Start a new topic. Give some examples.

Another benefit of using generic classes over records is the amount of reuse.

True that.

I agree. If we consider the current example, what would be your choice?

Exactly. Which is why I use objects.

TList<^TDataRec>?

Which is why I don't use dictionaries with records. It is rare that I load up a dictionary and do not need to change some of the content later. If I was insistent on doing records, I would probably write code that ordered the array by the key and did binary lookup to a pointer to the record.

@David Heffernan The last time I tried that, I was changing copies of what I had put into the dictionary. Perhaps I was doing it wrong?

How many elements in Data ?

@Larry Hengen - did you change the access rights (chmod) on the db file as well? What are the access rights?

Have you tested without extra IDE extensions?

Found a somewhat related case to my issue in QP: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-28514 Added my comments to it.

See comments #1 Ctrl+Shift+ArrowUp/Down does not work. Seems to be due to typed constant. See comments #2: Broken class completion, seemingly due to same cause as #1. program SydneyCodeNav; {$APPTYPE CONSOLE} {$R *.res} uses System.SysUtils; type TRec = record a: Integer; // procedure Test; // #2 Uncomment line and press Ctrl+Shift+C to complete code end; TMyObject = class const TR:TRec = (a:1); private procedure InternalTest; // #1 Place cursor here, try Ctrl+Shift+ArrowDown does not work public procedure Test; end; TUnrelated = class // procedure Unrelated; // #2 Uncomment line and press Ctrl+Shift+C to complete code end; { TMyObject } procedure TMyObject.InternalTest; begin Writeln('InternalTest'); // #1 Place cursor here, Ctrl+Shift+ArrowDown end; procedure TMyObject.Test; begin Writeln('Test'); // #1 Place cursor here, Ctrl+Shift+ArrowDown does not work InternalTest; // Ctrl-Clicking InternalTest works end; procedure Test; // Chtrl+Shift+ArrowUp/Down works here var o: TMyObject; begin o := TMyObject.Create; // Chtrl+Shift+ArrowUp/Down works here try o.Test; finally o.Free; end; end; begin try try Test; except on E: Exception do Writeln(E.ClassName, ': ', E.Message); end; finally Write('Press Enter: '); Readln; end; end.

I haven't seen that specific problem, but I have some units where Ctrl+Shift+Arrow up/down simply refuses to work in 10.4.1 as well as 10.3.3. I need to try to make a minimal example and report it.

Is this to navigate between interface and implementation for a class method?

I have an AOC U3277 - very happy with it.

You can collapse a section of the subforum list, but then there are the activity streams.

My installation did the uninstall and asked if I wanted to keep the current registry settings, which I confirmed. Colors and environment variables, etc, were as expected after the new installation. Same with SDKs and Connections. I did have some issues with Parnassus - where I had to delete the old Parnassus_Sydney DLLs for the installer to run as the old ones did not work with the new IDE. Then I got some missing Parnassus warnings when loading workspace, before I could reinstall with GetIt. After installation, the DLLs were where I expected, and everything worked as expected - apart from a floating bookmark window 😛

It is slightly annoying that you have to manually reinstall GetIt component packages on an upgrade like this.

Individual ticket display - It depends a lot on the type of user. I know that our users that are non-PC aficionados, are uncomfortable with tree views. If the series of stages are sequential, I'd consider a segmented progress bar, combined with a panel with information on the status of the current stage in progress. Just to stay in line with my original example

Well, technically I use RAD Studio - that has the C++ bit - but that is sort of a remnant from when the .NET stuff looked like it was going somewhere. Not sure if it is possible to downgrade from RAD Studio Enterprise to Delphi Enterprise. I never use the C++ bit even though I always install it for good measure. Point being: There is a relationship that goes heavily from C++Builder to Delphi, but which is very weak the other way around.

I replaced the URL.

Indeed it is only outbound. All inbound activity is TCP/UDP oriented.

I wonder what kind of effect that has on f.x. FireDAC? We use the SQLNCLI11 and MSOLEDBSQL drivers in heavily multithreaded services. We also use OLE objects in DLLs created a decade and a half ago against our ERP system.
