RTTI and EXE file size: how to shrink your executable 2 times
Kryvich replied to Kryvich's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
I found a few more units with RTTI and was able to further reduce the utilities from the Localizer project. Now the numbers are: kdlscan.exe was 742 400 bytes, now 355 840 bytes, -52% lngupdate.exe was 727 040 bytes, now 277 504 bytes, -62% I also tested one of my applications with and without RTTI. Application: Windows 32-bit utility, VCL, memory tables, RichEdit components, string processing. I measured only the speed of text processing, not the speed of launching the application. I have to say, in my case there is no gain in performance after the removal of RTTI. Test Application Executable File Size, bytes Processing time, best run, s RTTI enabled 4 777 472 62 RTTI disabled 3 300 864 61 Difference, % -31% -2% Probably, the tested program is too small, and can fit in the processor's cache entirely in both cases.- 16 replies

If you decide to go with TDictionary<string, TYourData>, here is examples how to create, initialize, use and free it: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/CodeExamples/Tokyo/en/Talk:Generics_Collections_TDictionary_(Delphi).

First of all, you need to set your build configuration to Debug (Projects view | Build Configurations - double click Debug), and enable debugging options (menu Project | Options | Building | Delphi Compiler | Compiling): Optimization: False Stack Frames: True Debugging: all settings to True Runtime errors: all 3 settings to True Perhaps after that this error will appear earlier than when you close the application. Usually you do not need to initialize arrays - they are initialized with zeros automatically. How the arDeptsTotal array is declared? Is it 0-based or 1-based? Based on the code snippets you provided, the TList<TYourData> or TDictionary<string, TYourData> class might be more appropriate for you. But the good old array should works too.

@Lars Fosdal RTTI can be selectively enabled for the classes that really need it.- 16 replies

Microsoft Windows Beta UTF-8 support for Ansi API could break things
Kryvich replied to Tommi Prami's topic in Windows API
Is it affect programs, written in Unicode enabled Delphi versions (Delphi 2009 and above)? -
RTTI and EXE file size: how to shrink your executable 2 times
Kryvich replied to Kryvich's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
@David Heffernan How you think: is RTTI information concentrated in one place of an executable file, or scattered around it? Open any EXE file and find the answer. I would prefer that the RTTI information be in a separate segment (resource) of the EXE file, and preferably in a separate file. But you are right about performance: it is better to test, and then draw conclusions.- 16 replies

Kryvich replied to Kryvich's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
@stijnsanders I do not know such special settings. But you can use conditional compiler directives to leave RTTI for the Debug build: {$IFDEF RELEASE} {$WEAKLINKRTTI ON} {$RTTI EXPLICIT METHODS([]) PROPERTIES([]) FIELDS([])} {$ENDIF}- 16 replies

IDE hangs on code completion, find declaration, parameters tooltip.
Kryvich replied to vhanla's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
@Bill Meyer That's the whole point: if Embarcadero can get the IDE to work on a such project, then CodeInsight will work flawlessly on projects with a well-designed architecture. -
Speed up reading multiple text files
Kryvich replied to dummzeuch's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
A memory table with indexing and filtering (Filter := "like 'bl*'") would help. If you haven't TkbmMemTable, there is TFDMemTable and TClientDataSet even in the Community Edition. Use BeginBatch, EndBatch to speed up the loading. Of course, you can write a low level code and try to squeeze the maximum speed, as advised above. -
I tried MvvmStarterKit\Demo\VCL\MVVMDemo.dproj in Delphi 10.3. TYPE_KIND_TO_VALUE_TYPE should be appended with TgoValueType.Unsupported); // tkMRecord Demo program has memory leaks. The latest commit to https://github.com/DelphiPraxis/MvvmStarterKit dated October, 9. I suppose you forgot to push your Delphi 10.3 update to GitHub.
-
A demo program that demonstrates the bug would help the community to help you.

So now (among other) we have FireDAC - a DAC for Delphi packed with advanced features, and the lightning fast Zeos - a free and open source lib. Both libraries can work in conjunction with mORMot. Having a choice is always good.

GetIt: missing all the TurboPower component
Kryvich replied to gkobler's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
It takes time to update and test all components in Delphi 10.3. In GetIt in 10.2, I see 202 packages right now, and in 10.3 - 55 packages (at the start it was 34). -
Speed up reading multiple text files
Kryvich replied to dummzeuch's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
Alternatively you can try a memory table and compare it with TStringList. I recommend TkbmMemTable. -
What is the difference between this kit and https://github.com/grijjy/MvvmStarterKit, in short?
-
The Zeos test results are astounding. What about the capabilities of this library? Does it support the on-demand rows fetching, rows pagination, delayed fetching (to postpone a BLOB and nested datasets loading)? FireDAC can do it: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Tokyo/en/Fetching_Rows_(FireDAC)

Very good library to test the CodeInsight and ErrorInsight features. -
Rio has a broken REST Library
Kryvich replied to Jacek Laskowski's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
As I understand WinHttpQueryHeaders should return an Unicode string, so LSize should be even. But we can foresee any variant, allocating enough space for the result string: SetLength(Result, (LSize+1) div SizeOf(Char)); -
Rio has a broken REST Library
Kryvich replied to Jacek Laskowski's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
Before the second call of WinHttpQueryHeaders there is a check: if GetLastError <> ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER then raise ENetHTTPException.CreateResFmt(...); It means that the call of function WinHttpQueryHeaders occurs only if GetLastError = ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER. According to the API: If the function fails and ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_BUFFER is returned, lpdwBufferLengthspecifies the number of bytes that the application must allocate to receive the string. -
@FredS No, it din't work for me. Can you find CodeSiteExpressPkg260.bpl in "c:\Program Files (x86)\Raize\CS5\Bin" ? Update: I found this file here: "c:\Program Files (x86)\Raize\CS5\Deploy\Win32\", copied it to "c:\Program Files (x86)\Raize\CS5\Bin" and now CodeSite works! https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-21763

I used the Migration Tool to move my syntax highlighting from 10.2.3 to 10.3.

Kryvich replied to Jacek Laskowski's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
Weird. Waiting for your findings. The good thing is that CE comes with REST sources, so a competent enthusiast can help find a bug in the library. -
So MySQL database + FireDAC- mORMot-Windows service could be compiled and run even with Community Edition, if the database and the service are located on the same machine.

Android Z-Order, Native Controls, and 10.3 Rio
Kryvich replied to Mohammed Nasman's topic in Cross-platform
The main goal in 10.3 was to introduce Z-Order. So we can now place controls over video as example. Broader support of native controls planned for the first half of 2019, for 10.3.x updates. https://community.embarcadero.com/article/news/16638-rad-studio-august-2018-roadmap- 6 replies
