If you plan to use visual components at design time then you need to install the bpl. Launch Delphi and go in component > Install Packages… > and choose the BPL located in {alcinoe_rootdir}libbplalcinoeWin32rioAlcinoe_rio.bpl (if you are in delphi Rio else choose the directory that correspond to your Delphi version). You still need to add in your search path {alcinoe_rootdir}source
Alcinoe use sometime some advanced functions that need to patch the delphi RTL. For this you need to include in your project search path ALL the directories located under {alcinoe_rootdir}referencesembarcaderorio10_3_3patched (if you are in delphi Rio else choose the directory that correspond to your Delphi version) like for exemple:
- {alcinoe_rootdir}referencesembarcaderorio10_3_3patchedfmx
- {alcinoe_rootdir}referencesembarcaderorio10_3_3patchedrtlios
- {alcinoe_rootdir}referencesembarcaderorio10_3_3patchedrtlandroid
