Can Indy 10 be used with Delphi 7?
I am trying to find it, or purchase it. But, I cannot find any information on it.
I found where to download it, though:
Their website, http://www.atozed.com, does not give much information, either.

Installing Indy 10 in Delphi 7.
$(Delphi) is the path to your local Delphi 7 installation.
Download the github project zip for Indy 10. https://github.com/IndySockets/Indy
Extract the zip to C:\Repos\Indy10
Open command prompt as Administrator, then type...
C:
CD \Repos\Indy10\Lib
Fulld_7.bat
After Fulld_7.bat build is completed with no errors, copy the contents of the outputted D7 folder from
C:\Repos\Indy10\D7
to $(Delphi)\Projects\Bpl
Open Delphi 7.
Add library paths to Delphi 7.
Click Tools
-> Environment Options
-> Library
tab.
Click ellipses button next to Library path
.
Add C:\Repos\Indy10\Lib\Core
Add C:\Repos\Indy10\Lib\System
Add C:\Repos\Indy10\Lib\Protocols
Add component packages to Delphi 7
From D7 top menu Click Component
-> Install Packages
-> Add
Browse to $(Delphi)\Projects\Bpl
Add dclIndyCore70.bpl
Add dclIndyProtocols70.bpl
You should now have the Indy controls on the control palette.

Indy 10 supports Delphi/C++Builder 5 and higher. So yes, Delphi 7 is supported.
The official Indy website is http://www.indyproject.org.
