    Authorization using Apple ID

    Sorry.. been busy with Memorizor. They're still coming. Were you after an installable component for Apple Signin, or something else?
  2. For anyone that might come across this topic: I had this error recently. It was being caused by the less than optimal Version Info grid in Project Options. Somehow the CFBundleExecutable value was changed: So if you have the same error message, it might pay to check the values in the Version Info section
  3. I figured this would be easy.. I'm working on an app that needs to read data from a com port - this I have code for. I'm having trouble finding something (that actually works), that can "simulate" data being sent to the port so that it can be read from the app. Simulation is needed because I'm remoting to the machine in question and I'd rather avoid having to (or for someone else to) go to where the machine is to connect a device that might not even be suitable. I have come across this: https://www.aggsoft.com/com-port-emulator.htm, however I'm unable to work out exactly how it is supposed to emulate (when clicking "Start", it prevents anything else from accessing the port) or it's just not suitable anyway. I used to work on apps over 20 years ago (using Delphi 3) that did this kind of thing, but we had the luxury of having the actual hardware with us. That's about how long it has been since I've done this kind of thing.

    "Simulating" a com port with data arriving

    Com0Com works great, thanks! I'm using it on Windows 10. Thanks also to everyone else for replying

    Olevariant and memory leak

    Looks more like a fix for: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-23095 Two birds with one stone (perhaps unintentionally)?
  6. In the Entitlements section of the Project Options, ensure that "Secure File Sharing" is checked.

    XCode 12 compile error

    That the export option exists had slipped my mind.. I'll update my article; thanks!

    XCode 12 compile error

    You'll find you won't be able to debug with a device that has iOS 14.0. Deploying will work; just not debugging. Because Delphi does not import the iOS 13.6 SDK correctly, either (as well as iOS 14.0). Use iOS 13.5 SDK if you can - it comes with Xcode 11.5. I wrote about it here: https://delphiworlds.com/2020/08/using-a-prior-ios-or-macos-sdk-with-delphi/

    iOS libcrypto.a, libssl.a

    Sorry, I remember now that I did not obtain them from there. Trouble is: I cannot remember exactly where I obtained them, however I've now added them here: https://github.com/DelphiWorlds/Kastri/tree/master/ThirdParty/OpenSSL/1.0.2o/iOS

    ios webview credentials

    I expect you'd need to patch the TBaseWebViewDelegate.AuthenticateForHost method in FMX.WebBrowser.Delegate.Cocoa unit, and pass the username and password instead of using TDialogServiceAsync.InputQuery. I'd recommend submitting a feature request in the Quality Portal for an OnAuthenticate (or similarly named) event to make this easier.

    iOS Location

    I've already answered your email, but for the benefit of others: On iOS, you can check what the user has authorized with: TCLLocationManager.OCClass.authorizationStatus which will return one of the following values: kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized = 3; // User has authorized location services ("always" on iOS 8+) kCLAuthorizationStatusDenied = 2; // User denied authorization for your app, or they turned off location services in the device settings, or the device is in airplane mode kCLAuthorizationStatusNotDetermined = 0; // App is yet to request permission for location services kCLAuthorizationStatusRestricted = 1; // User is unable to authorize location services due to restrictions such as parental controls kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorizedAlways = kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized ; // See kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorized kCLAuthorizationStatusAuthorizedWhenInUse = 4; // User has authorized location services only when the app is in use (from iOSapi.CoreLocation unit) If your app needs location services and the status is kCLAuthorizationStatusDenied, you could present a message asking if they would like to change the settings, and if they do, execute OpenSettings: uses Macapi.Helpers, iOSapi.Foundation, iOSapi.UIKit, iOSapi.Helpers; function UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString: NSString; begin Result := CocoaNSStringConst(libUIKit, 'UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString'); end; procedure OpenSettings; begin TiOSHelper.SharedApplication.openURL(TNSURL.Wrap(TNSURL.OCClass.URLWithString(UIApplicationOpenSettingsURLString))); end; This will take them to the Settings app, and show the settings specific to your app (there may be a little delay in it changing to the settings for the app)

    XCode 12 and Delphi - any volunteers?

    I've been using it for the past few days. The main issue at the moment is that Delphi does not import the iOS 14 SDK correctly, so it cannot be built against. Related issue: debugging on an iOS device with iOS 14 is hosed. Deploying works, debugging does not.

    Bulding an app to test push alerts in iOS

    You appear to have 2 certificates on the Mac that are the same. Perhaps one is expired. To check this, on the Mac in Applications/Utilities, run the Key Chain Access app, ensure that expired certificates are listed by clicking Show Expired Certificates in the View menu, and select login in the Keychains list, and My Certificates in the Category list: For any expired certificates, right-click them and click "Delete"

    Bulding an app to test push alerts in iOS

    The bundle identifier needs to match the identifier given to the App Id that was created for the application on the Apple Developer website, e.g I created this one for testing Firebase Cloud Messaging (for myself - you need to use your own): The convention is to use reverse domain notation (if you have one), or at least something that should be globally (literally) unique. This is also the App Id that you would have enabled Push Notifications for:

    "Self-updating" terminal services DLL

    I expect this is not going to be possible, however I thought I'd ask just in case someone has a brainwave of some kind. I'm working on a DLL which implements a virtual channel for Windows terminal services, and a desired function is for it to be able to "self-update". It fetches a file which is the new version of the DLL, and is supposed to "move" the file in-place. Needless to say I've tried to make it work, with the inevitable "access denied" errors when either attempting to rename the original file then replace it, or just copy over it.
  17. Please refer to: https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-30989 It has been happening to me, however I had not reported it as yet. I had also planned to attempt to debug the issue - perhaps Thomas can?

    Build Project

    Without having the source of the project (or a reproducible example), it might be difficult to discover what the problem is

    Build Project

    Might be wrong/incompatible NDK settings. This is what I have for 10.3.3:

    Grep search empty window with 10.4.1

    Note to self: double triple check where the DLL is being loaded from 😞

    Grep search empty window with 10.4.1

    Yes

    Grep search empty window with 10.4.1

    I'm getting the blank Grep window, too.

    .aab file to google playstore

    You could send it if you like, however I think it may be resolved only by seeing the code being executed at startup. You can direct message me the source if you like. I will treat it in confidence.

    .aab file to google playstore

    Seems to be stuck in an eternal loop. Does it work as an .apk? What exactly are you doing with Firebase in the app?
