Hi

I have a problem installing the WebServiceToolkit (WST) version 0.61
in Lazarus 1.6.

I have downloaded the WST and extracted it to directory
(..\Lazarus\AddOns\)

In Lazarus I select the menu Package -> Open Package and select the
file: wst_design.lpk.

When I click "Compile" in the dialog box I get this error message:

object_serializer.pas(1192,3) Fatal: Syntax error, "(" expected but
"identifier WRITERINFOMAP" found

I have also tried to click Use>>Install in the dialog box but I get
the same error message.

Any help is welcome!

Note:
I have a clean Lazarus 1.6 with fpspreadsheet 1.6.2 installed.

Use WST from code repository:

svn co https://svn.code.sf.net/p/lazarus-ccr/svn/wst/trunk .

Hi 

I will download from trunk and test.

I can confirm that the current version in lazarus-ccr (see link a few
posts above) does compile, but only after adding "generatorbase" to
the uses list of unit wstimportdlg (implementation part). After
installation of wst_design the Project menu of the IDE contains a new
submenu "Web Services Toolkit".

Thanks to both of you!

Download of the latest version and adding "generatorbase" to the uses
section did the trick 

Now I don't have excuses for drinking coffee and playing games.
