    I just tried my example code which failed before the April patch in the 64-bit IDE, targeting 64-bit Windows.

    Try with external MSBuild in the project options and select x64 as preferred architecture. Key is to use the 64-bit compiler versions from the bin64 folder. The target platform is almost irrelevant. Only bcc64x got an update with the April patch.

    Could you try that at runtime?

    It also works at runtime.

    Also the query to have at least 2 fields (Hour and whatever) (so we have a static and dynamic fields at the same time).

    In that case you need to set the FieldOptions.AutoCreateMode of the query to acCombineAlways to create the dynamic fields and the FieldOptions.PositionMode to poFieldNo to get the same order as before.

    Personally I think the problem is from FD engine ... it returns all fields as WideString instead of appropriate type.

    Well, it does not do that in all of my queries and those of my customers.

     

    Can you also show the table definition of CD_Main (the CREATE TABLE command)?


  4. You may even try to contact sales online: https://www.embarcadero.com/company/contact-sales

    Well, as I said, my request was declined because I don't have an active support and maintenance agreement in place.

    If you've got that decline by email, check if it contains some phrase that you should contact sales instead.

     

    OK, they might try to sell you an update, new license or something similar, but you don't need that to get your registration counter bumped.

    So, my main question is simply this:  If I delete the existing licence from my old PC, will this free up the serial number so that I can use it on the new PC?  Or will it remain unusable?

    No, unfortunately that won't help. Although you remove the license from that PC, you won't get a registration bump with that.

     

    The key for getting a bump without active subscription lies here:

    I approached Embarcadero technical support with a request for an additional registration slot for the serial number I have

    While the technical support is the right place with an active subscription, you should contact your local Embarcadero Sales representative for a bump when your subscription ran out.

    How can that happen

     

    One possible scenario:

    • Product Management schedules RSP-38842 for 12.3
    • Product Owner assigns the task to implement that to some developer
    • Developer implements it in an interface breaking way
    • Developer team realizes that the change cannot be done in 12.3 and postpone merging the change
    • Unfortunately they forgot to notify the Product Owner to adjust the fix version

  7. You can iterate the protected DataLinks property (there are several ways to access a protected property described elsewhere). For each TDataLink in this list act according to the actual class type: A TFieldDataLink gives you access to the corresponding Control, while a TGridDataLink provides the connected Grid. There are other classes inherited from TDataLink with other purposes, but that should you get started.
