I'm trying to download LockBox3 so I can encrypt some files. I tried through Sourceforge and ran into all sorts of compiling difficulty such as the ANSI problem in the String Utility, $ENDIF rather than $IFEND, and others. I then went to the http://lockbox.seanbdurkin.id.au/Grok+TurboPower+LockBox link and I see lists of files but I don't see how to ultimately make a package that I can use in the application.

I'm not interested in modifying any source - I'm just hoping to use the utility/component as-is to encrypt/decrypt file such as in the codec examples.

  • You do not need to build a package - the package for D2010 is already there (three clicks starting from your link) – Sir Rufo Apr 05 '15 at 08:30
  • But maybe you need a more convenient link to the same source inside your link https://code.google.com/p/tplockbox/source/browse/ – Sir Rufo Apr 05 '15 at 08:33
  • See [Delphi XE2 TurboPower component status](http://stackoverflow.com/q/8138203/576719). – LU RD Apr 05 '15 at 10:22
  • Thank you. I see .pas files, .dpr files, .dproj, .res and others in various folders under svn. I don't recognize a package within 3 clicks. How do I locate the package by its name, where might it be, and how do I get it to my project? Again my apologies for missing something that is evidently straightforward to the general community. – Mark Naples Apr 05 '15 at 12:59

  • .dpk file is in that list ^ – John Easley Apr 05 '15 at 15:20
  • Thank you. I began making some progress by downloading these files to my workstation and attempting to compile, but I am continually receiving "file not found" errors. I am very tediously working my way through that - but I'm thinking there must be an easier way to compile and build the package. Is there a better way to do it directly? – Mark Naples Apr 06 '15 at 03:32
  • Something makes me feel that you download this file by file. Did you ever used a Version Control System and checked out the files from there? – Sir Rufo Apr 06 '15 at 10:40
  • No I have not - therein lies the problem. Is this a straightforward exercise? I checked out the Git website but I didn't see specific instructions on downloading, only setting up and maintaining files. Thank you for your question. – Mark Naples Apr 06 '15 at 12:02

You can download a svn client (take 1 minute)

The installer contains all command line tools (svn, svnadmin, svnsync, svnserve, svnmucc) but no application bindings nor Apache modules.

Command-line access

Use this command to anonymously check out the latest project source code: Non-members may check out a read-only working copy anonymously over HTTP.
svn checkout http://tplockbox.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ tplockbox-read-only

  • 3) create a folder where you want to store the download
  • 4) inside that folder open windows cmd
  • 5) paste above svn checkout ... link to cmd

enter image description here

after ENTER the download starts.

  • this was an excellent explanation and worked wonderfully. I am now working on installing the package. Thank you very much. – Mark Naples Apr 06 '15 at 20:48
