Is it possible to range an arrays in Watches view to specific index range? Sometimes I work with arrays that contain 100Ks lines, and Watches limit the view to index 131071... I would like to see more than this, or perhaps a range of indexes like between 200,000 and 250,000. Is this possible?

I am happy to announce the latest release of DDDebug - the Delphi Memory Profiler. DDDebug is a comprehensive collection of debugging tools for Delphi. DDDebug consists of several modules which cover process-, thread- and exception information as well as detailed analysis about memory management and usage in real time. DDDebug supports Delphi 5 to 7 as well as Delphi 2005 up to Delphi 10.2 Tokyo (32bit and 64bit). DDDebug makes it very easy to find, identify and remove memory leaks and spot growing memory consumption. Integrate DDDebug in your existing application by adding a couple of lines only and use it within your running application to profile the memory usage, take snapshots, detect potential leaks and show their callstack.

The ARC vs non-ARC situation adds yet another layer of complexity to creating cross platform code. The Linux compiler uses ARC - while Windows and OSX do not. Guess what that does to the Linux support: It falls way down on the viability list for cross platform code for servers and services. Note that I don't mind ARC - I just don't get why they did not move to ARC for all platforms. They could duplicate the libs, put the old ones into care & maintenance, and introduce arc.system. * arc.vcl. * arc.data. * and so forth... The current situation is pretty much ridiculous. /rant Edit: Added what I wrote in the EMBT forums. I do not expect my non-ARC code to behave on ARC. It is after all a very different life cycle management model. If you expect to be able to take your non-ARC code and move to Linux without changes - you are delusional. My gripe is that I can't really go cross platform now with the non-ARC Win32/Win64/OSX compilers. There is no way I want to maintain

Dear Developers! The question concerns the new version of Rad Studio 10.2 Tokyo Tell me, please, the answer to the next question ..

New to image processing, in FMX I'm trying to convert from color to mono. I can't seem to get the code below to work. Am I doing something obviously wrong? procedure ConvertAlphaColorToMono( var aColor: TAlphaColor); var Mono: Cardinal; begin Mono := Min(255,Trunc( (TAlphaColorRec(aColor).R * 0.21) + (TAlphaColorRec(aColor).G * 0.72) + (TAlphaColorRec(aColor).B * 0.07))); TAlphaColorRec(aColor).R := Mono; TAlphaColorRec(aColor).G := Mono; TAlphaColorRec(aColor).B := Mono; end; Note there are other numeric factors than the ones I'm using above.

It often bothered me that the stock Delphi TZipFile lacks support for password encryption.

License Rant - Started to install Tokyo on a new machine, and like a good little developer, I used the license manager to UN-authorize my current install, then on the new install, it tells me my license is no good any more.

The pleasure of a commit. Time ago I read about what is the main cause of the success of the Post-it's (tm). The explanation is about the pleasure associated to the fact of "destroy the Post-it'. This means, to our brain, "Task finished. Another parcel of worry free to be dedicated to new things". And our body, to celebrate it, put an endorphin charge, the most natural drug. Literally, the same sensation is got every time we do a COMMIT (with git, may be a "PUSH"). Like the sensation is GOOD, our brain say "more, more, endorphin!". And we make all possible to get another good sensation like this. This sensation is, some times the base of the productivity. Because of this, we treat to divide the tasks of programming into little units that permit at least one daily commit. I like the philosophy behind of Git, because he allows the programmer, administrate his own endorphin dosis. He can, divide the assigned task, for what the team wait a PUSH, i

I need to replace a bunch of visual components with similar ones in ~75 form units. Polling the audience for a solution that can handle them quickly and easily. Any suggestions?

Because of this group i solved a leak / AV in a way that i would not have done before perusing this group. The problem, though, comes from me designing an interface and letting some of my TDataModules implement it. I have a mode of instantiating these modules that rely on finalisation handling (where the problem occurred of course) Ten years ago i would have started to re-factor and re-architect the whole thing to figure out when the problem surfaces and then conclude what not to do. Yesterday, instead, i went into the CPU view, googled 'delphi cpu view', skipped all entries where the thing is to get rid of the CPU view and read through Brian Longs brilliant page: http://www.blong.com/Conferences/DCon2001/Debugging/Debugging.htm So - i did not have to re-do anything. After half an hour i realise exactly where to nil something to have everything work 100% cleanly again. Surely, when i was a kid, i went to ASM courses and did projects but that was such a long time ago and the pro

given this code: var LItem: TListItem; [...] LItem := nil; // * here * Folder := GetFolder(tvFolders.Selected); ListView.Items.BeginUpdate; try mFile := TGXFile.Create(Folder); try LItem := ListView.Items.Add; FileToListItem(mFile, LItem); except on E: Exception do begin FreeAndNil(mFile); raise; end; end; finally ListView.Items.EndUpdate; end; if Assigned(LItem) then begin ListView.Selected := nil; ListView.Selected := LItem; //FI:W508 - Assignment has side effects ListView.ItemFocused := LItem; end; Should the compiler really emit a hint H2077: Value assigned to 'LItem' never used in the line marked above?

Is it just me or does {$WARN DUPLICATE_CTOR_DTOR OFF} not work in Delphi 10.1 Berlin? (Back story: Checked out latest mORMot, trying to inter-alia use unit SynCommons.pas in a project that has Project options "Hints and Warnings" -> "Output Warnings" set to "as errors". I've done the obvious which is to set {$WARN DUPLICATE_CTOR_DTOR OFF} but the compiler keeps complaining about duplicate constructor ESynException.CreateLastOSError with identical parameters being inaccessible from C++ regardless. What am I missing? I can make the code compile by changing the "Output Warnings" option but I really don't want to do that.)

Could anyone suggest where software products could be registered/certified in Europe to get on market?

Delphi Tokyo Starter has an entry to create a "Web Server Application" on the New -> Other menu. And the Starter SKU doesn't support this type of application. When you go through the wizzard you end up with an error " Error creating form: Application is not licensed to use this feature" Marco Cantù, should I report to QC?

Based on a recent post here, it looks like the new Linux compiler uses the x87 unit for floating point. Naturally this won't perform well. If it is true. I don't have the compiler. Can anyone confirm or refute this?

TL;DR If I put a control inside a TScrollBox at negative offset, is there a way to force scrollbars to appear? So I have this scrollbox (TScrollBox, VCL) ... If I put inside one TPanel so that it lies outside the scrollbox on the right/bottom edge, scrollbox will display scrollbars. All good and well. If I, however, place that TPanel so that it lies outside the scrollbox on the left/top side, there are no scrollbars. object ScrollBox: TScrollBox Left = 40 Top = 24 Width = 225 Height = 160 TabOrder = 0 object Panel1: TPanel Left = 88 Top = 72 Width = 217 Height = 137 Caption = 'Panel1' TabOrder = 0 end end object ScrollBox1: TScrollBox Left = 368 Top = 24 Width = 225 Height = 160 TabOrder = 1 object Panel2: TPanel Left = -99 Top = -56 Width = 217 Height = 137 Caption = 'Panel1' TabOrder = 0 end end If I understand the code correctly, thi

Is Tokio 10.2 web installer available ? and where ? I didn't found it on my END eligible downloads !

Just installed Tokyo 10.2, and again I have to reinstall all the third party components :(

This Python exception handling library shows a great stacktrace, I hope it can give some inspiration to @madExcept and others. I especially like the function parameter values are shown in the stack trace, but not sure it's possible with Delphi. https://github.com/Qix-/better-exceptions

Spring4D has two releases today! 1.1.6 which is just Delphi 10.2 support for the 1.1 version 1.2 which marks the end of two and a half years of development since the 1.1 release and contains a lot of bugfixes, improvement and new features. In the coming days and weeks I will write more about them.

Hello guys. Does anyone know how to do in Delphi 10.1 Berlin this evaluation method with stars like the one in the image below? Do you know any website or code that teaches you step by step?

Note that dccarm (Android) compiler is broken in 10.2, some code causes F2084 Internal Error: URW1187 (bad is that it doesn't point to the line but goes to unit end so you don't know where is "dangerous" code). "Bad" code: C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Left.Pixels := C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Old.Left.Pixels - P.X + C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Left.Pixels; "Good" code: k := C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Old.Left.Pixels; k := k - P.X + C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Left.Pixels; C.Elements[i].BaseStyle.Left.Pixels := k;

TestInsight 1.1.5 has been released! http://files.dsharp.org/TestInsight/1.1.5.0/TestInsightSetup.zip Apart from Delphi 10.2 support and two small bugfixes it also contains a pretty neat new feature: You can configure a build configuration that TestInsight uses when it compiles and runs your tests. This enables running your tests with special parameters, another host application (for example a code coverage tool tease ) or other things that you can configure in a build configuration. You can set the name of this configuration in the TestInsight options (just hit F6, type TestInsight and press enter). See: https://bitbucket.org/sglienke/testinsight/issues/22

Just installed Tokyo Starter and started it, everything is fine. Then, I installed Test Insight 1.1.4 and IDE won't start anymore, it crashes. It doesn't give any stack trace report, just a crazy amount of AV while loading the IDE (ie, on the splash screen). Removing Test Insight makes the IDE happy again Stefan Glienke Not really sure where to post this btw

Anyone know how to list all the resources defined by name and type in a library or package? I've created a library with multiple images in. Rather than knowing beforehand the available images, I would like to read the list of available at runtime to allow the user to choose which one to load.
