    REST Request is not working well on Delphi 11

    The second call seems to have some query parameters inside the URL while the first one does not. This issue has a workaround in the comments: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-35365
  2. Perhaps similar to this one: LSP Ctrl+Click navigation fails when only DCP's referenced

    Missing procedures/functions in lookup??

    Historically the IDE uses several parsers for different functionality. The goal is to move all these to the new LSP approach, but that needs time.
  4. Although that might be the case, I recently turned to form a habit that avoids anything causing exceptions inside constructors. That may also lead to avoid giving parameters to constructors - at least when they are not being handled seamlessly during the lifetime of the instance. That allows to concentrate on the real work to be done instead of figuring out some tricky handling of edge cases. LA := TRaiseOnMinus.Create; try LA.Initialize(AInputA); //<== PossibleRaise LB := TRaiseOnMinus.Create; try LB.Initialize(AInputB); //<== Possible Raise { do the normal stuff with LA and LB } finally LB.Free; end; finally LA.Free; end;

    Probably something in your code we cannot see that the parser stumbles upon.

    wuppdi Welcome Page for Delphi 11 Alexandria?

    Unfortunately that won't work. High-DPI is not something the plugin initiates, it is the IDE doing that. The plugin just has to support it. The same with VCL styles. The IDE activates it and the plugin just has to cope with that somehow. Given that styling and dpi glitches are usually highly visible, they are the first that get reported. That may render the plugin unusable. That said, I am also a bit disappointed by the delay. On the other hand, I can imagine the challenge behind it.

    IDE Integration: Disable IDE Integration -> How to turn back on?

    Yeah, that's kind of a chicken and egg problem. The simplest approach would be to execute MMX_Setup again.

    IDE being destroyed by new versions

    Yes. it should. It is the search field for IDE Insight and should find almost everything that the IDE is aware of.

    Community edition form designer

    You can open a second edit window and (since D11) put the form designer in that one. That will mimic the former floating designer pretty well.

    Loss of Datasouce??

    Sometimes it helps to rename the datamodule to avoid a name clash with the internal one. Naming a datamodule dmImages may be OK for a standalone application, but for an IDE plugin that seems not to be wise. I made this experience myself.

    Loss of Datasouce??

    This can also happen when the missing DataSource is not located at the same form/frame as the DB components and the IDE fails to open the datamodule (or wherever this datasource resides) for whatever reasons. I had similar experiences with actions located in a datamodule. If by any chance that datamodule shares its name with one of the IDE internal ones (including those in 3rd party modules) that can be the cause of breaking the linkage.

    File-> Open recent: way off the top of the screen

    The settings are in the same dialog as the list of recent files and projects. The default is 10 projects and 15 files.

    Special Offer for Documentation Insight

    As long as it keeps doing what it was made for even in newer Delphi versions I would not rate that negative. There is plenty of software just refusing to work anymore where I would love to see it in some maintenance mode.

    Copy a record from TTable to kbmMemTable??

    TDataSet offers a method CopyFields for that.
  15. There is a function for that in System.IOUtils: MyByteArray := TFile.ReadAllBytes(filename);
  16. Sure that: var bmp: TBitmap; png: TPngImage; begin bmp := TBitmap.Create; try png := TPngImage.Create; try png.LoadFromFile('c:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\Studio\21.0\bin\Artwork\Windows\UWP\cppreg_UwpDefault_150.png'); bmp.SetSize(png.Width, png.Height); png.Draw(bmp.Canvas, TRect.Create(TPoint.Zero, png.Width, png.Height)); bmp.SaveToFile('c:\temp\test.bmp'); finally png.Free; end; finally bmp.Free; end; end; Depending on your Delphi version you might even succeed with a simple bmp.Assign(png);
  17. What about just Draw the Png to the Bitmap Canvas?

    Magic numbers (1)

    OK, inline const and inline var are not fully covered by MMX in the moment. It is on the ToDo list, though.
  19. RAD Studio includes Delphi and C++ Builder, but you can purchase each separately.

    IDE being destroyed by new versions

    When you use it on an existing method to change its name.
  21. IIRC, there used to be a Delphi Driver Development Kit at least up to Delphi 2007, but I never had the need to make use of it.
  22. Revenue is proportional to number of sales and price.
  23. Not sure where you get this from. The price for the first year and the price for the renewal are clearly shown side by side: https://www.embarcadero.com/app-development-tools-store/delphi They also offer subscription for multiple years if you ask for it.
  24. Not sure if I understand, but you can extend the life time by renewing your subscriptions for one or multiple years. Are you referring to the annual subscription cost being too expensive?
