Hi,

I have downloaded the trial edition of ODAC 8.1.4 for Lazarus.

I try to open the 'dclodac10.lpk' file and install the package, but I get the following error message in the compiler window:

Recompiling CRAccess, checksum changed for System
CRAccess.pas(14,31) Fatal: Can't find unit CRAccess used by dac10


I am using Lazarus 0.9.30 2011-03-08, FPC version 2.4.2 - do I need a newer release of Lazarus for ODAC to work ?

Kind regards

Hello,

The trial version of ODAC was compiled with Lazarus 0.9.30.2 and FPC 2.4.4. Therefore you should update your Lazarus and FPC to the mentioned versions.

Aha. That helped tremendously! Thank you .

I was fooled by the sourceforge page prominently telling me that 0.9.30 is the latest version (which I guess is true, and 0.9.30.2 is a release candidate, but probably stable enough).

Kind regards

Oops. When I try the following:

OraSession1.Options.Direct := true;
OraSession1.UserName := 'username';
OraSession1.Password := '';
OraSession1.Server := 'ora-test:1521:test';

OraSession1.Connect;

I get a "Feature not supported". So that means that the Direct connection is not available in the Trial version ? That was my main reason for trying ODAC.

Kind regards

Hello,

Lazarus 0.9.30.2 is the final version, the earlier release candidates are Lazarus 0.9.30.2RC1 and Lazarus 0.9.30.2RC2.
Presently, Direct Mode is not supported in Lazarus, this functionality is available only for Delphi and C++Builder.
