After adding call stack logging I have determined that the error occurs in FMX.Forms TFormBorder.GetSupported. The issue may be related to custom styles, which I am using on some forms. A similar question was asked previously. App produces an exception on target computers

Apart from the myriad of other applications that aren't about containers

Hi All I recently did a presentation to the Australian Delphi User Group (ADUG) over zoom - the presentation was recorded and uploaded to youtube - thought it might be worth sharing here 😉 I talked a bit about devops in general, then Continuous Integration and Automated Builds, before showing Continua CI using MSBuild (and a bit of FinalBuilder), running a build, running unit tests etc.

I love Continua CI and FinalBuilder. Massive time-savers!

As a reaction to one of his answers during Q&A I wrote a blog post. Having said that and personally loving generics for various use cases (as shown in the blog post) there are also things that are solved sub optimal - which I also wrote about. Also if you have used generics in C# then you will likely miss co- and contravariance - oh, look, I also wrote about that. If you are going really fancy with generics and code that uses RTTI you have to be aware about some percularities - guess what: wrote about it. Now because in generics you basically have the lowest common denominator and we are lacking quite some ways to specify some traits of the supported types via constraints there are several things that you cannot do or have to fall back to indirections: most common example is using comparer interfaces for generic sorting algorithm or hashtables. That is mostly where a naively implemented generic algorithm might be slower than some handcrafted code for the specific type unless you heavily optimize for various cases (as I have done in Spring).

Do not worry everything is going to work perfectly in the new 64 bit IDE.

Under Tools - Configure Tools add a new entry named Kill LSP with the following settings: Code: Program: taskkill Parameters: /IM DelphiLSP.exe /F
