  1. Lool, I always use Assigned(...) hoping that one day or another it will solve all the situations (either nil or an invalid pointer) 🙂
  2. You are right, those were my fear.
  3. The use of pred here is only the result of copy / paste operation. But I use pred sometimes, especially when there is a dimension of an array in play. In a for / to cycle instead I use normally "-1".
  4. It is not mine, I'm not a chemical tech. I only see the use of the "absolute" directive and ask if there is any issue (in assignement for example). By the way I have tested some uses case and i don't found any issue, it's like a normal array of records. Like I wrote, I had know that there are other methods, I was only curious about "absolute" used in array of records. Thank you all for your interest.

    12.3 April Patch 1.0 failed to install

    I don't know about your issue (I have not any solution). I don't know if you have installed the patch or not, 'cause the note about the patch is present in the about box only if you install it form GETIT.

    No, this is the note about the April Patch. Take care that this is showed ONLY IF YOU INSTALL the patch with GETIT.

    Indy, TauruTLS and TLS 1.3

    Delphi version 12.3 with patch. I used the TaurusTLS from https://github.com/JPeterMugaas/TaurusTLS with bundle version of Embarcadero to activate the use of TLSv1.3. Inside a web server project that I use for testing, I substitute the old PR299 (openSSL 1.x and 3.x wrapper) with TaurusTLS and all is perfect working with really less change. I don't use the component at design time, so with some $IFDEF I adapt the code that can work with old PR299 (TLSv1.3), only a bundle distro (TLSv1.2) and the new TaurusTLS (TLSv1.3 with all the new OpenSSL 3.x DLLs) with only a recompile action. I have more server place with some certificates from Let's encrypt and redirection function (http port 80 -> https port 443) and is all good. Thanks to @Remy Lebeau and @J. Peter Mugaas

    Winapi.Windows.PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION not found

    That's fine with me, because then I copy all the units used as "uses" (NOT COMPONENTS) into the $BDSUSERDIR\Imports folder (in this case the WINMD folder) And in the library paths I add that path (which is specific to the platform). In this way I have a single point (I repeat only for the uses, i.e. those units that represent a stand-alone functionality) under which there are all the "utilities" and that will be copied and maintained for each version of RAD STUDIO. I still have some files from almost twenty years ago that I still use (rarely, only for maintenance of old code ... with the new RAD). "It's an ill wind that blows nobody any good" ... Bye

    Winapi.Windows.PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION not found

    @PeterPanettone If something of WinApi is missing, you can look at this and download the WINMD from getit: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Athens/en/What's_New#WinAPI_Delphi_Headers_from_WinMD_metadata Like they told, Bye P.S.:I use some of those headers to include some functionalities missing in Embarcadero WinApi.

    vsspell ocx and how to use it?

    If you mean me, my last post was just an explanation of your previous post. Far be it from me to criticize you. I understand very well the difficulty in dealing with new things. I wish you good things. I am definitely in the wrong place not knowing enough about C++. Bye

    FIPS 140

    I don't think the answer is simple. It is not enough to have a simple FIPS compliant DB (if there is one) to make "everything" FIPS compliant. The rules of the American administration (if your project refers to this) are very stringent and rigorous (I know 'cause I worked with them years ago). I think it is better to consult with an Embarcadero sales engineer on this.

    vsspell ocx and how to use it?

    Stack overflow is a site suitable for receiving precise and targeted answers on single problems. You can't ask a generic question (like: how do you make a loop in Pascal) and hope that someone will answer. In fact, the question will normally be closed. As a basis, it is assumed that the person asking questions has first "studied" the basis of the language and the techniques related to the question. These are just some of the basics that should be studied before asking questions or addressing any problem... and this applies to any language and not only. On the web, and also in this forum, there are many links to manuals, even free ones, that help in understanding Pascal. Have a good time. Bye

    vsspell ocx and how to use it?

    VSSpell was a, ActiveX component (not free) from "ComponentOne", now "Mescius" company. Since 2023, this was a legacy product 'cause the use of ActiveX tecnology and now it doesn't exist anymore. In some older pages there are some refs. but if you use the download link, only their control panel will be downloaded. So, I don't think there wil be any chance to use it. May be if you have it you can try to derive a "wrapper" or TLB in C++: Bye EDIT: after that I cannot help you more than this 'cause I don't use normally c++

    KSVC 8.0

    I simply open the packages from source directory and compile them in Win64 IDE .... of course installing the design pkg. Take care that the pkg are in DEBUG mode, so you can switch in RELEASE before compile.

    New offline CHM files for Rad Studio 12.3

    April 30, 2025 There are "new" chm offilne help files (they are dated April 08, 2025) at the same link indicated in the original post. The previous files were dated March 24, 2025. I found out because I had to reinstall Rad Studio (Windows installation was destroyed due to a known Microsoft BUG )
  21. Seems that this issue was resolved with this patch: https://blogs.embarcadero.com/rad-studio-12-3-april-patch-available/ SInce yesterday it was available on Getit and now also in the EMB portal.

    Run as admin on unauthorized Windows username

    Why you use '.' for domain in the LogOn function? In the RunAs function you should use CreateProcessAsUser() API, not the CreateProcessWithLogon() .... you don't need to pass the credentials to RunAs, only the token.

    Int, Frac functions and NaN value

    With 12.3 Enterprise I cannot replicate any of these issues. Not even with evaluation panel.
