I have posted some designs for the Delphi 10.3 T-Shirt competion:- https://community.embarcadero.com/competitions/17-rio-t-shirt/490-10-3-rough-design-1 https://community.embarcadero.com/competitions/17-rio-t-shirt/491-10-3-rough-design-2 https://community.embarcadero.com/competitions/17-rio-t-shirt/492-celebrate-10-3 What do you folks think?

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!

Hello !!! I've finally fixed the few bugs on my (Mine)Craft translation that lead to a blank screen...incredible how 2 line of code can completely mess up everything :) https://github.com/tothpaul/DelphiCraft https://github.com/tothpaul/DelphiCraft

have you ever distributed an ios app built with radStudio via Apple Enterpirse Account. At the moment I am using testfligth, but my client has an Enterprise Account and I have not found recent documentation on how to do it, can you give me some advice?

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?

DP on my phone. Fast and Functional. Even more functional than the G+ app, IMO. https://en.delphipraxis.net

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!

"Network Unreachable" when tethering. I am running the BDShoppingList project in "C:\Users\Public\Documents\Embarcadero\Studio\19.0\Samples\Object Pascal\RTL\Tethering\BDShoppingList" It runs well in Windows but when I run the Android target I get this exception.

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 ...

Using Delphi 10.2.3 to consume a SOAP web service. I can send my request and raw response in coming in fine. Problem is my Response object in my code is always nil. I could not figure where to look to start solving this. Following stackoverflow post did not get much attention either. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52976096/soap-response-class-not-assigned-nil Searching for help in here now. Thanks. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52976096/soap-response-class-not-assigned-nil

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. Isn't there anybody at Embarcadero who checks blog posts before they go life? https://community.embarcadero.com/blogs/entry/open-source-friday-with-delphi https://community.embarcadero.com/blogs/entry/open-source-friday-with-delphi

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!
