New release?

[jhersant]

I don't understand why you don't want (I have written 1 or 2 posts on this matter) to make a clean release 4.52 for D2009.
I find it tedious, and irritating, to download "VCLZipPro451_1.zip" and apply the update "VCLZipUpdates.zip", instead of having a "VCLZipPro452.zip" with all included. It should not take that long...

I also believe that an official D2010 release is necessary now (don't have it yet and don't know if it requires code changes ... but new D2010 packages would be nice). What do you think?

Anybody there?
This lack of support really begins to annoy me. What I am asking for is rather simple (new/updated distribution)...
I am paying for support, through yearly subsrciption, after all

I apologize for the delay in answering this, I was out of the country and did not have good access to the internet.

I have been working on getting a distribution together for a 2010 release. The separate update file is something that should normally only be needed for initial installation so I did not see changing that as a high priority. There have been no complaints about it (other than yours). Sorry for any difficulties it has caused, is there some reason why you have to continually re-install VCLZip?

VCLZip works in 2010 without any code changes, all you need to do is create a new 2010 package.

I will be coming out with a new 2010 release shortly and that will get rid of the extra update file.

Thanks,

Kevin

That sounds good to me.
I am not continually reinstalling VCLZIP. I have just been slightly irritated when I installed VCLZip the last time, where I forgot to apply the "patch", and all I ask is a clean release where everything (all changes + support of all compilers up to D2010) is included. A sort of "no brainer" distribution.
I think it is good practice, and in everyone's interest, that's all.
Let's not make a big issue out of it.
