Where is this documented, i search a couple of times where these things are documented but could not find anything at embarcadero.

$(Auto) exists? where can i find things like this?

Will do from now on, thnx for the support though 👍

Ordered epub, will order paper too. Talked last weeks with collegue about how we learned programming (only) from books in the paste, so we have to support the writers more i think, get rid of the "google /stackoverflow search" programming trend 🙂. Hell, i'v done Cobol programming exams on paper (no computer for the exams 🙂 ). Maybe something for a subforum, "Delphi Books" where people can give hints for good books?

First question, do you have source code from the program and or bpl files ? Second, are you able to compile these?

New problem 🙂 Template: Longitude1: AdrLongitude Longitude2: <%AdrLongitude%> Longitude3: <%fmt('%7.4f', AdrLongitude)%> Longitude4: <%fmt('%7,4f', AdrLongitude)%> Output: Longitude1: AdrLongitude Longitude2: 5,92406892776489 Longitude3: -?,?<E3523 Longitude4: Question: How to get fmt to work properly? (using Dutch Windows, EU-VS-Keyboard, Dutch Settings, som the decimalsep is a comma on this system) see also <%x := 5%> X=<%x%> <%y := 5.1234%> Y=<%y%> the part with y can not be evaluated/parsed, wether i use a comma (,) or a dot (.)

thnx, works like a charm like this.

Little problem with records, not sure if its Sempare or just delphi ande rtti on records some quick test code: TTestRecord=record ID : Integer; TypeID : integer; Description : string; Vehicle : string; ChildRecords : TArray<TTestRecord>; procedure Init; function SubResource(const AType : Integer; var AResource : TTestRecord) : Boolean; function SubResources(const AExceptTypes : TIntegerSet) : TArray<TTestRecord>; end; const CNST_HTMLTEMPLATE_RESOURCE = '<font face="calibri" size="12">'+ '<b>(<% id %>) <% description %></b><br><br>'+ '<% Vehicle %><br>'+ '</font>'+ '<font face="calibri" size="10">'+ '<% for subres in ChildRecords %>SubRes: |<% subres.Description %>|<br><%end%>'+ '</font>'; var tpl : ITemplate; v1,v2 : TTestRecord; r : TTestRecord; begin tpl := Template.Parse(CNST_HTMLTEMPLATE_RESOURCE); v1.Description := 'xx11-22-33'; v1.ID := 1; v1.TypeID := 2; v2.Description := 'yy4455-66'; v2.ID := 2; v2.TypeID := 2; r.Description := 'maurits'; SetLength(r.ChildRecords, 2); r.ChildRecords[0] := v1; r.ChildRecords[1] := v2; r.Init; mmoResult.Text := Template.Eval(tpl, r); showmessage(r.Vehicle); end; i get not the result i expected on the subres.description, I get 2 times SubRes: but the description field stays empty in the parsed result?

Yes, would be nice if this would be configurable. In the solution i now have, i have to parse on server, and sometimes a second time on clients. If this is configurable, i can decide in the template where things are resolved.

Ah ok, its for creating an API consumer, (my first thought was something for declaring API's,, e.g. like in radserver (which we are using right now)).

ok, tnx for the quick response 🙂 For now, it's ok how it is, i will check next week for update.

thnx. other question, is it possible to use the engine multithreaded? (eg, can i have more engine instances in one process? )

Looking now to implement the engine in an application here, but when i have a template like: Value: <% value %> Description: <% description %> I get double crl/lfs in the result? [edit] after inspection it seems like that the Template.Eval function adds an extra CR is added. (e.g. #$D#$A becomes #$D#$D#$A) quickfix: 🙂 Result := Template.Eval(FParsedTemplate, objrec).Replace(#13#13, #13, [rfReplaceAll]);

or use a const 🙂 const FILESEARCH_RECURSIVE = True; FILESEARCH_NONE_RECURSIVE = False; ... ... TFileSearcher.FindFiles('c:\', FILESEARCH_RECURSIVE); ... ... [edit] already mentioned i see now, sorry For myself i prefer the enumating way by the way.

Use HLS/HSL colorspace for distance ?

I'v (very long ago), published shareware, with (don't know which anymore) protection component (bought a component back then). 1 Day after publising the cracks where available on the internet 🙂 (and this was a niche product, some tooling for Progress 4GL, but created with delphi) Seems some crackers do things completely automaticly.

Yes, but can't publish the version we are using here (at work). I will start soon, creating a new more general version at home (knowledge is in my mind already 🙂 ).

Using our own swagger parser > delphi unit generator here. works great. Generates the needed types as classes and a class which executes the methods. Will see if i can extract/publish a public version in my spare free time 🙂

Reasonable pricing 🙂 And reasonable discounts for longtime customers (subscriptors) We also created some tickets about the new LSP, and i really really wonder how the tested the new LSP, so many bugs in it what makes it unusable, and then if you switch back to thel old code insight, all the bugs are still there. it's a shame.

I've had an employer like that also. And then they go mad because tackling problems with the software while in production takes ages for consultants and after them the developers, because they get no errors 🙂

Looks good so far, sometimes a liitle bit slow with repainting the windows, but very usefull! That there are some issues matches the host application 🙂

In recent versions there is a "migration tool" which also can be used for backup/restore actions. It covers not all things needed for a full backup of you delphi installation. You still have to backup files installed by installers (delphi, 3thparty components) etc.

You got this from Rudy J.?

Hey, we installed D10.4.1 lastweek, code completion works better, code insight still not realy usable (for us). But one thing, if you override a class, normally with codecompletion you would see all the overridable methods of the parent class, with the 10.4.1 we do not see them. so all the overrides you have to type full instead of pick them from the list. (e.g. destroy, afterconstruction, beforedestruction etc etc)

Added commenct to rsp-29357 sreenshot, clean install of 10.4.1, simple console project. hitting ctrl-space for code compeltion Getting very, very, very tired of the Delphi IDE.
