Hello,

Do you have steps to reproduce the problem?

Hi Landgraf


Create new  Windows VCL application
Add TAureliusDataset on form
Left click on TAureliusDataset and select "load field defenitions..."
On the new dialog, select the Package tab
Click on the + button and select the package
Click OK

Actually : Invalid pointer operation
Exp: no errors

Project sent to support.

I've also noticed that TMS Datamodeler doesn't save my Aurelius unit anymore.

Is there something wrong with the .dgp file ?
6

Any news?

7

Can you please describe in details what do you mean by this? Do you get an error message?
8
Sorry it was my mistake (should double check prior opening tickets ;) )
Aurelius path was set in another folder...

TMS Data modeler is working fine.

Unfortunately we could not reproduce the issue. Do you have 3rd party plugins installed in your IDE? Can you temporarily remove them, restart the IDE and see if the problem persists?

What is the exact Delphi version you use, as stated in the About dialog box?
10

Delphi version : 26.0.33219.4899


I guess it happens because of IDE Fixpack expert !
Removing it solves the problem

Thank you for letting us (and other customers) know.

I am experiencing the same problem.  The error message I get says:


"Can't load package xxx.bpl.  The specified module cannot be found."

FYI, I recently installed TMSFNCUIPackXE12, InfoPower4k and FirstClass4k.
14

I found the problem for my installation.  My package project included several units unrelated to the model classes.  I removed them, recompile and then was able to add the package to the loader.  Apparently, the other files required one or more modules which the loader could not find.


FYI, the error message could have been more helpful.  It should have named the module it could not find.  Due to the lack of information, I assumed it was the module I was trying to load.

The error message is not provided by Aurelius, but Delphi.
