It can be downloaded in different formats (PDF. EPUB, MOBI)

With an chromium based edge, all browsers will support modern web standards this problem will cease. Mozilla and others work on support Webassembly besides web/browser. This can became the better version of java (vm) and .net (il).

Never trust an embt docu.

Seems no problem for embt. If you need it earlier you can apply for the beta.

Not really. OpenGL isn't as good as Vulkan and MoltenGL isn't free as MoltenVK. Now FMX uses: DX11 on Windows, OpenGL on macOS (and Linux inofficially), OpenGL ES on Android and iOS. Instead of a new implementation: DX12 on Windows, Metal on macOS and iOS, Vulkan on Android and Linux it would be better to concentrate on one solution.

The better thing would be switching to Vulkan. One solution for all platforms (Windows, Linux, Android: native, macOS and ios via MoltenVK (included in Vulkan SDK).

At the moment the parsers for the code completion and error inside from the ide differ from the parsers of the compilers.

Which version of delphi?

Have a look at Image32. Maybe it's better than the standard jpeg support. https://github.com/graphics32/graphics32

@Roland__K MS has started to backpedal their strategy.

We aren't their target market.

If everyone will do this than delphi will be history immediately.

Or the hope more developers would migrate to the more expensive editions.

Perhaps employees. But the decision makers beeing responsible don't take the steps needed.

Because they see no need for impovement here, i don't theink the product would be much better. This wouldn't change much. There's seems no need to invest for earning money. Business isn't to create tools but only to earn more money with less effort.

But you cannot survive just with legacy! The expenses for maintenance would be copable when development would be steady in cadence with the plattforms. It is a great problem when there is the need for "reaction" in hassle. EMBT have ti build a homogenous platform with one front end (compiler) per language and one back end per platform. The development should be decoupled ( compiler, code gen, runtime, ide).

Prior to release of 10.3 it was scheduled for it.

I know. But there's is still no date for it. EMBT doesn't smash themself with glory. They should start to develop with availibilty and not with the discontinuation of the previous version. Version 10 of macOS ( MacOS X, OSX, macOS) was 64 Bit from the beginning!

But the next version of macOS doesn't support it anymore. macOS mojave juust warns when starting 32 bit apps. In this case "only" the distribution in the play store is affected. In macOS the apps will stop working!

Because the macOS 64-Bit version scheduled for 10.3 is still missing.

No. Anymore. Only on mobile ARC is used (will also change in the future).
