    Find record operators via Rtti?

    I think it has a name something like &op_Equality. You should be able to enumerate the methods of the type.

    IPV6 to number

    If that code would compile, then there wouldn't be much point in having the library. Think about what the literal on the rhs of the assignment actually is.

    3 explorer running

    I doubt anyone wants to download your software. I know I don't. Normally if you want help you'd explain more what the problem is. Anyway, never mind.

    3 explorer running

    I'm afraid that none of this makes a lot of sense. Why do you feel that there should only be one explorer process? Why does that matter?

    3 explorer running

    It's common to have lots of explorer processes. There's an option that means each window is run from a different process. I can't understand why you would feel that there should only be a single explorer process. That's for the system to decide. If you want to interact with the system then you need to follow its rules. You don't make the system rules.

    Minifing HTML

    Of course not. You aren't generating the html.

    Minifing HTML

    How are you generating the original html?

    Problems running in 64 bit mega PC

    Yes, if it is an affinity mask then it should be NativeUInt.
  9. Sounds like the classic OOP trap of trying to solve all problems with inheritance. Good OOP programmers hardly ever use inheritance to solve problems.

    Problems running in 64 bit mega PC

    I mean that this thing is named as though it is an affinity mask. And on Windows that makes it pointer sized. So, NativeUInt.

    Affinity masks for pointer sized.

    Don't try to use more than 48 threads in that case

    Connection string encryption

    If the hacker gets the program, and there is a hard coded key in the program, then it's trivial to hack.

    Problems running in 64 bit mega PC

    Is it 96 cpus, or 48 with 2 threads per core? Is the memory NUMA?

    Connection string encryption

    Seems like it's not really worthwhile then....

    Connection string encryption

    So you don't mind if the security is easily circumvented?

    Connection string encryption

    Although do anticipate that any hacker will be able to see the plain text when you decrypt in memory.

    Random Access Violation?

    So often this is caused by a defect in your code. You supply an argument that is invalid. Perhaps an object that has already been destroyed. So full fastmm4 debug is useful. You would debug this by trying to create a minimal example that reproduces the issue. That's the starting point.

    Random Access Violation?

    No reason at all to suspect that multithreading is the issue here. You aren't likely to get good leads from people making random guesses. Hard debugging is the way forward.
  20. The WOL packet is also being routed it would seem.

    Random Access Violation?

    One of many possible explanations, but far from the only one.
  22. How many ports do you have open on your public facing router?
  23. David Heffernan

    FastMM4 and option "AlwaysClearFreedMemory"

    That's surely not the right solution to the problem. The right solution is to implement the critical code following standard security practices. And to then get it audited by a security expert.

    Boolean evaluation

    This point about interop has merit, however, Boolean is the wrong type for interop. You need LongBool.
