Hi, Playing around with delphichromiumembedded (from https://github.com/hgourvest/dcef3 ) and I would like to show a string of HTML, without having to save it to disk first. I have been using the 'guiclient' demo as a reference and tried the following without success: FChromium.Browser.MainFrame.LoadString(LHtmlString, 'source://html'); Does anyone know if this is possible (and if so how)? TIA!

Keen on the renewals aren't they? Mine renews 31st March. I was first asked to agree the quote (which meant an immediate invoice was due) last November. I now get an email that indicates it has expired (even though they state the date) and asking me to make up my mind "This is to make a follow up on your decision regarding your account renewal which expired as of 30/3/2017 Please advise if you wish to renew your Maintenance for another year, or alternatively if you wish to terminate this contract." Getting a bit ahead of ourselves I think.

Wish: Interface support for record/class helpers Scenario: We are adding record helpers for all our enumerated types to reduce code clutter and enhance readability type TMyEnum = (A, B C); TMyEnumHelper = record helper for TMyEnum function ToString:string; function Description: string; end; The old pattern was to create function TMyEnumValueToString(const Value: TMyEnum):String; function TMyEnumDescription(const Value: TMyEnum):String; in addition to the enumerated type. Rather than having to write var Code: TMyEnum; begin Writeln(TMyEnumValueToString(Code), ' ', TMyEnumDescription(Code)); We can now write var Code: TMyEnum; begin Writeln(Code.ToString, ' ', Code.Description); which reads a lot better. But - For unit testing, this creates another predicament We have used an RTTI trick to create a loop for each value in anon.type T for enumerations, and hence had a type TEnumTester type reference to function EnumToString (const V...

I have a DB-related question that might seem rather naive, so bear with me. I'm working on a client-server app that's got several dozen forms that have been touched by numerous developers over time. We're currently using D2007. Most of the forms work on one table (many different tables, but just one at a time), either adding or modifying one record at a time. (It's mostly a huge master/detail list where you select a client and there are several dozen forms that are used to collect and update their status in various areas.) There are tons of lookup-comboboxes on most forms. So a given form will have a TADOQuery for the main form, and a bunch that are used with the lookup combos. It's 100% TADOQuerys (as opposed to any TADOTables). Most of the forms are what I've seen in the past, where there's a query that does a SELECT to populate DB-aware controls. When the user says to Save the form, an INSERT or UPDATE statement is composed and run. But I just found one f...

Most FMX non-native OSX controls seem pretty good these days. But, not TScrollbar. Below is the FMX OSX (top) and FMX Windows versions. There's absolutely no shading on the OSX one, nor buttons on the ends to single step. (I guess maybe that's not the Mac standard.) However, I don't think I can use the OSX version as-is. Is this something that a custom style would handle? Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Hi, I need a support for applications that start with Windows 10, Uses Registry codes only do not work on Windows 10. Any tips for it works, something else needs to be done?

Does anyone know where I can find a FAST JSON "serializer" ? I need to store my Object into persistent files. I've so far used XSuperObject for this purpose. XSuperObject allows me to save my "Delphi" object into a JSon string simple as typing MyObject.AsJson... the only drawback is that serialization is slow has hell as soon TList item count grows... I'm bascially using such structure TWareHouseEntry= class(TPersistent) public Order: string; Reference: string; Palette: string; Details: TList ; end; TCartonDetail = class(TPersistent) public QRCode:String; Quantity: double; User: string; CreationDate:TDatetime; end; I'm saving structure this each time my user scan a carton. Under Android, it takes me 6 000ms to serialize an object having 1200 items... This is tooo much time. Tooks about 10ms in Java.... Any idea, tips ?

How large can be an array in 64-bit for Delphi? Can it be larger than 2GB? The size of an array is restricted to a signed 32-bit integer or in 64-bit environments it can be a signed 64-bit integer?

Hello guys, How do I extract the pointer to the underlying array of a dynamic array? Since a dynamic array is actually a field for the length and a pointer to the raw data, I am wondering how to use dynamic arrays to play with native C APIs that only accept plain array pointers. I am used to play with static arrays for this role, however this time I am unable to use it once the initial size of the array is unknown. I would love to appreciate your help, thanks in advance :D Given I have: var Buffer: TArray ; Is it possible to extract PByte from that without having to perform copies?

I wish other companies would disclose post-mortems like this.

Originally shared by David Berneda 2017 will be a very busy year I guess. I'm working on a "PEG" engine for Delphi, in order to improve TeeBI expression and sql parsers. PEG is a formalism for generic lexer/parsing of any language, just using BNF-like grammars. First attempt looks promising, it can now bootstrap itself with its own grammar, so it can also parse any other grammars. Sources: https://github.com/davidberneda/PEG There are several other PEG implementations for other languages (Go, Dart, Rust etc) but couldn't find anyone for Delphi

Innovations that would help developers? The classic Edit-Compile-Debug cycle has been around since the 50's, and we're still using that model to build software today. Hardware and display technology has improved to the point where we probably have terraflops of CPU bandwidth that's going unused today. In another thread, people were talking about how this or that are no longer "innovative", and to ME, that implies something is missing for them in terms of what's possible. What is it? What's missing? What would really make a difference today, this year, in the next few years? I personally don't see faster computers, more RAM, or bigger storage devices as providing much more than a marginally better experience. I mean, how much quicker can we make the Edit-Compile-Debug cycle, and how can it possibly translate into significant improvements in our productivity? Today, it seems the perception of overall programmer skills has shifted from "the ability t...

Try to generate a PDF/A but something is wrong. Any idea ? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41636452/how-to-generate-a-valid-pdf-a-file-with-synopse-pdf http://stackoverflow.com/questions/41636452/how-to-generate-a-valid-pdf-a-file-with-synopse-pdf

What it the fastest way to get the number of distinct elements in a TList Have a look at this small example (List should stay a TList): List : TList ; StringList: TStringlist; TScannedItem = class public PaletBarCode: String; CartonBarCode : String end; List := TList .Create; List.Items.add(TScannedItem.Create('PALET1','4555'); List.Items.add(TScannedItem.Create('PALET2','4555645'); List.Items.add(TScannedItem.Create('PALET1','44645'); List.Items.add(TScannedItem.Create('PALET3','449'); List.Items.add(TScannedItem.Create('PALET3','48645'); Should I iterate throught my list like this : Stringlist := TStringList.create; for ScannedItem in List do if Stringlist.IndexOf(ScannedItem.PaletBarCode) = -1 then Stringlist.Add(ScannedItem.PaletBarCode); Showmessage('# of palets '+ StringList.count.ToString); (3 given the above example) or is there a better way to achieve this ?

Hello guys. In the company I work, we're trying to move our data from the Soap Webserver to online usage. Note, we use Delphi Seatlle Professional. It happens that we don't have the license for the DataSnap tools of Delphi. Searching the web, I found that the Soap Connection (TSoapConnection) supports DataSnap methods and comunications. It is recommendable? Anyone knows any components (free or paid) that do the same work without upgrading my Delphi's license? Thanks!

Anyone care to take an informed guess at when Delphi 10.2 Tokyo will be released?

Do you use build events?

“Can I use Aurelius in my existing application without rewriting it?”. “Can I use my database with 253 tables and 4512 columns without changing schema?”. Yes, you can.
