And that was most likely the reason. The compiler only compiles units that have changed. Changing the include file does not change the units. To ensure that a unit is recompiled after a change to an include file, you must do a complete build of the project(s). The same applies to defines set in the .dproj file btw. Changing them does not trigger a complete rebuild. If you want to be really paranoid about this, delete all units from the unit output path. This ensures that every unit will be recompiled. I do that once in a while.

You cannot define a symbol in the .dpr file to be available in the units (it will be available in the .dpr file itself though). You must put it into the .dproj file (Project -> Options). Alternatively you can define it in an include file and include that file in all units that require the symbol. That latter approach is used by most libraries because a library cannot add anything to the project options.

All tests pass with 10.4 now.

Interesting: Completed: 205, Succeeded: 205, Failed: 0 ✓ All tests passed! ✖ float\double-dot-02.toml ✖ float\double-point-2.toml Completed: 529, Succeeded: 527, Failed: 2 I was expecting the same failures as in Delphi 11, but got two different ones.

When compiled with Delphi 11 3 of the tests fail: ✖ comment\after-literal-no-ws.toml: 'inf' is not a valid floating point value ✖ float\inf-and-nan.toml: 'nan' is not a valid floating point value ✖ spec-1.0.0\float-2.toml: 'inf' is not a valid floating point value Completed: 205, Succeeded: 202, Failed: 3 Completed: 529, Succeeded: 529, Failed: 0 ✓ All tests passed! No idea how to fix that. (On the other hand I am not that bothered because I don't really use Delphi 11 anyway.) I hope that feedback was useful for you. And thanks a lot for the effort you put into that library.

TJsonObjectReader was apparently introduced in Delphi 10.4 so I got a bit further and then hit the next error: [dcc32 Error] Tests.dpr(112): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'Contains' That's TStrings.Contains which doesn't find. And that apparently was introduced in Delphi 12. But the reaplacement would be really simple: b := List.Contains(S) // becomes b := IndexOf(S) >= 0; And now it compiles.

No luck, now it's [dcc32 Error] TOML.Parser.pas(178): E2149 Class does not have a default property I added ".Items" in 4 places in that unit and then got [dcc32 Error] TOML.pas(130): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'TJsonObjectReader' So I guess making it compatible with 10.2 would be quite a lot of effort (And I'm not even talking about Delphi 2007 which I would have tried next. 😉 )

The tests from files-toml_1.0.0 now all pass. Should those from files-toml_1.1.0 also pass? They don't: ✖ datetime\no-seconds.toml: Error at 2:26: Expected ":", got "EOL" ✖ inline-table\newline-comment.toml: Error at 5:2: Expected "ID", got "End of Line" ✖ inline-table\newline.toml: Error at 4:2: Expected "ID", got "End of Line" ✖ spec-1.1.0\common-12.toml: Error at 1:54: Invalid string escape char: "x" ✖ spec-1.1.0\common-29.toml: Error at 1:24: Expected ":", got "Z" ✖ spec-1.1.0\common-31.toml: Error at 1:24: Expected ":", got "EOL" ✖ spec-1.1.0\common-34.toml: Error at 1:12: Expected ":", got "EOL" ✖ spec-1.1.0\common-47.toml: Error at 5:5: Expected "ID", got "End of Line" ✖ string\escape-esc.toml: Error at 1:9: Invalid string escape char: "e" ✖ string\hex-escape.toml: Error at 3:21: Invalid string escape char: "x" Completed: 214, Succeeded: 204, Failed: 10 Completed: 524, Succeeded: 524, Failed: 0 ✓ All tests passed! But I guess that's because it's TOML v1.0.0 compliant, not v1.1.0. I also noticed that you removed the IsBufferValid call. I'll try to compile with Delphi 10.2 again.

Found it. I didn't know there was a submodule.

It compiles with Delphi 12. I downloaded the tests from https://github.com/toml-lang/toml-test/tree/main/tests put them into the tests subdirectory and run the Tests.dpr project. I got 6 errors: ✖ datetime\local-time.toml: '00.555' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert ✖ datetime\local.toml: '00.555' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert ✖ datetime\milliseconds.toml: '56.123' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert ✖ spec-1.0.0\local-date-time-0.toml: '00.999' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert ✖ spec-1.0.0\local-time-0.toml: '00.999' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert ✖ spec-1.0.0\offset-date-time-0.toml: '00.999' ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert Completed: 205, Succeeded: 199, Failed: 6 Completed: 529, Succeeded: 529, Failed: 0 ✓ All tests passed! Is that the expected result? ("ist kein gültiger Gleitkommawert" means "is not a valid floating point value")

Which Delphi version does it require? I just tried Delphi 10.2 and got a compile error: [dcc32 Error] TOML.Parser.pas(145): E2003 Undeclared identifier: 'IsBufferValid' I'll try Delphi 12 now.

If I had to guess, I'd blame a virus scanner.

In my installation there are two different executables with that name, one is in bin the other in bin64. I guess the one in bin64 is the experimental 64 bit compiler while the one in bin is the regular 32 bit compiler (both for generating 64 bit output).

My only problem with that is the license: GPL simply makes it useless for me. But since it's based on another GPL library you probably didn't have a choice.

The demos on the website look impressive. We have our own internal map component but that's a far cry from yours and it doesn't even support FMX. Does your component also support different coordinate systems and projections (e.g. Lambert for France or Gauß-Krüger for Germany)?

Embarcadero still not fixing this annoying problem after several updates made me add the IDE toolbar expert to GExperts. Now I remove all the toolbars and enable the GExperts one. Works fine for me. (If you use the IDE dark mode, you will probably not like it.)

IDE toolbars get scrambled over time The toolbars of the IDE lose icons when starting, exiting and restarting the IDE multiple times (see screenshot). This bug had already been reported in the old quality portal for Delphi 11 and 12. It’s still there in Delphi 12.1. Resetting the toolbars to their default using the View → Toolbars → Customize dialog, helps for a while before the same happens again. https://embt.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/RSS-515 It seems to have been fixed in Delphi 12.3, at last I have not seen this problem after I updated my installations. Maybe it has been fixed? The bug report is still open though, so maybe that was a side effect of some other change?

With that kind of qualification I would expect a 6 digits salary. (But I'm not interested anyway.)

Did you ever try that? The biggest hurdle in updating any packages for a new Delphi version was moving from 2007 to 2009, where string changed from AnsiString to Unicode. But even that was easier than I expected for most components suites. With most packages you need to update some central include file and create new package projects. The source code will compile fine most of the time. Usually that takes at maximum an hour (but I have had cases where the Update took me several days due to some problems I introduced myself). But this will only work if you bought the source code, which I have always recommended because you never know when some 3rd party vendor might go out of business. And you won't get the latest features of course.

This is one of my pet pevees with Github: It's difficult to find out which repository is the official one. (Especially since everybody keeps telling me: In git all repositories are equal,)

OK, I bite: What's the problem with SameValue?

What's wrong with Assert(SameValue(Value, Should)) Or, if you want to set the maximum allowed difference yourself Assert(SameValue(Value, Should, MaxDelta)) Edit: @Cristian Peța already suggested that.
