I've used the Indy components under Delphi but can't get the
indy4lazarus package to install under lazarus, running under Windows
XP Pro.

I've seen a couple of comments from others who didn't manage to
install the package.

Has anyone successfully installed it under windows XP Pro, please?  If
so, could they please help a lazarus tyro by quoting their compiler
settings and anything else they consider relevant. :?: Thanks.

Hallo,

i habe tried ti install some package and did it the way explained in
the wiki. Comilinng an rebuilding lazarus went well, but there is no
new tab in the IDE.
Indy doesn't compile, but sql, printer, imgage.
In the case of image I could run the example.

Indy is crap.
Take Synapse. http://www.ararat.cz/synapse/
You don't have to install anything. It's simple and reliable.

of course, indy is crap, well, it worked fine in Delphi with a lot of
additional tools...

ARE there actually ppl that got INDY working? I'm also interested in
Jedi VCL stuff, I'm preparing for my master thesis project. At our
university everyone is using Java and since I hate Java and before
Delphi 2004 used to love Delphi (and still love pascal) I'm
considering Lazarus very much for my Agent based learning community
(with probably IRC as a communication base).

MarcovV Has indy9 working on win32. I don't know when or where the
sources were committed, but I guess somewhere in the fpc tree

well, that's at least a bit, it seems to be that the idwinsock2 file
is not interpreted right on windows... first I removed the { accolades
and places // instead since the compiler complained about level x
comments... that solved part of the problem but now I get:

3967: procedure WS2Stub_WSACleanup;                       asm  mov
eax,  0; call WS2Call; jmp eax; end;
C:\Lazarus\indy4lazarus\source\IdWinsock2.pas(3967,53) Fatal: Syntax
error, "BEGIN" expected but "ASM" found

Someone is trying to comment on this in rather vague english:

in short:
FPC does not support the following: Code: [Select]procedure bla;
asm
  // some asm here
end;

use this instead:Code: [Select]procedure bla;
begin
  asm
    // some asm here
  end;
end;
