Exit, Break and Continue are all good. No problem with them being used properly. These local variables that are shared between local functions are very different because they tend to have larger scope that is harder to manage. -

I always prefer to pass parameters because it makes it much clearer what the input/output of the function is. Usually the so called convenience you refer to just leads to obfuscation. -
I honestly can't make any sense of this text. Is it just me?

Convert Visual Studio 2012 code to Delphi
David Heffernan replied to Bahram Akhundov's topic in General Help
It seems unlikely that somebody will write your program for you. Why don't you pay a programmer to do it? -

David Heffernan replied to Bahram Akhundov's topic in General Help
Doesn't seem like you want help. It seems like you want somebody to do it. I definitely recommend getting a programmer involved. -

Why not do this yourself? You could get some AI help to start, and then polish it up. If you want to pay somebody to do this there are plenty of online sites dedicated to facilitating that. -

Changes in System.sysutils.pas were not reflecting in other unit in Delphi 11
David Heffernan replied to sp0987's topic in General Help

David Heffernan replied to sp0987's topic in General Help

memory; The function of EmptyWorkingSet
David Heffernan replied to DelphiUdIT's topic in Windows API
If you aren't using a swap file, where do those pages go when removed from the working set? I mean, these are pages allocated by your process. My best guess is that you did a benchmarking exercise that reached an incorrect conclusion and then you have continued using this function erroneously. -

If you can do this with detours then it's preferable by far -

Why though? -

Nobody really cares that much. It's a gruesome way to go. I'd solve the problem properly but you don't want to tell us what the problem is.
