Also add “Global” to the “uses” section. See here:
This post shows some code snippets for getting data from Delphi Byte arrays (TBytes) and TMemoryStream’s in and out of Chilkat. First, here are some code snippets to convert from a TMemoryStream to a byte array, and back. Delphi TBytes to TMemoryStream

Chilkat v9.5.0.80 adds a new BinData function named GetBytesPtr. It returns a pointer to the internal bytes contained within the BinData. This post shows one way of writing those bytes to a Delphi TStream (using the Chilkat non-ActiveX Delphi DLL). procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject); var rawBytes: PByte; ItemCount: Integer; binDat: HCkBinData; Stream: TMemoryStream; Writer: TBinaryWriter; byteArr: TBytes; numBytes: Integer; i: Integer; […]
