Tarsier: Installation file management

This page provides an overview of the files involved in an installation of Tarsier.

Knowing which files Tarsier needs may be helpful in resolving installation problems.

Tarsier needs the following files:

1. The actual application file that is executed within Windows:
   1. Tarsino.exe
2. The Borland .dll files: A number of essential .dll files that are associated with any application compiled using Borland C++ Builder (including Tarsier)
   1. borlndmm.dll
   2. cp3245mt.dll
   3. bcbsmp60.bpl
   4. bdertl60.bpl
   5. dbrtl60.bpl
   6. rtl60.bpl
   7. vcl60.bpl
   8. vcldb60.bpl
   9. vclx60.bpl
   10. glew32.dll (OpenGL graphics extension library)
3. The Tarsier .dll files: A number of semi-optional .dll files that each provide a specific function within Tarsier. There are many that you may never need, but the ones you will almost always need are:
   1. AgencyDLL.dll
   2. DataManagerViewDLL.dll
   3. ModelTimeToolDLL.dll
   4. RasterDataDLL.dll
   5. RasterLookupDLL.dll
   6. RasterToolDLL.dll
   7. RenderViewFormDLL.dll
   8. VectorDataDLL.dll
   9. ThreeDDataDLL.dll

Installation files need to match: If you update your version of Tarsier, you need a matching set of Tarsier .dll files and the Tarsino.exe file. 'Matching' means that these should all have been compiled at about the same time, i.e. they should all have the same date, within an hour or so. Note that the Borland .dll files will have an older date, and that's okay. If your files don't match, you need to re-install Tarsier, and afterwards, check again that the files match.
