Closed amjadtbssm closed 6 years ago

amjadtbssm commented 6 years ago

I was wondering is there a way to update the packages already available on Delphinus?? I was installing SynEdit but it failed a numerous times, upon inspection I found out that the SynEdit folder in comps folder is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\17.0\Comps\SynEdit\Source\Source instead of C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\17.0\Comps\SynEdit\Source any ideas please??

1. What do You mean by "update"? You mean to clone repository / make changes or fixes / sideload it?

:warning: Watch out for issue https://github.com/Memnarch/Delphinus/issues/43 - make sure source folder has same as package before sideloading.

2. Do You mean that there is a bug in latest SynEdit release? Have You reported it to its author? Maybe make a fork / clone / fix / commit / push / make a pull request with fix / gain the kudos? :grin:

The double Source/Source folder is ugly but not an issue. If installation fails for you there seems to be a problem with Synedit(did you install the version of HEAD of it?) or its packagedefinition. As mentioned by Pawe1, best option might be to forward it to the SynEdit-Project.

The issue already exists. maybe bump it by commenting: https://github.com/SynEdit/SynEdit/issues/70

Installing both HEAD or release version gives the same error here is a log file. Install from folder didn't work either. I'm updating an old project to Seattle plz help out.

As said above, that is an issue with synedit. They need to fix it on their side atm.

Pawe1 commented 6 years ago

Try uninstall package / clone / delete "base": ".", from Delphinus.Info.json and sideload package considering what I said before. But this is just a temporary workaround.

If this works create some patch and make a pull request to share the fix with community :wink:

BTW this is strange that only available release in SynEdit reposiroty is not a stable one... :roll_eyes:

Well folks, I found the Core of the Problem, its Delphinus. SynEdit Packages looks for Source folder as "....\Source\FileName.pas" Whereas Delphinus puts every folder in the source folder. synedit

Is there a way to copy a folder with Delphinus.Install.json up one folder of Source folder, I mean the install directory (The directory where Delphinus makes the source folder).

@amjadtbssm I wrote correct answer for Your problem: https://github.com/Memnarch/Delphinus/issues/57#issuecomment-335438608

Having valid config files shall be the responsibility of repository maintainers.
