Title: I need to install IBX components from MWA, but do I need to uninstall ....
Post by: RedOctober on January 11, 2018, 09:21:34 pm: the existing FBAdmin, TIBConnection, TSQLQuery TSQLTransaction components from my Lazarus IDE?
I'm on Lazarus 1.8 and FPC 3.0.4. It looks like it comes with several of the same-named components that are already in the
"ibx4lazarus2.0.1" package.

I don't want to mess up my Lazarus and my project. If I need to uninstall the TIBConnection and TSQL* components that I already have, how do I do that?

What? No, they all have different names.

Anyway, to uninstall the package from the IDE (which, again, you needn't do in this case), in main menu choose Package, then Install/Uninstall Packages... then, in the left side list, find SQLdbLaz and click the button Uninstall selection. Save and after rebuilding the IDE, the package will no longer be installed.
