    10.4.1+ Custom Managed Records usable?

    It's Python. Perl's conditional operator is the same as C. That looks completely different. And has the condition first. Quote unlike how it is done in Python.

    I don't think that rings true. I mean the Python if statement is the same as the Pascal if statement. The Python syntax is closer to natural language than what is done in Oxygene. I don't see either as being particularly in keeping with Pascal, one way or another.

    Is it possible to see Git current working branch in IDE?

    He's already using SourceTree which displays the information......

    I don't understand most of the answers. Mike wants to see the information in the RAD Studio IDE.

    Maximum static memory

    This entire thread is largely pointless because we don't have a clear idea what you are trying to do and what your code looks like.

    Utility to import/convert simple Python code

    So write it in Python.

    Why don't you write something yourself to do this?

    Delphi 11 Windows XP compatibility tweak

    I watched the sneak peak webinar and Marco mentioned that apps would no longer run on XP and also described the workaround in the original post here. So yes, this is intentional, and submitting a QP report would be kind of pointless. However, if you want there to be one you could do it yourself, rather than ask somebody else to do it.

    They explicitly don't want to keep on supporting these old versions. Why? Emba have done all this intentionally.

    Is anybody but me using monitors with different scaling?

    Does GExperts and/or the IDE that you are using support per monitor DPI?

    I wonder if the x64 windows debugger works now

    Delphi 11: Text size too small!

    Why is nobody else reporting this issue?

    Irrelevant. Good products are cohesive. Different aspects work with each other and support each other. Funny. Binary literals, digit separators and avx512 asm. That's the entirety of new language features. That's a pace that can only be described as glacial. Cant be hard to get the old formatter to work. If it's an arse for them to do it, tough. Their adult for building up so much technical debt. Honestly, look at the quality of what comes out of Emba and compare to other mainstream IDEs.

    Honestly you'd think they'd have got the memo by now!!! What is wrong with them?!!

    These are nice features but they are also completely trivial.

    Do mean decimal seps or thousands seps?

    What the heck does this mean? People are trying to help you and the fact that you can't recognise it doesn't mean that they are unprofessional.

    Here is the list of language improvements: binary integral literals (i.e. %0101 which equals 5 in decimal) _ can be used as a digit separator for integral literals, e.g. const oneMillion = 1_000_000 (essentially the parser just ignores _ when parsing such literals) inline asm support for AVX-512 instructions Kinda lame that this is all there is.

    no, nor any improvement in the codegen so far as I could tell

    Certainly your settings could be relevant.
  21. Everything that you create by hand (as opposed to being created by a script) goes under revision control

    Re-Index a PageControl.PageIndex

    I think you need to write a short but complete program that demonstrates the issue. Otherwise it requires us to guess which is not effective or efficient.

    Anybody changing FileVersion directly in dproj file?

    Why wouldn't you automate the build?
  24. I guess you mean dpr not dfm. But even that sometimes is not enough. Because the units won't be initialised in the order the appear in the dpr. The first unit in the dpr will use other units and that influences initialisation order too.

    It's almost as if this thread didn't happen! What have we been talking about before now???
