Delphi 7 Personal

Post by xo310 »

Hi,
I was just exploring hooking demos but when i run any i get a "madchook.dll not found" message.
I searched in the forum an found a pos where Mr. Madshi toldsomebody that trial versions of delphi wont accept 3rd party DCUs. Does that apply to delphi 7 personal edition too which i have?
If not then what could be the problem?
thanks

You can use madCHook.pas instead of madCodeHook.pas. This way your exe/dll will link to madCHook.dll. That should work with D7 Personal, too. However, you can only use madCodeHook this way. The other components of madCollecton like madExcept simply don't work with D7 Personal.

There's one way around it: Namely buying the source code. D7 Personal simply doesn't accept 3rd party precompiled DCUs. It does accept 3rd party source code, though.
