Installation of DWS

IMPORTANT! Be sure to remove all previous files from earlier versions before installing a new major build series version. This includes the sample applications from previous versions as well.

Compiled Version

  1. Unzip the dwsXXXX.ZIP in your choosen directory for the components. Be sure to include folder names since there are various subdirectories included in the ZIP file. You may be prompted to overwrite files if the folders are not used.
  2. Now start Delphi and execute "Install Packages" from menu "Packages". Choose "Add" and select the file dwsXXdX.bpl.

Source Code Version

  1. Open the package source file dwsXXd4src.dpk or dwsXXd5src.dpk (depending on your Delphi version) and then press the "Install" button.

All Versions

Be sure to include the path in Delphi's library search path to avoid file not found errors at compile time. This is found in the Options for the project on the "directories" tab.

You should notice a new tab on the component palette: "DWS". It contains the core components of the DelphiWebScript engine and additional Libraries.

Isapi Components

The ISAPI components are added to the DWS tab on the component palette.
