    DelphiVCL4Python

    David Heffernan replied to limelect's topic in Python4Delphi

    The scenarios I'm thinking of are numerical programming where the bottlenecks are migrated to math libs like openblas

    DelphiVCL4Python

    David Heffernan replied to limelect's topic in Python4Delphi

    For loads of scenarios the interpreter doesn't matter for performance.

    Scientific research

    David Heffernan replied to zmezzo's topic in General Help

    Personally I compile openblas and other libraries into dlls and link to them. Not least because the performance is obviously much better than code compiled by delphi.

    Threadvar "per object"

    David Heffernan replied to chkaufmann's topic in Algorithms, Data Structures and Class Design

    The naive answer to your question is that the object holds a dictionary whose key is the thread id. But it's far from clear that what you are planning will actually solve your problem.

    F1 context help to WinAPI ?

    David Heffernan replied to rossh's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs

    It's far more effective just to paste the function name into Google surely

    CPas - C for Delphi

    David Heffernan replied to tinyBigGAMES's topic in I made this

    This has always been possible. On win64 delphi compiler/linker has never respected the pdata exception tables so exceptions in the linked code have unpredictable results, for instance insta process terminate. Not sure if latest delphi fixes that.

    C++ Builder 11.3 / RenameFile() not working?

    David Heffernan replied to cbPlus's topic in General Help

    What directory would you have expected the files to be relative to?

    C++ Builder 11.3 / RenameFile() not working?

    David Heffernan replied to cbPlus's topic in General Help

    What I don't understand is why you didn't use the debugger or other debugging techniques to check what values were being passed in to the function. That's my idea for you.

    Quality Portal going to be moved

    David Heffernan replied to Uwe Raabe's topic in Community Management

    Like when they asked us all to transfer our reports from QC to QP?

    Your code might appear to work on D7 but that's by chance. What I'm surprised at is why anyone is still talking about this. Who cares. Why do people want to work out what happens whe calling conventions don't match.
  11. David Heffernan
    This is wrong on D7 too. Don't believe everything you read.

    Are you setting every field in st? Looks like you didn't set DayOfWeek. It's a Wednesday, the 12th June. Doesn't seem worthwhile calling StrToDateTime and the DecodeDateTime when you can just set the fields directly.

    Product: Delphi Parser - AI claims - what does it mean?

    David Heffernan replied to Jasonjac2's topic in Delphi Third-Party

    Isn't this just grep?

    Newbie Question - VCL Object Rename

    David Heffernan replied to TimC's topic in General Help

    You use variables which contain references to them.

    Newbie Question - VCL Object Rename

    David Heffernan replied to TimC's topic in General Help

    Another good reason not to write code which depends on the string name of objects.

    F2047 Circular unit reference.

    David Heffernan replied to dmitrybv's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal

    Interfaces and callbacks might be the solution, but I'm always very sceptical of people who will tell you the solution to a problem that hasn't been clearly stated.

    F2047 Circular unit reference.

    David Heffernan replied to dmitrybv's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal

    Hard to answer without seeing how the classes and types are defined

    Delphi and "Use only memory safe languages"

    David Heffernan replied to Die Holländer's topic in General Help

    You are trolling here right?

    Showing TMenuItem icons at design time in the IDE

    David Heffernan replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs

    This entire thread is utterly pointless. Just submit a feature request. Yapping here won't change anything. Or are you just here for the yapping?

    Why does IDE require UAC elevation when starting?

    David Heffernan replied to Tom F's topic in General Help

    Right click on bds.exe and check what its compat settings are too

    What do you think of "Local Global variables"

    David Heffernan replied to Tommi Prami's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal

    I'm not sure that this is true.

    David Heffernan replied to Tommi Prami's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal

    My opinions are independently formed though

    David Heffernan replied to Tommi Prami's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal

    Not is the containing structured type is declared in the implementation section

    Types can be declared inside structured types.
