Installation of TeeChart Standard VCL (XE3 Starter, Win8)

Hello Support Team!

Unfortunately, the installation of the TeeChart Standard VCL component does not work on my system (Delphi XE3 Starter, Windows 8 Pro).

A few days ago, I've already tried to install it (TeeChartStandard2012RADXE3.exe) - unsuccessfully. It said something like the last step of the installation did not work and I should manually start some installation-exe (which didn't work either - with the same error message). Unfortunately I didn't save screenshots of the error messages...

Today, I've tried it again (after having de-installed TeeChart) and now the installation procedure stops immediately after having entered the licence-nr/password with the following message:

---------------------------
Could not load the DLL library
C:\Users\Robert\AppData\Local\Temp\GLF27DE.tmp.
Die angegebene Prozedur wurde nicht gefunden. (MY TRANSLATION: The specified Procedure could not be found)
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

Any help would be highly appreciated! :-)

Best regards
Robert

Hi Robert,

We've just identified a problem with the PreRelease v2012.07 for XE3
http://www.teechart.net/support/viewtop ... 798#p59798

We're working on it.

Hi!

With the new installer (Nov 6), there are no more error messages, but after the installation I still can't find the TeeChart component in my Delphi Tool Palette. Are there any more steps necessary in the installation?

Thanks for your help!

Cheers
Robert

Hi Robert,

Have you checked the TeeChart Pro components are listed and selected in the IDE packages list? Please, make sure the Standard packages are unselected before checking the Pro.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Both entries "TeeChart Standard 2012 Components" and "TeeChart Standard 2012 FMX Components" components were unchecked in the list (as I only have Delphi Starter and have bought only TeeChart Standard, there aren't and Pro- or Standard-Components that have to be unchecked, are they?).

Checking "TeeChart Standard 2012 FMX Components" works, but when I click on "TeeChart Standard 2012 Components", error messages appear which say that

1.)
---------------------------
Delphi XE3: bds.exe - Systemfehler
---------------------------
Das Programm kann nicht gestartet werden, da bdertl170.bpl auf dem Computer fehlt. Installieren Sie das Programm erneut, um das Problem zu beheben.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
(MY TRANSLATION: System error. Programm could not be started, as bdertl170.bpl is missing on the computer)

2.)

And again, there are no Chart-Components in my Tools palette... :-(

Hi,

Right, the Starter edition doesn't come with any TeeChart version, so the problem shouldn't be a conflict between the version you are trying to install and a bundled version.
On the other hand, the Started edition doesn't come with support for bde and that's why the regular TeeChart packages enter in conflict. However, the TeeChart installation also includes a package without bde support for this case.
Please, remove the TeeChart packages manually in the IDE packages list. Then, add the "DclFMXTeeStd917.bpl" and "DclTeeStd917.bpl" packages from the "\Delphi17.win32\Bin" folder in your TeeChart installation.

I've got another problem now (actually, I'm not sure if it is more or less the same problem, therefore here in the same forum thread)...

Compiling a new, "empty" project with just a bare TChart component on it works fine, but I just got several compiler error messages when I tried to compile my old project that has quite a few TCharts on it:
[dcc32 Fehler] ergebnisse.pas(54): E2003 Undeklarierter Bezeichner: 'TChart' // undeclared identifier
[dcc32 Fehler] ergebnisse.pas(56): E2003 Undeklarierter Bezeichner: 'TPieSeries'
[dcc32 Fehler] ergebnisse.pas(57): E2007 Konstante oder Typenbezeichner erwartet // constant or type identifier expected
[dcc32 Fehler] ergebnisse.pas(58): E2007 Konstante oder Typenbezeichner erwartet
[dcc32 Fehler] ergebnisse.pas(60): E2007 Konstante oder Typenbezeichner erwartet
...
The "problematic" code is just...

Code: Select all

50 - type
51 -   TFormErgebnisse = class(TForm)
52 -     PageControl1: TPageControl;
53 -     TabSheet1: TTabSheet;
54 -     Diagramm: TChart;
55 -     ButtonDiagramme: TButton;
56 -     Series1: TPieSeries;
57 -     Diagramm2: TChart;
58 -     Series2: TPieSeries;
59 -     TabSheet5: TTabSheet;
...
(of course, the respective components are (still) on the form - with Delphi 2009, the code had compiled successfully)

I hope you can help me!

Cheers
Robert

Hi Robert,

The problem is this is an old project from a Delphi version prior to XE2. From XE2 you have to add the VCLTee or FMXTee prefixes to TeeChart units in the uses section, for example: VCLTee.UnitName or FMXTee.UnitName. It will depend if its a VCL project or a Firemonkey Project.
