  1. Does the stream consist only of ptr_rec2 elements? Is it simply a double linked list? Is the element sequence in the stream of importance? Are the pointers relative positions in the stream or are they original memory positions in the old win32 app and discarded/replaced when loading in the receiving app? Do you need to keep it in the same linked list format in the new 64-bit app? Both ptr_rec1 and pointer are 8 bytes in 64-bit - so to read the stream in 64-bit, you would have to replace the pointer types with a 32-bit variable type Fake32bitPtr = UInt32; ptr_rec1=Fake32bitPtr; rec1=record i1:integer; p1:Fake32bitPtr; end; ActualPtr_rec2 = ^ptr_rec2; ptr_rec2=record rec:ptr_rec1; i:integer; p2:Fake32bitPtr; end; If the stream is not incredibly large, you could create a shadow structure that basically is an array of ActualPtr_rec2 and point to the ptr_rec2 elements without caring about the pointers?
  2. Why would you stream the pointers? They only have any meaning inside each application as a reference to a memory position.

    indy https error 10061

    Nope. I bought a license, though. Invaluable for sorting out the authentication protocol issues I had.

    Is there any edit/memo which allows multiselect?

    I use reg.ex search/replace and/or macros for that kind of stuff.

    I didn't realize that VSCode had it. It defaulted to Alt+Click, while I expected Ctrl+Click.
  6. Another thought - would it not be just as convenient to search the Windows Eventlog for the various events for start/logon/logoff/sleep/reboot/shutdown?
  7. I was also thinking about a service, but it might be more trouble (rights wise) to get one installed than a simple standalone app. Isn't there messages to respond to that can prevent/postpone the sleep?

    That is a very unusual function for a plain text editor. I don't think I've seen it before.

    Charles Proxy is also good for sniffing out http/https issues.

    Advise the component for editing tables

    TMS Advanced String Grid (https://www.tmssoftware.com/site/advgrid.asp) Not cheap, but part of a very powerful package of components (TMS VCL UI Pack). Data can be inserted in the grid, rendered from your memory structure, read from a db, json, excel, etc. We've been using it for many years now, and it is still being maintained and enhanced.

    EurekaLog 7.12.0.4 installation

    You have to expand that first line where the serial number is to see the download packages. There you'll find it next to the download link.

    EurekaLog 7.12.0.4 installation

    Right where you download your registered EL install kit, there is a link to the right of it where you can download the license file.
  13. You are right. I didn't consider the differences between GetMem and New.
  14. @JiyaHana Please read the thread before replying. That solution was already proposed.

    Toltip Expresion evaluation

    Can you see the value if you create a new Watch for it? Is the "variable" you are trying to inspect, actually a function result like MyObject.MyFunction? If it is, you need to go to Tools | Options | Debugger and enable "Allow side effects and function calls in new watches"

    Access multiple Outlook calendars

    Have you checked Microsoft's documentation? Does it indicate that it should be possible?

    Toltip Expresion evaluation

    Do you mean a tooltip for a variable in the source code on a breakpoint inside the IDE, or a tooltip that should appear on a component in your application when it is running? As you can see - your description still lack the detail needed for me to really understand the problem. Be specific.

    Handing over the baton to Thomas and Lars

    Thank you, Daniel - for expanding the Delphi-PraXis site to offer a home for the English speaking Delphi Developers! I spelunk this place almost every day, and it is invaluable to the community for keeping up to date, and find help in resolving issues - or simply for learning new things! See you around, and my best wishes to you and your family for a joyful and prosperous new year! Brgds, Lars F.

    Toltip Expresion evaluation

    Which Delphi version? Which Platform? Which component(s)? What did you expect should happen? If we have to guess what you are doing or how you do it - it is unlikely we can be of any help. https://larsfosdal.blog/2016/04/20/how-do-i-ask-good-questions/

    EurekaLog 7.12.0.4 installation

    Online activation failed for me. Downloading the license file and inserting it "manually" worked.

  24. Fresh code: https://github.com/VSoftTechnologies/DUnitX Typical code that we test with DUnitX: - value to string and string to value - lookup functions - generic classes - formatters as well as database integration tests (CRUD) How do you guys use it?
