@Stéphane Wierzbicki I installed the not-alpha-IDEFixPack now 10.3 works smoothly.

I'll keep using it for the next few days and report back

@Dany Marmur

I've got v.1.29.1 so the menus are a bit different. So I have this:

So, how is that configuration being set up? VSC can not debug without a configuration

@David Hoyle No I did not clean the registry manually so this may be the reason. I am willing to try again so how do I identify the erroneous entries by 10.3? Just delete the keys below \20.0?

I usually install apps using an undelete software but this time I totally forgot it  so can't see what changes the installer does to my system

@Stéphane Wierzbicki Clean installation of 10.3 didn't solve my problem either 

Sad as I was looking forward to use the inline vars

What's wrong with adding many units in the uses clauses?

I've got a big number of units that are very small in general. For example, the interface of one class is declared to a different unit than the implementation.

The number of units may be big but the code is totally manageable.

I am not familiar with VSC at all. I tried in the past to use it with OmniPascal but I can't configure it properly.

So now I have installed OmniPascal and the editor can find the source files (i.e., when I click on a class it locates the code). 

How do I add a configuration for Delphi so I can run the app from inside VSC?

And to clarify something...VSC is only for code editing. There is no visual elements right? Like form designer, etc. 

I hadn't touched 10.3 since my last post. 

I opened the IDE today and after a long period of non-responsiveness, the IDE started working correctly.

I used it for 1 hour and then restarted the IDE and I am again where I was before. So, no I haven't managed to solve it.

I, also, installed the Debug Tools for windows and configured the settings in Processor Explorer as @David Hoyle shows but the symbols do not resolve to function names. I've also checked the guides from Microsoft but I can't make it work either.....

But the symbols are being cached on my hard drive

Seems that 10.3 scared every app on my system 

Yes..that panel with the layouts does not behave correctly. Sometimes, when I minimise the IDE, that panel stays on the screen

Because, in its infinite wisdom, IDE decided you need to brush up your debugging skills 😎

Haha...so it is a skill development exercise; and I thought it was anger management drill

@KodeZwerg Thanks for the answer

Yes I know about the use of Pred with other arguments. I was just wondering for that particular code snippet

Hi,

I am looking at some older code and I see the author uses the following statement:

for i:=0 to Pred(WhateverList.count) do

instead of the usual one:

for i:=0 to WhateverList.count - 1 do

Does it make any real difference or it's just a personal preference?

Thanks

i will try to load the symbols but I am annoyed...don't get why I need to debug the IDE...

Ok, this is what the stack shows when I type in a character in code panel:

In this phase, the IDE is not responding...

Doesn't look very helpful, does it?

@David Hoyle You mean this app, right? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer

Is the call stack what appears in the bottom panel when I select the process?

It's amazing...I reinstalled Rio 3-4 times, cleaned registries, Windows and all that and when I open a project I press a key in the code and the CPU jumps to 60-70. After 2 mins, the IDE becomes responsive. It's impossible to work in that

@pyscripter Have you got any additional components installed apart from those that come with the IDE?

Is anyone getting something like that? I have disabled ErrorInsight and still get this behavious. Also, I have installed RFUnit but the experimental features are off

Thank you

Hi,

as the title says....I can't find the step out button to add to the toolbar 

Ohhh...under the theme button.....hmmmm....I think they cleaned the GUI too much 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Now that the moved the drop down menu with the desktop layouts in the title bar, how do I save my own layout?

I can't find the buttons now😤🙂😤🙂

I just checked. The server is back on again

Although the getit managaer failed I can open the IDE. It can't do anything but it loads. 

Would it be ok to use the GetIt from within IDE to complete the installation or I need to uninstall it and reinstall again?

Nah..I will use the web installer.

BTW, it is very comforting to know that the product manager is on the same boat 🙂

Ah ok then....nothing wrong with my system....😤😤
