You can make it work. It is not that difficult.

  • Download from SVN. I will refer to the base directory as tplockbox .
  • Go to the tplockbox/trunc/packages directory. Copy the contents of the d2010 directory to a new directory named XE .
  • Rename TP_LockBox_d2010.grouproj to TP_LockBox_XE.groupproj
  • Open it, right-click TP_LockBox3_d2010.bpl , go to "Options", change the "LIB Suffix" in the "Description" section to _XE .
  • Do the same for the dclTP_LockBox3_d2010.bpl project
  • Adjust output paths and directories for all projects. I don’t remember if I just went ahead and changed it globally.
  • Create and install the TP_LockBox3_XE.bpl and dclTP_LockBox3_XE.bpl .

If you want the test cases to work, you will have to change the file tplockbox/trunc/test/uLockBox_TestCases.pas . There are several hard-coded checks for an older version of DUnit than Delphi XE. You can just comment on these checks.

There, a version of Delphi 2010 is available on Songbeamer.com . Based on my experience porting Abbrevia to Delphi XE, it should work as is. You might want to rename the project files, but this should be about it.

I believe the Songbeamer version is not an official sourceforge version.

Sean manages LockBox 2 and 3 codes here: link

Also see this post on your forums.

You should try the soureforge.net version, TurboPower tools have been updated by Nick Hodges and many others (IIRC is even based on the songbeamer.com version):
