The Xceed Component Installer will copy all the necessary files into the library's installation folder (usually in \Program Files\Xceed Components\Bin\ActiveX) and register the XCEEDZIP.DLL ActiveX / COM component. The only thing left to do is to make the control available in your C++ Builder 3.0 environment by inserting the control into the toolbar. To do this, perform the following steps:
Start C++ Builder 3.0
Open an existing project or create a new project
From the Component menu, select the Import ActiveX control item
Select the "Xceed Zip Compression Library 6.x" item from the list of installed ActiveX controls (if the component is not there, we recommend that you reinstall the library on your machine instead of choosing the Add button and selecting the XCEEDZIP.DLL control from the Windows System directory)
Click on the Install button that's on the Import ActiveX dialog
The Install dialog will appear. Click on the "Into new package" tab.
Enter a filename and path for the new package in the "File Name" field. It should be a ".BPK" file, and you'll probably want to put it with your other package files in your C++ Builder installation folder. We suggest that the name of the BPK file be the same as the component.
Add the XceedZip_TLB.cpp file to the project. This file contains wrapper classes for COM interfaces and coclass COM objects and will be created by C++Builder when importing the control. To add the file to your project, go to the Project/Add to Project menu item, select the folder where the BPK file was installed and select the XceedZip_TLB.cpp file.
Click OK in the install dialog
If everything was successful, you should get a message that the package has been updated and that the new components have been registered.
Close the package dialog
Click Yes when you are prompted to confirm the changes.
The components should now appear in the ActiveX tab of your component toolbar.
The License method must be called to license the library for runtime use. This applies to both registered users as well as users of a time-limited free trial license.
