problem installing thtmlviewer

[hartcons]

we're trying to install thtmlviewer into the c++ personality of rad studio 10.3.1 and getting errors

we're following these instructions:
https://nachbar.name/2011/07/16/compili ... uilder-xe/

but still having trouble.

the goal is to test RvHtmlViewImporter to see if it can import the html produced by the web html editor tinyMCE

basically we're looking to send html from the web to the server and then pdf that html on the server using richview/gnostice

here the messages from trying to compile the package:

What version of THTMLViewer did you try to install?
Did you take v11.9 from https://github.com/BerndGabriel/HtmlViewer ?

[hartcons]

we may have been using a different version (my colleague downloaded it)

i tried just now to create a c++ package based on the source files in this directory:
https://github.com/BerndGabriel/HtmlVie ... 1.9/source

and got a bunch of errors.

things about needing to add the fmx framework and then tbegazoombox not found and then begapreview.pas not compatible with the fmx framework and more errors after that

[Sergey Tkachenko]

THTMLViewer does not support FMX, and TRichView does not support it as well yet.

[hartcons]

we're not using fmx. we use vcl.

but the error message said i needed to add fmx.

i found if i said no to that error message then i could choose vcl from a pulldown but still got the same errors i got originally.

so i'm stuck.

is anyone successfully using thtmlviewer with the c++ personality in rad studio 10.3.1?
