I believe so too, but DeepBlue is worth mentioning, isn't it ? Isn't this evolving too, with never versions, or is it a complete dead project now ? At least it was the first beating the human chess wolrd champion, should be a little honoured IMHO.

Have you checked out the functionality with some tools, like https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/p/bluetooth-le-lab/9n6jd37gwzc8?activetab=pivot:overviewtab https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/p/bluetooth-le-explorer/9n0ztkf1qd98?activetab=pivot:overviewtab https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluetooth_viewer.html https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluetoothcl.html https://sensboston.github.io/BLEConsole/ Of course the Nordic tools should be great too, but thats already developer tools for the MCU's, but they have a lot of helpful tools as well. https://www.nordicsemi.com/Software-and-tools/Development-Tools/nRF-Connect-for-desktop Maybe someone knows better tools for Windows, since I usually work with Android/iOS.

Where is DeepBlue in that list ? Is this just an open-source competition, not comparing the leading engines ?

I assume the "Intel" is an integrated BLuetooth, while for the "Braodcom" you used an external USB-Bluetooth stick, is that correct ?

When I try to set different colors in the IDE, this can be used to set "fake" colors, at least for black color. This should be right to set black background color. Like that: results in "float-like" output: { "colors" : [ { "idiom" : "universal", "color" : { "color-space" : "srgb", "components" : { "alpha" : "1", "blue" : "0", "green" : "0", "red" : "0" } } }, { "idiom" : "universal", "color" : { "color-space" : "srgb", "components" : { "alpha" : "1", "blue" : "0", "green" : "0", "red" : "0" } }, "appearances" : [ { "appearance" : "luminosity", "value" : "dark" } ] } ], "info" : { "version" : 1, "author" : "RAD Studio" } } Anyway, the issue with white background while BG/FG is still the same. I assume it has something to do with Styles and TListView, not the storyboard colors.

I have some issues from time to time, with the LauchScreen, but not only the image. Sine this is maybe all related, I think this could be added in the thread too 1. In one app I have a too small launchscreen icon. The base icon is same size, but it appears only 1/3 of the size on its screen. Have tried to reset settings, re-create project, etc., clear the storybook, change the colors, etc. but it stays the same. While other projects icon looks OK, stretching to fit the whole display, I cannot really see any difference. (but since this behaviour was acceptable, I haven't looked into it much deeper). 2. A newer, and not acceptable behaviour is the white background when an app goes background and foreground again, it starts with a white background screen, until "BecameActive", only then I can reset the screen again. Its not showing the LaunchScreen then, but the current display, and this is "white" instead of normal color. To get a better impression, on the fron page there is a TListView: This is how it should look (and it does when first starts) This is how it looks when background/foreground, until "BecameActive", only after BecameActive I can reset, but thats a well visible flicker when starting. It looks to me that the style or the listview is somewhat affected by background foreground change, since I cannot find any other reason for setting the colors like that. I do use the StyleManager, and setting the style once at startup, usually no need to reset again when BG/FG. What I tried is to set the background colors in many ways, also to force a change, but I want to put them "black" in light and dark themes, like that: I think this was a similar issue here. When I change the colors, Apple seems to require the colors as float (0.0 ... 1.0), but in the .storyboard template I can see a white background (color 1 1 1 1) <resources> <image name="LaunchScreenImage" width="96" height="96"/> <namedColor name="LaunchScreenBackgroundColor"> <color red="1" green="1" blue="1" alpha="1" colorSpace="custom" customColorSpace="sRGB"/> </namedColor> </resources> In the compiled storyboard, this is still the same <resources> <image name="LaunchScreenImage" width="96" height="96"/> <namedColor name="LaunchScreenBackgroundColor"> <color red="1" green="1" blue="1" alpha="1" colorSpace="custom" customColorSpace="sRGB"/> </namedColor> </resources> But additionally, there were LaunchScreenBackgroundColor.colorset definitions, looks as HEX instead of 0...1 { "colors" : [ { "idiom" : "universal", "color" : { "color-space" : "srgb", "components" : { "alpha" : "255", //<=========================== HEX instead of float "blue" : "0", "green" : "0", "red" : "0" } } }, { "idiom" : "universal", "color" : { "color-space" : "srgb", "components" : { "alpha" : "255", //<=========================== HEX instead of float "blue" : "0", "green" : "0", "red" : "0" } }, "appearances" : [ { "appearance" : "luminosity", "value" : "dark" } ] } ], "info" : { "version" : 1, "author" : "RAD Studio" } } That looks like an issue with the RadStudio conversion of those flags HEX instead of float , but even when I handcode the .storyboard files, I cannot really see a difference (maybe because of caching). I try to investigate this further. Maybe the launchimage, the too small icon 1.) and this color issue 2.) were all related somehow, but I cannot really spot the root cause. I hope you can spot the issue here, and has some useful hints.

Well, unexpectedly Apple-M1 did not so bad in emulation. I haven't found many reports on compatibility issues yet, so maybe someone knows more about the Do's and Dont's with this emulator: what can be used, what will crash ? I think no Hypervisor, OK, but what restrictions have normal apps ?

Beside that, what are the latest news about the ARM, Softbank, Apple, Nvidia theatre ? I think this will affect us all, if ARM is in the wrong hands. Then I have to move back to good old Z80

Damn, I missed that fact. Apple is really the hottest sh... Does that mean also VmWare Fusion, Win-10 guest and Rx1041 is running as before ? (No, I cannot believe that, its too much utopia for my, Apple runs out of the box ....)

Good decision. Nonworking LSP and all related stuff is the biggest time killer for me at the moment, I'm looking forward to a behaviour as smooth as VsCode. Waiting for the day when Ctrl+Space, Ctrl+Enter, ErrorInside, debug variables, etc. works 100% reliable.

How is that possible ? I thought PAServer is a Macos binary, on x86, not a Java thingy ? At least I can see dylib's in the package content. Or do you found a new, ARM compatible PAServer somewhere ? I don't think Apple is emulating x86 assembler code on M1, or do they ?

Did you also set the location permissions (fine should be enough, but fine+coarse do no harm) ?

Is there a reliable table somewhere, for the references of different components, platforms, tools, etc., which where used in the IDE ? Would be very good to get an overview about that, to see what references especially could be problematic.

Even if it would not results in any fixes in the final launch. At least you could judge the impact of new versions on your own projects, and try to find workarounds early in time.

Waiting for Christmas eve, ..... lots of gifts, presents and good mood 👼

Hi there, I've tried to patch my Rx10.4.1 Enterprise IDE with the last available patches. One was older, for C++ only, and two new for Delphi LSP and Linux LSP. They all seems to be processed in the same way, I usually restart the IDE before doing such critical tasks. Of course initially all uninstalled, so I can do the selection in the GetIt page: after that, immediately a selection appears: !! I have chosen NO in all cases, to prevent any false automatism or blocked files from the IDE. Then I closed the IDE directly, and a batch command run appears which immediately seems to run another batch file, starting the real installation. !! But beware, before that is startet, the GetIt patch asks for a admin confirmation, in a hidden window: After confirmation, the real batch runs fine, and waits for 3 seconds after finished, to be automatically closed After that, restart the IDE, and the welcome page shows "up to date" While in the IDE's installation path, under _patch-backup, there were all the backup'd files listed As PeterPanino found out, in the German DP, these three folders seems to control the display of "INSTALLED" or "NOT INSTALLED" in the GetIt page. Just renaming these folders will change and control "INSTALLED/NOT INSTALLED", as it seems. With that procedure I've installed all patches without any hazzle so far. Hope that was helpful to you too.

Exactly. Unfortunately I was too lazy to make special effords to get a proper screenshot But I think everyone knows this UAC-thing.

@Andrea Magni Will there be a PDF version too, at PacktPub ? I haven't seen any, only the "pre-order" books.

Thats the way I like to use it too. Unfortunately this is veeeery unreliable in the last versions, so I mainly changed my habits to use right click "Open Files at Cursor", which is not the same convenience. I hope one day the LSP will fix all that, and make "Ctrl+Enter for "Open File at Cursor" great again

Very nice work, would make a lot of sense with chakracore. From my understanding the chakracore project is stopped, although some additions were still done. Maybe you can update us on the status of chakracore, and its current use-cases ? Does it make sense to use it still in new projects ?

If you want to cross segments, the you probably need a central broker, like MQTT provides. But I think the original thread request stay inside a local segment, where UDP would be an option.

Not directly an answer to your question, but maybe some input. https://www.delphipraxis.net/194859-android-delete-wifi.html https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2318310/how-to-call-wi-fi-settings-screen-from-my-application-using-android https://developer.android.com/about/versions/marshmallow/android-6.0-changes.html#behavior-network

No, not in background. But in background you need maybe also other measures to keep Android awake.

@Remy LebeauI think you mean like above, inside an anonymous method.
