ZeosDBO

About

ZeosDBO is a component suite to connect in various types of database (MySQL, Firebird, etc).

A screenshot of zeos components in lazarus component palette:

These instructions will give you the trunk version of Zeos. You can also get the testing version; see the Zeos forum for details on differences.

Install TortoiseSVN.
Create a new directory (example: C:\zeosdbo) to put the files and open this directory in Windows Explorer.
Right click inside directory and select SVN Checkout (popup menu).
Enter http://svn.code.sf.net/p/zeoslib/code-0/trunk in edit and press OK.

via esvn:

Install esvn: in terminal type: $ sudo apt-get install esvn
when finished, create a folder zeosdbo in your home dir: $ mkdir ~/zeosdbo
type $ esvn to run it in graphic mode, and so, menu file, select Checkout.
Enter http://svn.code.sf.net/p/zeoslib/code-0/trunk in URL edit and ~/zeosdbo in Local Path
Edit and press OK

via subversion:

first, install subversion: in terminal type: $ sudo apt-get install subversion
when finished, create a folder zeosdbo in your home dir: $ mkdir ~/zeosdbo
then access this folder $ cd ~/zeosdbo
type $ svn co http://svn.code.sf.net/p/zeoslib/code-0/trunk
later, if you want to update the repo, do $ cd ~/zeosdbo/trunk and $ svn update

For all platforms, to install the SVN version into your Lazarus environment:

open Lazarus IDE
select packages/open package files (.lpk), then navigate to and open the file: packages/lazarus/zcomponent.lpk
click in the button "Compile" and wait for that process
click in the button "Use/install" (it will ask to rebuild the IDE, accept and continue)
After rebuilding the IDE, the new components will appear in the last tab "Zeos Access" of the Component Palette

In order to install the Zeos components:

add the path to the Zeos source to 'Project'-'Options'-'Make'-'Directories'
and compile the IDE with -dmse_with_zeoslib -dMSEgui.
There is a predefined IDE project apps/ide/mseide_zeos.prj, update 'Project'- 'Options'-'Macros' according to your installation.
A simple demo is in mseuniverse.
