Indy components for Lazarus

[Josef Koller]

Hello,

I would like to install the indy package (indy4lazarus-20040117) but I get a lot of erros by compiling like this:

C:\download\Lazarus\indy\source\IdWinsock2.pas(11,1) Warning: Comment level 2 found
C:\download\Lazarus\indy\source\IdWinsock2.pas(12,1) Warning: Comment level 3 found

C:\download\Lazarus\indy\source\IdWinsock2.pas(14,1) Warning: Comment level 5 found
...

C:\download\Lazarus\indy\source\IdWinsock2.pas(4533) Fatal: Unexpected end of file

What's wrong? Can anybody help me?

Best regards

Josef

Probably the code contains something like this:

{ coment coment coment }
{
{
{ coment coment coment }

Notice that there are 4 { 's and only 2 } 's. Free Pascal doesn´t like this. Every { must be enclosed with a }.

I´m not sure, but perhaps if you specify compatibility mode to Delphi {$MODE Delphi} it will ignore this.

If not, you need to manually correct the comments. In many cases you may use // comments to substitute a single line starting with {

Hello,

Thanks for help. but now I have an other problem:

The compiler stops in line 3967.
Here is a function like this:

function WS2Call( AStubEntryIndex : DWORD ) : Pointer; forward;

procedure WS2Stub_WSACleanup;                   asm  mov eax,  0; call
WS2Call; jmp eax; end;
procedure WS2Stub_accept;                          asm  mov eax,  1; call WS2Call; jmp eax; end;
.....

I read in a posting in sourceforge that I have to give begin end end -Comands to this funtction. But where?

I tested the following:

function WS2Call( AStubEntryIndex : DWORD ) : Pointer; forward;

procedure WS2Stub_WSACleanup;
begin                
asm  mov eax,  0; call WS2Call; jmp eax; end;
end;
procedure WS2Stub_accept;
begin                        
asm  mov eax,  1; call WS2Call; jmp eax; end;
end;

etc.

But than I get an forward-error in the function

function WS2Call( AStubEntryIndex : DWORD ) : Pointer;
begin
  with WS2StubTable[AStubEntryIndex] do
  begin
    if hWS2Dll = 0 then
....

What is the correct declaration to get this Indy-components?

Many thanks and best regards

That indy package is pretty old. IIRC it is part of FPC (or will become part of it)
Better ask the ML, since afair Marco van Voort was working on it.

Hello,

no I don't think so. It's from sourceforge yesterday and as a test from this day. (indy4lazarus-20040117)

The same result:

The compiler stops bay this funktion and I don't know where I have to give the begin and end commands.

Best regards

So, it is from januari 2004, that is pretty old in my terms, because I know Marco had a working version last September.
