[SOLVED]Trying to install Indy10 in Lazarus

[ruk1n]

Hello,

At the moment, I'm trying to install the Indy10 package into my fresh, clean Lazarus 1.6.4, fpc 3.0.2 on Windows 10 64.

Indy10 install crashes with the following messages :

...
C:\lazarus\ide\main.pp(236,40) Hint: (5024) Parameter "Sender" not used
C:\lazarus\ide\main.pp(398,35) Hint: (5024) Parameter "Sender" not used

make[1]: *** [idepkg] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/lazarus/ide'
make: *** [idepkg] Error 2
make: Leaving directory `C:/lazarus'

It seems Lazarus can't find IdStreamVCL.pas (In fact, IdStreamVCL.pas is in Indy10/Lib/System/)
I've tried to set the path in Options/Compiler Options/Paths/ -Fu but it doesn't work...
Any clue ?

Thanks in advance

You need to compile Indy 10 twice before trying to install the indylaz package. It is a known issue but everything works fine after you've done this.

You can install indy through Online Package Manager:
1. Download/install OPM from here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9Me_c5onmWoLUJmYUNwc0ItVkk.
2. Start OPM fromLazarus Menu-->Packages-->Online Package Manager
3. Install Indy 10

You're right JD. After compiling twice Indy10 get finally installed 

Thanks a lot

GetMem: I'll try OPM, thanks too

I'm a Lazarus newbie. How do you install OPM? I downloaded the zip file but there was no readme.

Select Package-Open Package File from menu
select onlinepackagemanager.lpk
...
Click Compile (wait for its compiled), Use-Install

Thanks, that did it. I now have an IPro folder of components.

Oops: I then went to the OPM form and now I have a number of Indy tabs in the component palette
