Hi, I made a small SQL client, I called it "smartFB" for Firebird / Interbase. It's a beta version as I needed it for some colleagues who do not have the IBExpert license. If it can be useful you can download it at the following link: https://www.genius-lab.it/synaLogin/DownloadApp?appId=11 If you try it let me know your impressions, I made it with Delphi / Firedac, inside the installer there are already the dll of FB2.5 and FB3.0 and the classic gds32. It already provides updates for new versions. https://www.genius-lab.it/synaLogin/DownloadApp?appId=11

Ok, so they're having the T-Shirt contest for Rio. Then, I predict they'll release 10.3 shortly before Thanksgiving...

I'm working with TMSAdvMemo. I'd like to have a find / replace dialog that supports regular expressions. They have the default find / replace dialogs built-in, and a couple of more advanced dialogs that aren't fully implemented. I'm not attached to using the AdvMemo, but I like it because of the simple syntax highlighting for different languages. (We need Pascal and SQL at a minimum for this project.) Does anybody know of a fully-implemented find / replace dialog that supports regex of some sort?

Hi, the new iPhones XS & XSMax don't have a standard 40 character UDID anymore. Therefore, Tokyo can't compile and deploy apps to those devices even if you have a valid provisioning profile for those devices. Also iTunes does not provide the UDID anymore for those new devices. The new UDID format for those is in the form nnnnnnnn-000NNNNNNNNNNNNN Then the compiler complains and stops deployment. Anyone found a workaround? Thanks Steve

Fellow Delphi Developers! StyleControls VCL 4.15 just released! http://www.almdev.com What's new: * added: TscGPPageViewer control - transparent page control with pages, which inherited from TscGPPanel (see new CustomGPUWP_MultiView demo) * added: new shape styles for TscGPButton, TscGPGlyphButton and TscGPCharGlyphButton controls (scgpLeftLine, scgpRightLine, scgpTopLine, scgpBottomLine) * added: ScaleInt, ScaleDouble methods to the TscStyledForm component (scale values unsing scale factor of current form) * added: TscGPPanel.BlurBackgorund and TscGPPanel.BlurBackgorundAmount properties (now background of the panel can be with blur effect) * added: High-DPI UWP MultiView Demo (UWP demo template, which helps you to create Modern Application with MultiView UI) Regards, Almediadev

I would like to create an android application that use mobile connectors. However I am just using the Delphi community edition since I am still a student. There is no datasnap rest server component available for this community edition. Is there any other ways to use mobile connectors besides datasnap rest server? I cant find any other ways so i really need help. Thanks in advance!

I'd like your opinion on button design. The top "i" is a TImage. The bottom is a TSpeedbutton. I think I prefer this look. I don't like the look of the square border on the TSpeedbutton, but I do like that it changes in appearance when the user clicks or mouses over it. What's the community's opinion on using the TImage, even though it's a "flat" button. Any feedback? (I'm not going to use a custom component or 3rd party component for these...) PS Can a TImage have transparency so that the faint white background on my "i" doesn't appear? What are the requirements for that? File type? Lower left hand pixel? Or what?

Interestingly, I've just for my new iPhone XR today and the UUID format has changed from my iPhone 8. Worse still, Delphi Berlin doesn't work properly and fails with an error if I try to debug onto it. Looks like I'll be keeping my iPhone 8 until 10.3 is ready!

Why Delphi-PRAXiS? When looking for a new home for G+ Delphi Developers, I was looking at three criteria. Stability, Accessibility and Independence. Yes, I did consider self-hosting, but from personal experience, I know that it can be a good deal of work, so if I could, I'd very much preferred to avoid that. I looked around at numerous social media solutions, but they all have their share of good points and bad points. MeWe was a good candidate, but the lack of exposure of group posts to search engines, was a big issue. When I got a tip that DP would be willing to create an international version of their German forum, I knew that it was the place. They have a good reputation for uptime and stability, independence and good posting quality - and it is better to join forces with an existing community, than trying to go it alone. More willing and helping hands, of course is a bonus to us all. Daniel has been very forthcoming and tailored the forums to my liking, and he is very eas

You already know that G+ is being “sunsetted” in August 2019. You already know that there has been a search for a new home. You already know that The Delphi Developers have been told that “A Move Is Coming”! So, without further drama - here we go: Once upon a time… in 2002, to be more precise, a German Delphi forum was created. Now, 16 years later, they branch out and open an international edition of their home, where us that are not literate in Deutsch, can use the lingua franca of coding - English, and where they welcome the horde of homeless Delphi Developers from G+ to keep coming together. Here is an introduction in the words of the admin, Daniel R. Wolf: The German Delphi-PRAXiS started in June 2002. With me as the administrator and some volunteers as moderators, it became the largest Delphi-community in the German-speaking area. This project is located on a dedicated server that only runs this forum - now the English one too - and my personal blog @ www.danielwolf.eu . Nothing

Originally shared by Thomas Mueller (dummzeuch) > Delphi developers are loners (usually) and do not understand the benefits of team play. This is because they do not know how to work and are afraid of difficulties. Many years of experience have taught them to work in this way and now it is very difficult to change. < Just to recap: His intended audience are Delphi developers and in the first paragraph he is already insulting them. That's a good way to get people to listen. NOT! I'm sure he didn't mean to insult us, but I'm not sure what the intention was. Maybe it's a language issue.

I so so much would LOVE to have the Chrome-like commands "Close all windows to the right" in the IDE. Super-lazy question, i know, but i'm not well versed with all the different QC options. Any issue i can vote for? Any plugin having this already? My second wish (now that i'm tackling huge DFMs) is to be able to tell the IDE to close ancestors of a form so i can switch to "Display as Text" without having to "Close All" and re-open the project. Have to do that a lot ATM :( Regards!

One day until moving day! Friday morning at 0800 CET, the doors will open. Watch this space for more information. How to prepare: - Decide on your new username. Pseudonyms are OK, but personally I appreciate it when people use their real names - Decide on which email account you will sign up with. It will NOT be possible to log in with a Social Media account - Bring your own Avatar (A photo or something symbolic to represent you) - Prepare a little "About you" text that you would put on your profile - Bring a constructive attitude and a little patience and prepare for some initial adjustments to the forums (if so will be needed) - Think about who else you would like to see joining our new home, and give them a heads up. - If you have an open question here or on MeWe, prepare to repost it in the appropriate location I don't know about you guys, but I am excited!

Just got a brand new shiney Huawei P20 Pro phone. Quite a good beast, but when I try to debug programmes with Rad/Delphi, it compiles and links the programme, copies it to the phone, starts it running, then sits on the Delphi screen with the "Run" window. Nothing happens. When I press "Cancel", I get the message "Cannot start gdbserver on port 62311 (or whatever - I can't remember) - port already in use. Any ideas about how to get gdbserver running happily again please?

UberPDF Plus Render, View and more We are pleased to announce our next update will include PDF rendering and viewing options followed with many additional capabilities (such as interactive form fill and editing). The release of this update is expected very shortly. This initial release will support Microsoft Windows® x32 and x64 desktop, to be quickly followed with support our other platforms. Pricing will increase substantially to mirror the capabilities delivered. Current customers will be grandfathered at the current rate for existing licenses. This is a forward looking statement. Those wanting to secure licenses at the current pricing model should consider any potential risk involved. We believe this risk to be very low. https://uberpdf.org Joe & Lynda Code4Sale, LLC

I've posted the code for the simple test application previously, but can provide if necessary. Basically a function in a DYLIB is passed a string parameter, it returns TRUE with an OUT variable of another string which proves that the data went into the DYLIB function and returned out. The function template: function _say_Hello(Hello: string; out ReturnString: string): boolean; cdecl; external TestDLL; I have simple showmessage() statements in the calling application for things like onCloseQuery and onClose etc, these all show, everything WORKS as it should until the application closes(onCloseQuery executed, onClose executed, and about half a second to a second after everything shuts down the problem report pops up). I've put the google drive link to the error log. Basically I get this: Crashed Thread: 0 Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV) Exception Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at 0x00000000bf7ffffc Exception Note

I've been using the Python optimization routines from scipy quite a bit, they appear to work well. I'd like to create a Delphi GUI to make it easier for non-Python users to access the routines for model fitting. I'm aware of Python4Delphi, which I've used in the past to host the Python dll to run simple scripts. I'm not sure until I try, whether this will alllow me to access scipy, presumably it will. I was wondering if any one has other suggestions before I dive in and whether this would even work?

I have a form (Fire Monkey) with multiple frames on it. I would like to execute some common code (same code for all frames) when the focus enters a frame and exists a frame. Can anyone assist with some example please? I tried setting the OnEnter and OnExit in the Frame definition and also on the Frame instances, but none worked. If I set it on a control on the Frame it works, but I need to know when a frame becomes focused, irrespective of the controls on it. In short, using this, I want to know where in my form the focus is at any point in time. I need to load the frames at runtime, so I will need to link the events also at runtime I think.

Hi all I'm in the process of pulling the MS AppCenter frameworks into my Firemonkey iOS app and (eventually) managed to link in and build a sample app correctly. I now need to "register" the framework but struggling to convert the swift code to Delphi. The issue is the need to pass an array of what look like class instances but I can't figure it out. When it converted the headers, it didn't expose a "self" method into the equivalent Delphi class - not sure if that's part of my troubles... Any help would be appreciated as I'm so close to getting this working! Swift: MSAppCenter.start("secret key", withServices:[ MSAnalytics.self, MSCrashes.self ]) Pascal header: { class } procedure start(appSecret: NSString; withServices: NSArray); cdecl;

Spring4D IoC and specific singleton I have a generic interface to write data to the database: IDBStorer. This interface can write data to any pre-defined table (generates inserts and updates). I would like the group of objects that saves, for example, orders, to use one instance of this interface, but configured to store orders. Completely in other place, another group of objects saves, for example, car routes, also uses the IDBStorer interface, but with a completely different configuration. Therefore, I would need to resolve the interface from the factory using some type of "order" or "route" and to get the same instance for each "route" request, but different than when I resolve for "order". Something like this: OrdersStorer := Container.Resolve .NamedSingleton('orders'); RouteStorer := Container.Resolve .NamedSingleton('route'); or better by factory: TStorerFactory = reference to function(aStorerIdentifier : string) : IDBStorer

I am considering scraping his place - this place is a goldmine of info I have an engine that works, and I did it (twice?) for our google community. It grabs the threads too, drilling down till it reaches the end (and grabs the original off site post if applicable). It can grab the text, and can also make bitmaps. The posts could (in theory) be moved to a new location. At worst, indexed into a DB. I really don't need the info, so I would probably need some sort of incentive to do it, (or someone else could code it). It's a lot of work. My lovely wife once had some fun arranging the articles into a google like view. You can try my little shoddy job at the link below, by tying in something like "raspberry pi" or "Joe". https://search.code4sale.com/sbcgplus/search.cgi

The PID of the OSX process is 36193 (confirmed on the Mac). I've tried show system processes, but that makes no difference. As you can see, the last available PID to attach to is 35717, but my app on the deployment Mac has a PID of 36193. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong, how to fix the situation where the PID for my app is displayed on the dev (windows) site?

Originally shared by Thomas Mueller (dummzeuch) In Part 1 I was ranting about input validation, now it’s about form sizes.

Hello! Anyone's got a clue on this? I have a comparer: CompareFrequencies : TComparison ; then I initialise it: CompareFrequencies := function( Left,Right: TCharFrequency ): Integer begin Result := Left.Frequency - Right.Frequency; end; Berlin doesn't like this and spits out: [dcc32 Error] AR.BApp.Encryption.pas(137): E2010 Incompatible types: 'System.Generics.Defaults.TComparison ' and 'Procedure' Which clearly seems a lie to me. Opinions?

Hey guys, i want use background color for ListViewItem data field and i can't find solution, can someone help me?

Just a tip for anybody who works with very large files, like VM and such... I recently bought an external SSD drive that plugs into a USB3 plug, and they absolutely SCREAM! I've got some VM files that are 70-130 GB in size, and it would take 2-3 hours to back them up to external HDDs, especially on Windows. I don't know why, but they start out with a nice transfer rate at around 100 Mbps then slow down. Windows 10 is horrible with this. I got a 500MB Samsung T5 SSD device, and it lets me backup and restore these huge VM files in 4-6 MINUTES!!! It's unfricking believable! WD has a similar device that's 512 GB with similar performance. I've been curious about getting an internal SSD and mounting it inside of an external chassis, but I haven't had good luck with transfer rates on external devices. So I don't trust the specs on them. The funny thing is, the vendors seem to be targeting certain capacity devices as their "sweet spot". These 500-512 GB de

Respected development company: Canvas throws exceptions For Arc(), ArcTo(), AngleArc(), Chord(), Pie(), PolyBezier(), PolyBezierTo(). CopyRect(), and BrushCopy() totally fail. Support Reply (from the owner): "Yeah, we know bout that" "We can't implement all APIs." There is a big difference between "can't" and "won't". Converting Windows GDI calls is not rocket science. I know that. I have been it for 33 or so years (since the Windows 0.8 beta - 1986 ish?) Forwarding a GDI bezier to some other API is total child's play. Seriously, you have three points to send (and perhaps the previous point). Almost ever display driver has a bezier function. PolyBezier is just sending multiple Bezier curves. No Bezier function? Use another kind of spine. No other kind of Spine? Use a polygon. No polygon? Use lines. No Lines, use pixels, no pixels? OK, thats workable, send ASCII art. Point is, the support reply was total bullsh*t. They may not be

How do I get Platform Assistant 10.3.1.15 for Windows? I need to debug my Windows app on another Windows computer, but it fails with a "version mismatch". My Delphi 10.2 update 3 requires PA 10.3.1.15, but the one included in the same Delphi installation is 10.2.1.13... Also the latest version I can download here is that version: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Tokyo/en/Installing_the_Platform_Assistant_on_Windows Did I miss something? http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Tokyo/en/Installing_the_Platform_Assistant_on_Windows

I was working on a Delphi Application when all of a sudden in my Rad Studio i started to get these alerts. I know that Rad Studio uses the IE Browser to post community information as well as the documentation but this is really bizarre. Marco Cantu maybe you can help me out on why this is happening only in Rad Studio.

PC Crashed Looking For Recommendation on New System My PC Dell Windows 10 PC crashed last night. It's the only development environment I had. I'm looking for recommendations on a new machine. I want to do FMX cross-application stuff. I've heard several people have a Mac setup with virtual windows to run Delphi. This sounds very useful for a cross-application development system. Please give me your recommendations for what type of Mac machine along with the hardware and software specs I would need. Thank you.

I wrote a series on practical UI design - how to go from a mockup or first draft to a clear, understandable, modern UI. It covers design principles, what it means to be 'intuitive', user confusion, presenting data, control interaction, a recipe to follow when making a dialog to get standard behaviour and look & feel, and more. I expect the topic will be ongoing, I'll expand it further over time, but for the time being this series is complete. https://community.embarcadero.com/blogs/entry/dave-s-thoughts-on-ui-design-index https://community.embarcadero.com/blogs/entry/dave-s-thoughts-on-ui-design-index

Hi, all. What are the legal risks of using FluentUI (Ribbon) in a Delphi-made software? I won't use the Ribbon controls shipped with Delphi but https://github.com/turbopack/ribbonframework I knew there was a licence that we can't use anymore. Thank you all for your answers.

Hi, I try to install JCL Core with Delphi 10.1 but getting nowhere. The background is that my team have been using D2007 with an old version of JCL Core for a long time. We use JCL only for log callstacks in log-file in case of exception. Now we decided to upgrade to Delphi 10.1 Berlin. I then discovered that callstack was full of garbage when compile with Delphi 10.1. So I try to upgrade. I cloned git:// github.com/project-jedi/jcl.git (version 2.7) with git to C:\Attracs\jcl Clicked install.bat A window appears I agree conditions Click install Are you sure -> yes Installation finished in half second. This makes me suspicious. What should happen ? Previously we just had a folder with JCL-source to build from. I don't even know what version the old one is. What is the recommended way to do this? I don't find much info. Regards Roland Bengtsson

Is anyone know what's happened to DelphiForFun and Gary ?
