Visual Planit from Delphi to Lazarus.. HELP

[freddynerk]

Hi,
Has anyone done a successful port of Turbopowers Visual Planit VCL's to lazarus.
I am in need of a Day/Week/Month planner for an application.

It is on Sourceforge
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tvplanit/

It's already been done and it works!

Thanks for that.
I have looked everywhere to find it.
Not right under my nose.
Thanks again.

Have installed Planit.
I have also installed it on my Delphi 7.
The demo works but I cannot figure out how to set one up from scratch.
I would like to have the database linked to my Sqllite3 or maybe even a text file.
All the documentation seems to be a bit vague.
I have tried their test program but it will not create a database from scratch.
Has anyone had any success with this.
The program needs to be cross-platform between PC and MAc

I used the svn with my Mac. Then transferred the Folder to my PC.
The Delphi version does have some samples, however.

What help/demo do you need? It took a lot of time to get it to work but once you know how to its easy. So if you tell me where to help, I can send a sample application or at least a good explanation.

Maybe you can write something for the Wiki?

Just in case someone stumbles into this thread and wonders what I left out: You can connect TVPlanit to any database when you drop a TvpFlexDataStorage component on a form. You have to assign datasources to the "datasources" property of that component and then the context menu of that VPFlexDatastorage has a menu "map database fields" where you can map the fields of tvPlanit to your database.

Very interesting. Are you sure you were able to use the TVpFlexDataStore component in Lazarus? Because in Lazarus it's not part of the package

That's not quite true. I just verified my Visual Planit components in my Lazarus installation and VpFlexDataStore is part of the package.

Wow 
Can you tell me where you downloaded this version? I just finished making all the component icons. That's probably also already done.
Your answer is much appreciated

PS: I downloaded it through
svn co https://lazarus-ccr.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lazarus-ccr/components/tvplanit

I got mine a while ago from the CodeTyphon project http://www.pilotlogic.com/sitejoom/index.php/codetyphon. I don't use CodeTyphon itself, I just take some of their repackaged Lazarus components like the Vampyre Imaging library and Visual Planit and add it to my standard Lazarus installation. You'll find the Visual Planit component in a directory called pl_VisualPlanit.

They apparently have made their own implementation.
Why do you not use the Lazarus implementation that comes with CodeTyphon? I think it's quite good, as far as I have seen it until now.
