Doing their best to avoid an even bigger disaster? -
After getting tired of clicking the wrong one, I created some simple taskbar icons for Delphi with an apparent version shown. Currently there are icons for Delphi 10 Seattle Delphi 10.1 Berlin Delphi 10.2 Tokyo Delphi 10.3 Rio Delphi 10.4 Sydney Delphi 11 Alexandria This is an example for Delphi 11: And this is what my taskbar now looks like: All these icons are available on GitHub: https://github.com/UweRaabe/DelphiIcons

Massive (!) reduction of supported Android devices in 10.4
stewag64 replied to stewag64's topic in Cross-platform
64 Bit. When compiling for the store, Delphi automatically creates a bundle (.aab) that includes also the 32 bit version, if exists. -
Thanks for the clarification. Just in case anybody has got problems understanding what Uwe wrote: Eigenschaften -> Properties Verknüpfungen -> Shortcuts Anderes Symbol -> Change Icon

Yes, you need also 32bit platform in order to target older devices. -

... and make sure your app bundle includes both 64 AND 32 bit platforms. -
Delphi 11.1 is available

I posted a new issue since the issue occurs with the release build and my other issue had extra problems that may or may not be related. https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-37603 I have narrowd this down to the Linking\Debug Information setting - turning that on in the Release config causes the same issue.. seems like a memory corruption issue to me (the app runs fine outside the IDE). -

I am unable to debug my main project using Rad Studio 11.1 - I get random entry point not found errors(runs fine outside the ide or in Release config, but of course then breakpoints don't work). Embarcadero knew about the error but here we are, yet another version unusable for me. Beyond frustrated. -

How many devices? -
The same thing they always do: GREAT WORK. We all owe a lot to them. THANK YOU, beta testers. But, as we've seen over the years, releases from EMB still seem to have regressions. No?

We have no idea as it's most probably sealed by NDA agreement. -

What do you think all the beta testers did during the last weeks? -
And now comes the long-standing debate we have with ourselves: "Do I take the risk and download it? Or do I wait until some other poor schmoe becomes an unwitting tester" I'm soooo tempted to give it a try!

The advantage of TFDMacro.AsIdentifier is, that it automatically quotes it according to the current DBMS.

I had such project running for some 2 years around 2008-2010, but it didn't gain much interest from the public. My hardware was based around one of the first Intel dual core Atom ITX based boards and had a M3-ATX power supply (this gracefully shut down the PC when you turned of the car engine. The earlier models just cut the power to the PC, which wasn't favourable). All put into a special ITX case looking just like an external amp. I can't remember the screen though, it was a motorized touchscreen with a blind front when closed. It opened automatically when the engine was started. The audio output was connected to a 4 channel amp with a subwoofer and actually sounded awesome. The soundcard on the Atom board was miles ahead for what the default headunit of the car provided, and with 5.1 separated channel support. It eventually got custom graphics from an actual designer, but he moved on to a commercial CarPC project soon after because the graphics framework couldn't compete with the smooth animations Android offered and he didn't like the speed of development (hey, it was a 1-man project in spare time). It was based on the Graphics32 library with -I think- the BASS audio library for playback of audio on multiple channels. Due to licensing of some of the external components, I'd chosen to provide it for free, although it was not opensourced. It had a plugin system with a couple of plugins for interior/exterior temperature monitoring (using the USB-Temper modules), displaying USB GPS receiver data, navigation using Garmin for PCs hosted in a window locked in a specific location, external signals (e.g. to connect steering wheel buttons), video playback, a USB FM radio receiver, ELM327 OBD-II interface, and some more stuff I can't remember. A front/rear camera plugin was also in development (can't remember if I ever finished this one.. the available webcams were quite horrible in low-light conditions, but I think I got some acceptable results using a Microsoft VX800). It also provided a Jukebox mode for the music playback where it tried to find music in the same genre you're currently playing. Unfortunately, the website I had for this is now defunct and mp3car.com doesn't seem to be in existence anymore either. I stopped developing it due to lack of interest from the public and the introduction of Android based headunits. The world moved on to those things, instead of Car PC's, understandably. But maybe I can dig up the code for this, I'll go look for it tonight.. might be a fun project to revive, although I don't have as much time for it anymore. I did find some of the earlier screenshots of it though (before it got more professional looking graphics).

A table name cannot be treated as a parameter. Instead you can use a macro like this: DELETE FROM &TableName and then set the actual table name with MacroByName.AsIdentifier := DestinationTableName;

Hi Francois, After much frustration and playing around I have figured out what the cause of this behaviour is. I had added the 'Templates' shortcut (from the View customize menu) button on one of the toolbars. When this button is located on any toolbar, then this behaviour is experienced. I the removed the 'Templates' button from the toolbar and the behaviour is now as expected. So to reproduce... 1. Customize any toolbar. 2. Select the 'Commands' tab. 3. Scroll to the 'View' menu. 4. Drag the 'Templates' item to any toolbar. 5. Close the customization tool. 6. Click in the object inspector edit box and type in any component that has the letter 'e' anywhere in it. As soon as you type the letter 'e', the templates selection window is launched. In fact you can just type the letter 'e' into the object inspector edit box and you will see the same behaviour. For now I am leaving the templates shortcut off of any toolbar. In any case it is not something that I use that often but convenient to have on a toolbar. Hope this helps anyone else experiencing this issue. Obviously it is something that Embarcadero will address for their next patch/update. Regard, Christian.

Parnassus Bookmarks for Delphi 11 Alexandria?
Uwe Raabe replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Yeah, I know. Unfortunately one can only do so much as a beta tester, but the results are nevertheless far from doing nothing. One really has a chance to make a change. -

The entire product sometimes feels like that. <🙁> And the website's erratic availability definitely feels like that. -

Don't you think that could be seen as a bit rude by the beta testers working on it for quite some weeks now? I mean, as long as you have an active subscription you are welcome to participate in the beta and weed out all the things itching you.
