I surely want to give your new component a try, but I do not see how I can help - and how the new component can help me - at this time, since you stated that filtering is not yet implement (and filtering is what I mostly need).
It was working, just forgot to refresh the dataset after activating the filter.

@wp,

Unfortunately, I have not been able to compile the visual demo ("project2") included with your new FPSpreadsheetDataset component. I got the errors below:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. fpsdataset.pas(1116,36) Error: identifier idents no member "CodePage"
  2. fpsdataset.pas(1118,27) Error: identifier idents no member "AsUTF8String"

I have not tried the other demo ("project1").

Hope you can help me to overcome these problems so that I can proceed with the tests of your component (as soon as I successfully do that, I intend to test the component with my own data).

With best wishes,

I am developing this with the current FPC release version 3.2.2 and did not yet try to adapt the code to older versions. Your FPC 3.0.4 is too old for the current fpsdataset code. But I added a version check to the code, and now you will be able to use your FPC as well.

@wp,

Hi. I still got a few compilation errors when trying the latest version:

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. fpsdataset.pas(335,7) Error: Identifier not found "ftByte"
  2. fpsdataset.pas(335,13) Error: Constant Expression expected
  3. fpsdataset.pas(1088,13) Error: Identifier not found "ftByte"
  4. fpsdataset.pas(1088,19) Error: Constant Expression expected
  5. fpsdataset.pas(1426,9) Error: Identifier not found "ftByte"
  6. fpsdataset.pas(1426,15) Error: Constant Expression expected

However, this time I got the demo application compiled by commenting out the problematic lines. It worked quite well and the filter property behaved just as expected (I have even successfully tried some combination of conditions with "and" and "or").

If you can fix the problem above, I will proceed by testing with my own data.

@wp,

I just downloaded and tested the latest release of the component.  I have been able to compile the visual demo without any errors (just a warning about an unused variable).

I will now proceed to integrate the component in my sample application an will post the results here ASAP.

Thank you!

Hi, @wp!

As promised, here is my sample application which successfully employs your FPSDataset component to filter a table (see the screenshots).

The application is just a demo and has many glitches but its purpose is to serve as a testbed for the component filtering capabilities.

I presume that in due time you will make available an 'official release' of the component in an installable  package.

Thank you very much!

Now that the dataset descendant for worksheets (TsWorksheetDataset) has reached some kind of stability I integrated the code in the fpspreadsheet distribution on CCR (https://sourceforge.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn/HEAD/tree/components/fpspreadsheet/). Further development will occur here, the above-mentioned version on my github will be removed sooner or later. A release for OPM is planned, as well as a wiki tutorial.
