FreePascalArchivePackage

[eden159]

Hi,

I downloaded the package FreePascalArchivePackage, but when I tried to use it it gives an error. I found that the problem is because one of it's units is called "types" and there Lazarus has an unit that's also called "types" so when I try to compile the program the compiler uses Lazarus' "type", not the one from the package. I fixed that by changing the name of the unit (and going through all the files that include it).

There was another problem: in the file abfcifdi.pas there were assignments @FDICreateProc := GetProcAddress(CabDllHandle, 'FDICreate'); which gave me an error. I put {$mode delphi} for compatability in the begining of the file.

Now everything compiles and works fine.

You can download the fixed version from: http://suncreation.org/ocr/fparchive.zip

P.S. Can you administrators please check this fixed version and if it's ok upload it to sourceforge so that no one would download a broken package and then wonder why it's not working.

I am interested in uploading it. Did you raise the version (or build) number, to make a clear distinction between this and the previous version?

I had forgoten to raise the number but I did it 5 min ago and uploaded the zip file again (download the arhive from the link from the first post).

Hi, not sure, who's taking care of this, but there is a memory leak in fpArchve v. 3.05:

Code: [Select]

function DoExtractStored(Archive : TAbZipArchive; Item : TAbZipItem; OutStream : TStream; TheCRC : LongInt) : LongInt;
line 1190 - DecryptStream does not seem to be destroyed in all cases.

to test this try to unzip the password protected zip file

...and I also fixed few things to make this package compile under OSX

So I would like to pass it to somebody who takes care of this code to update the repo.
