbConnection.BeginDbTransaction'

[DCC Error] CICT_PGSQL.pas(1202): E1020 Constructing instance of 'PgSqlConnection' containing abstract method 'DbConnection.CreateDbCommand'



This is the same error I got using version 2.55, but it appears this still happens with 3.25. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong and how I can get it working in RAD Studio 2007?

The same line of code works perfectly using ASP.NET 1.1 and Delphi 2005.

We have fixed this problem for you.
Look forward to the next build.

Thanks a lot for your great support on this

I can't wait to download and test it.

The new build will be available soon.

To continue your development without the build you can use a factory to create a connection:
connection := PgSqlConnection(PgSqlDirectFactory.Instance.CreateConnection());
