Installer probably does not copy all required files

[Former user]

What exactly is done in the last installation process? I suppose something is missing here, since compiling fails with vcl.forms missing.

The CrossVCL\Source\18.0 folder looks like this:

de fr ja behavior.res bindctrls.res Buttons.res CategoryButtons.res controls.res copyfile.res copyfiles.res dbctrls.res dbgrids.res dclshlctrls.res deletefile.res DSAzureReg.res emptyrecycle.res extdlgs.res filectrl.res findcomputer.res findfile.res findfolder.res FireDAC.Dcl.Splash.res FireDAC.VCLUI.PanelTreeButton.res FMX.Controls.Win.res FMX.Filter.res FMX.MobilePreview.res FMXTee.Chart.ListBox.Style.res IdAboutVCL.res keyboardLayouts.res midas.res mplayer.res mxconsts.res outline.res recyclefile.res ScreenTips.res spin.res tabs.res Vcl.DBActns.pas Vcl.DBCGrids.pas Vcl.DBClientActns.pas Vcl.DBCtrls.pas Vcl.DBGrids.pas Vcl.DBLogDlg.dfm Vcl.DBLogDlg.pas Vcl.DBLookup.pas Vcl.DBOleCtl.pas Vcl.DBPWDlg.dfm Vcl.DBPWDlg.pas Vcl.IMouse.res Vcl.recerror.dfm Vcl.recerror.pas Vcl.VDBConsts.pas vclshlctrls.res WindowsXP.res WinXCalendars.res WinXCtrls.res

What RAD Studio version and Edition do you have ?

[Christian Hackbart]

I use the german version of Embarcadero® Delphi 10.1 Berlin Version 24.0.25048.9432.

[Eugene Kryukov]

And what edition ?

[Ronald Klitsche]

Same here. It's a Delphi Berlin 10.1 incl. Up2, Pro Version. German.

[Christian Hackbart]

Delphi 10 Seattle Professional Named User inclusive Update 2

[Brian Hamilton]

Hi, I have the same issue by the looks Berlin , latest update [dccosx Fatal Error] Project61.dpr(5): F2613 Unit 'Vcl.Forms' not found.

[Eugene Kryukov]

Please check the folder - C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\18.0\source\vcl . Is there any files ?

[Brian Hamilton]

yes, there are .pas and .dfm e,g there is vcl.forms.pas

[Eugene Kryukov]

Maybe the problem in permissions, try launch setup program as administrator.

[Christian Hackbart]

It does not help to launch the installer as administrator. I should mention that i also have an empty 12.0 folder here, even if older Delphi versions (except 7.0) are uninstalled since a while.

[Brian Hamilton]

I tried running the installer as admin (windows 10 in use here), still the same problem (also made sure Delphi was not running)

[Eugene Kryukov]

Did you install to default location ?

[Christian Hackbart]

Yes, Rad Studio and your crossvcl is installed in the default folder.

[Eugene Kryukov]

This is a standalone patcher, you can run it and see the log. Please post your log here.

[Eugene Kryukov]

We updated setup - http://www.crossvcl.com/build/crossvcl.exe

[Christian Hackbart]

Tested and it now works.

[Brian Hamilton]

works for me now too, simple form with a button on it as test, running on my Mac from a normal VCL project congratulations guys, this is amazing! :)

[Brian Hamilton]

just realised that you need to switch to windows to add more components, otherwise they are greyed out no problem once you realise

[Brian Hamilton]

just testing loading a jpg image on my mac with the timage component using timage.picture.loadfromfile(filename); this produces an error bitmap is not valid should I be trying to load the image a different way (I can view the jpg image OK on the mac otherwise)

[Brian Hamilton]

big plus, you can use, Posix.Stdlib and all its functionality, e.g you can use curl :)

[Eugene Kryukov]

Please create separate issues for each problem. As for Jpeg, just tested it. You probably forgot add 'Vcl.Imaging.Jpeg' to uses section. Jpeg file loads ok on Mac.

[Brian Hamilton]

hi, OK, added that to the uses, now I get an access violation procedure RaiseSignalException(ExceptionEIP: LongWord; FaultAddr: LongWord; ErrorCode: LongWord); begin raise GetExceptionObject(ExceptionEIP, FaultAddr, ErrorCode); end; in System.Internal.ExcUtils.pas

maybe I can send you the jpg image I am trying to load ?

and yes sorry I have not created a separate thread

[Eugene Kryukov]

You can attach your jpeg here

[Brian Hamilton]

great attached I was trying to load from the gethomepath+'/Documents/'

[Eugene Kryukov]

This image loading works fine, please check that you add Vcl.Imaging.jpeg to the uses list. And also please check you path.
