    Feature Request for String Paste As

    I totally agree, and it has been suggested for years. No joy so far. Unneeded whitespace and linebreaks should be eliminated. LSQL := "SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE myCol=1 ORDER BY id DESC";
  2. Requeuing Stages is most welcome! We have stages that sometimes fail due to transient external circumstances. Is it possible to "manipulate" an exported file (change strings) and reimport it, or is the file integrity checked somehow?
  3. Cristian was the first to spot the blog article: https://blogs.embarcadero.com/delphi-compiler-and-lsp-patch-for-rad-studio-10-4-1/

    Outdated Delphi Roadmap

    The lack of a progress indicator in the GetItCmd process is annoying.
  5. I have an affection for Shell's sort - but it has a weakness as it does not preserve order for equal rows, which is easily worked around - but then again, it is not recursive and does not degrade on already sorted or partially sorted lists.
  6. Ordered the epub+print version.

    Having fun with Delphi

    That would be poor design of a class lib, IMO. 😞 Unfortunately not a rare thing in newer Delphi releases.

    @Attila Kovacs What about System.IOUtils.TPath.Combine?
  9. I pay an arm and a leg for WordPress' own hosted version for https://larsfosdal.blog so I that wouldn't have to think about these things. I wonder if that also leaks these things?

    Common callback functions, or not?

    @Dany Marmur Unless they added new warnings in 10.4, they do not? It is perfectly legal to capture a variable or property whose content may change during execution, while you wanted to capture a specific value of that variable or property. It is easy to miss. The workaround is to always assign that variable to a local variable that you reference in the anon method.

    I like anon procs too - but unfortunate variable captures can be easy to miss.
  12. https://www.crystalnet-tech.com/RuntimeLibrary/RuntimeLibrary4Delphi Have any of you tried this lib?

    LiveBindings question

    I don't use LiveBindings, but intuitively that doesn't strike me as something that I would do in a data change driven event? But - then again, I don't use LiveBindings.

    CrystalNet - .Net Runtime Library for Delphi

    Yeah, I wondered about that one too. Maybe it is just smoke and mirrors...
  15. I think I have seen at least four posts about this issue, so here is a sticky.
  16. My bad. Tokyo of course. Still valid for W7SP1. It does look like something on your PC. If you have a good workstation with Windows 10 Pro, you can enable Hyper-V and easily run a Windows 7 installation in a VM. Having Checkpoints when you are happy with an installation allows you to quickly roll back if something breaks.

    Outdated Delphi Roadmap

    Give me patience. NOW!
  18. 10.2 = Berlin - and it is supposed to work under Windows 7 Service Pack 1 However - I am pretty sure that Berlin didn't change two months ago. As far as I can remember, the folder that File Open uses has always followed the file you currently have in front in the editor . There is one exception: if you have the welcome page in front, the directory appears to be the directory of the most recently opened project.

    CrystalNet - .Net Runtime Library for Delphi

    Just wondering how they do it. Seems they have a .NET Core lib in the works as well.

    MiTeC DFM Editor 8.0.0

    This could be an interesting companion to VS Code with OmniPascal.

  23. TRESTClient is supposed to be in the Professional SKU. The SO link I posted explains how to fix the exception for 10.2.
  24. Isn't Indy in the Pro version?
