Posted - Oct 14 2025 : 05:58:46 We use ImageEN on a very old Delphi version (XE2) on Windows 7 but now went to Delphi version 12 on Windows 11 with that same ImageEN version.
It worked fine. We don't use that computer a lot but now when we want to compile our program we immediately get errors that all kind of IE-units cannot be compiled, that the software can't find ie.inc etc. although if you search for a unit in the program it can find the units we use in that program.
Our programmer didn't want to use a newer version of ImageEN because he read that a certain function that we use a lot was changed in a newer version and that would mean a lot of work.
My question therefore is: can we use an old version of ImageEN that doesn't support our new Delphi version? |

1. There are no functions that have changed "a lot" in newer versions. All changes are kept to a minimum and if it took more than an hour to upgrade any project to the latest version, I would be amazed. Please see:
https://www.imageen.com/help/Updating_and_Compatibility.html
There is even an app to update projects automatically.
2. If you want to use an old version of ImageEn on a new version of Delphi (newer than it was designed for) then you will need to create new packages and edit the source code to add definitions for the relevant Delphi version. It is not something we recommend, because your ImageEn version will never have been tested against that Delphi release.
