Best guess, with a bug report, Emb will fix the pascal unit, but not change the compiler. But it needs to be logged first, no need to ask anybody 🙂

Or, more simply, just detect a function call involving an "array of const" argument preceded by a string argument, and then warn if the string argument is not a literal.

Of course. If someone wants to pay me my going rate, I'd stop everything and create one. As it stands, I hope to find time to work on creating one. The million+ lines of code that don't belong to me can't just be posted in attlasian's system.

Personally, I create .pkg files - using the create installer function of Mosco.

FYI, you can create and use a VCL TBitmap in a worker thread, you just have to lock the bitmap's Canvas to prevent the main thread from releasing the bitmap's GDI resources. The new TControl.RaiseOnNonMainThreadUsage property was introduced in 11.0 Alexandria: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Alexandria/en/What's_New#Threading_safety_improvement However, it is currently only being used by the VCL when a TWinControl's window is created, not when it is accessed. Fortunately, there is a new TControl.CheckNonMainThreadUsage() method that is public, so you can call it for your own purposes before you access a UI control's members.

RegEx?

Indeed there are: Set TControl.RaiseOnNonMainThreadUsage := True This will raise an EInvalidOperation when CheckNonMainThreadUsage is called for a control. This is automatically done inside CreateWnd.

Can I participate with a program written 25 years ago? https://github.com/MarcoDelphiBooks/MasteringDelphi5/tree/master/WebBonus/22/MINES

Edit: as was pointed out by someone else, this non-native speaker may not mean what I mean by "new architecture." But here's what I was referring to: 42 minute mark. Listen carefully where he says there will be a "new architecture" in the next major release.

Me Either.

Other companies (e.g. Steema (TeeChart)) have offered me remote assistance via TeamViewer (their choice, not mine) with a compilation / installation problem. Embarcadero could do something similar at least for customers with subscription and "Platinum support" to track down this annoying problem. We do not have Platinum support, but if we had and could reproduce this problem reliably, I would insist on something like this. Embarcadero is always bragging that they have some large enterprise customers. Customers like this should be able to pressure them to get their act together.
