Hi Guys,
I am trying to access this guide:
http://wiki.remobjects.com/wiki/Install_into_Delphi_6
It redirects to:
https://docs.remobjects.com/docs
But the docs.remobjects.com site is not working. (This site cannot be reached… connection reset message)
I also notice the links on the Pascal Script page : https://www.remobjects.com/ps.aspx also go to the non working docs.remobjects.com site. (Plus I had to find that page using Google)
If anyone could provide help here it would be great,
Thanks
– Peter Mayes

site Documentation | RemObjects Software works as expected. it allows to select Data Abstract , Remoting SDK , Hydra or Elements documentation sites.
Pascal script articles can be found at pascalscript/Articles at master · remobjects/pascalscript · GitHub
Install into Delphi 6
This page provides instructions on how to manually install RemObjects Software’s products into Delphi 6.
Installing into Delphi 7
- Delphi 10.2 Tokyo
manually can be done also in a similar manner, if desired, instead of using our installer.
Since our Fall 2012 Release 7.0.63.1055 Pascal Script is removed from release.
Install Notes
The instructions below assume that the following four products are to be installed on a Win32 box:
RemObjects SDK
Data Abstract
Hydra
You may need to make some changes to the instructions that follow depending on your environment:
If you are running on a Win64 box, change all references from C:\Program Files\
to C:\Program Files (x86)\
Ignore lines that relate to product(s) you are not installing but bear in mind that Data Abstract
requires Remoting SDK
.
These instructions also work for later versions of Delphi if you would prefer to install manually. Replace D6 references by:
D7 for Delphi 7
D9 for Delphi 2005
D10 for Delphi 2006
D11 for Delphi 2007
D12 for Delphi 2009
D14 for Delphi 2010
D15 for Delphi XE
D16 for Delphi XE2
D17 for Delphi XE3
D18 for Delphi XE4
D19 for Delphi XE5
D20 for Delphi XE6
D21 for Delphi XE7
D22 for Delphi XE8
D23 for Delphi 10 Seattle
D24 for Delphi 10.1 Berlin
D25 for Delphi 10.2 Tokyo
Folder Creation
Delphi 6, 7, 2006 and 2007 cannot create folders automatically,so some folders need to be created before compiling packages:
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Everwood \Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\RemObjects SDK for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Pascal Script for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Data Abstract for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Hydra for Delphi\Dcu\D6
Add Path References
The following folder references are needed in the system path or in Delphi’s override path:
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Everwood \Bin
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\RemObjects SDK for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Pascal Script for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Data Abstract for Delphi\Dcu\D6
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Hydra for Delphi\Dcu\D6
However, Delphi 6 has a limitation for the length of its library path, so it is strongly recommended that you use variables.
It is possible to declare these or other variables and put them in user overrides:
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Everwood \Source\Delphi as EW
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\RemObjects SDK for Delphi\Source as RO
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Pascal Script for Delphi\Source as PS
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Data Abstract for Delphi\Source as DA
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Hydra for Delphi\Source as HY
Set up the library path with these variables:
$(RO);$(EW);$(EW)\..\..\Bin;$(RO)\..\Dcu\D6;$(PS);$(PS)\..\Dcu\D6;$(DA);$(DA)\..\Dcu\D6
Packages to Install
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Everwood \Source\Delphi\RemObjects_Everwood_D6 .dpk
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\RemObjects SDK for Delphi\Source\BuildPackages_D6 .bpg
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Pascal Script for Delphi\Source\BuildPackages_D6 .bpg
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Data Abstract for Delphi\Source\BuildPackages_D6 .bpg
C:\Program Files \RemObjects Software\Hydra for Delphi\Source\BuildPackages_D6 .bpg
In case of compilation problems with RemObjects_Indy_
D6 .dpk
package check contents of $(RO)\RemObjects.inc
file. It contains a lot of DEFINEs, so it is necessary to uncomment one of them depending on installed Indy package version.
Note: Some Data Abstract
and/or Hydra
packages may fail to install. This is normal unless you have all 3rd party libraries that we support (i.e. Devart Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC)
, DBISAM
, DevExpress
, etc).

Thanks for the rapid response.
I had looked at the Git Hub articles but only two are listed that I can see:
Neither mentions Delphi 6.
I don’t see how you found that Delphi 6 article. Maybe I am not seeing the link somewhere.
I even downloaded the git repo as .zip and can not find that article.
I can you use what you have posted here though. Thanks.
