    InterBase or Firebird?

    1) DB admin features - PostgreSQL 2) DB developer features - PostgreSQL / FireBird 3) Encryption, and ... speed - InterBase. On many tests IB outperforms FB, at least. 4) Mobile platforms - InterBase 5) Change Views is unique InterBase feature If to put SQLite into this list, then if you does not need multi-user access, scalability, DB is relatively small, then SQLite is the right way. If something from this list is not true, or may become false in future, then not SQLite. In order of descending preferences - SQLite, IbToGo / Firebird embedded, PostgreSQL

    New to Json

    This may be coded in a more short form using 10.3.2. First case: var JsonValue: TJSONValue; Branch: string; begin JsonValue := TJSONObject.ParseJSONValue(st, False, True); try Branch := JsonValue.GetValue<string>('data.conditions[0].temp'); memo1.Lines.add('Parsed temperature '+branch); Branch := JsonValue.GetValue<string>('data.conditions[2].bar_sea_level'); memo1.Lines.add('Parsed barometer '+branch); finally JsonValue.Free; end; end; Second case: var JsonValue: TJSONValue; Branch: string; begin JsonValue := TJSONObject.ParseJSONValue(st, False, True); try Branch := JsonValue.GetValue<string>('iWN5p2qfRFeGKXn1m3iGnDW0Vkl2.PROFILE.BIRTHDAY'); memo1.Lines.Add('Parsed BIRTHDAY ' + Branch); Branch := JsonValue.GetValue<string>('iWN5p2qfRFeGKXn1m3iGnDW0Vkl2.PROFILE.FULL NAME'); memo1.Lines.Add('Parsed FULL NAME ' + Branch); finally JsonValue.Free; end; end; This is most simple code. Although not fastest, but may be enough fast. Depending on the requirements it may be optimized.

    JSON string value

    No, because they are rather "features", than bugs, introduced from library beginning. "Fixing" them will break backward compatibility.

    TFDEventAlerter bug?

    There are two options: 1) Modify your code. In EventAlert use: TThread.Queue(nil, procedure begin Caption := AEventName + ' ' + DateTimeToStr(Now); end); And in FormCreate set: FEvents.Options.Synchronize := False; 2) Modify FireDAC sources. For that in FireDAC.Phys.pas change method: function TFDPhysEventMessage.Perform(AThread: TFDThread): Boolean; begin FMsgThread := AThread as TFDPhysEventThread; if FMsgThread.Active then begin if FMsgThread.FAlerter.GetOptions.Synchronize then TFDThread.Queue(nil, BasePerform) else BasePerform; end; Result := True; end;

    JSON string value

    BTW, the test suite in above link is 98% successfully passed by 10.3.1 System.JSON. From 7 failing tests, 3-4 may be considered as a "feature" ...

    JSON string value

    We have two problems: 1) REST, DBX, System.JSON duplicating JSON serialization classes. 2) Non complete docu for (1) classes. We want to keep only System.JSON with options for backward compatibility with REST, DBX. And only to develop System.JSON. When this will happen, then all demos, tests (internal), docu, must be updated to reflect the current RTL state. Now it is not the time for docu work ...

    JSON string value

    function JsonEncodeString(const AStr: string): string; var LStr: TJSONString; begin LStr := TJSONString.Create(AStr); try Result := LStr.ToJSON; Result := Result.Substring(1, Result.Length - 2); finally LStr.Free; end; end; It expects AStr without double quotes, and returns text without double quotes. You can adjust it to your own needs. There are several options, eg with/without double quotes, encode non-ASCII chars/do not encode, etc. Probably more simple to implement the above according your needs.

    function stripcslashes()

    May be a bit unexpected approach. And sorry not C but JS, but they are close here. uses System.JSON; function StripJSSlashes(const AStr: string): string; var LVal: TJSONValue; begin LVal := TJSONObject.ParseJSONValue('"' + AStr + '"', False, True); try Result := TJSONString(LVal).Value; finally LVal.Free; end; end;

    ITask.Wait() behaving differently when called multiple times

    Once the exception has been raised, it's considered having notified the caller.

    Can TFDQuery (SQLite) work as fast as TFDmemtable ?

    Using Array DML, or as I wrote above - TFDBatchMove, you can get even better speed.

    Can TFDQuery (SQLite) work as fast as TFDmemtable ?

    TFDTable produces many additional queries to mimic TTable and to maintain Live Data Window: http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Tokyo/en/Browsing_Tables_(FireDAC)#Live_Data_Window_Mode

    Can TFDQuery (SQLite) work as fast as TFDmemtable ?

    1) If you need the speed, then dont use TFDTable. At least, use TFDQuery. 2) Consider to use TFDBatchMove with SQLReader from XLS / ODBC data source. And SQLWriter to SQLite DB.

    DPI-change, crashes tDrawgrid.

    @A.M. Hoornweg, I created and attached experimental patch. Please, try it and let me know. If all is OK, then I will include it into next 10.3 update. grid.patch

  22. Is it bad to use official DLL ? Several questions: * are you limited in distributing capabilities of this DLL (license, space, what ever) ? * who will support you, when something is broken, and you are using non-official connectivity ? * with whom you you can discuss your connectivity problems on INet, if you are using some from 3d party ? * how long will live your software, when 3d party provider is out of business, and DLL "insides"/protocol are changed ?
  23. This is IProviderSupport or IProviderSupportNG.

    FireDAC - Change Expired Password

    This issue was (most probably) fixed in 10.2.2. Your workaround is almost correct.
