Its ALL been pretty slow to integrate Tomato functionality, this is 2-3 years (or longer) and been promised or mentioned for this amount of time. I personally was happy to see the dev but NOT happy to see it didn't even seem to be close to ready. We have had so many less than reliable C++ releases I'm just hoping it will actually be functional. My impression was if they can't show it functional, how close could it be in terms of usable, my guess is most of it won't make the next cut. I'm not part of the Beta at present.

Hello, I was looking at testing a IOS app on an older Intel Mac-mini but it seems to require PA Server 12.2.10.3 on the Mac side. I've not been able to find the 12.2.10.3 PAServer, anyone have a clue where it might be located ? I have looked under the EMB website which has a PAServer for 10.4.0 and 10.4.1 but not the 10.4.2 Mac package. Frustrating to say the least. Any help appreciated.

Much appreciated, yes I did test that and for some reason it was not the correct version. Maybe it was a cache issue. After thinking about it the next day I found the correct PAServer21.pkg under 10.4.2 PAServer directory. I think I must have looked under the wrong EMB version, after cleaning up some of my installs I re-checked and found the file. Some days.......

I was just trying to install some additional platforms and its seems getit-olympus.embarcadero.com is down for me at least. Has an Intrernal Server Error indicated on selection dialog. Are others having this issue ? Anyone know if there is a status page for EMB servers ? Be nice if we could see what is up or down. Argghhh onto a different project it seems....

Looks like things have returned.

Just a general query. On opening a project and coding I get Code Insight indexing the complete project each time it is opened. There is a setting on the IDE to restart the Code Insight on project start which is fine. I have a 2G RAM disk drive which the project is configured to write the intermediate outputs to which is working fine. I'm just wondering if its possible or a good idea to get the CodeInsight to write to the RAM disk since the indexing happens all the time as well. Just wondering if people have thoughts on this or not ?

mklink /D <project_path>/__astcache D:/ Run in command prompt as Admin. As mentioned this particular project is C++ related so does differ potentially to what Delphi would be generating.

Not sure what the scenary refers to but the __astcache mklink was done through command prompt if thats what you mean.

yep mklink was what I used.

Thanks I have seen that in the past but not looked at that docs for a while. I'll have a play around, a test C++ project I have just been testing with a directory link for the __astcache file to the RAM disk. Working so far, I'll have to see if there is any speed improvement but at least it might be saving some disk writes. I have a fast m2 drive so it may not make a huge difference apart.

Been non-functioning for so many years even with the Nov 2020 roadmap you've lost so many users and confidence on this its crazy. We have wasted thousands and not been able to use the product and loss of functionality has been huge as well.

Yeah Stefane that was interesting about the game loop, even better its a C++ example.

If you turn on the old compiler for the project it will work again. Under 10.4.1 it works for the new compiler when you don't batch compile. If your on subscription they now have Twin Compile GetIt plugin that with my testing works with code completion and super fast compile of big projects. Amazing that they allow now that to be installed for Pro as well but need subscription to download that, well else buy it. From 10.1.2 was the last edition Code Completion worked well, truly a poor effort by EMB on this.

If you file a QP probably worth noting the RSP in a follow up post so people can track this issue.

Yep I believe its a bug in 10.4.1, debug not available for DLL at all. I tested in 10.1.2 and it works without issue, you can step into the DLL code no problem. I'd say a Quality portal entry will be required. I think a friend struck this issue in 10.4 and maybe 10.3.X just a bit of a blur as these issues seem to happen so often for C++ and EMB quality.

Is there already a CPP main topic / category that questions can be asked on ? Or would it be a good idea to add a main fourm topic for that ?

Could it be the SSL version being used on the server ? Might not be negotiating the correct version ? Could check if they are restricted to v1.1 or v1.2, I believe you can set the max version to use at runtime.

My suggestion was in part due to EMB saying they will be dropping there forum and have suggested using Delphi-Praxis and SO. However Delphi-Praxis in my view is a better forum than SO but as always different strokes for different folks. There is a close relationship between C++ and Delphi for so many years to be honest I didnt think it would be a huge deal but maybe it could also be a sub-forum of different languages that also interface with Delphi (Stefan seems on board with that...hee). If no one uses it then just remove it down the track.

For C++ users its a real shame there is yet still no fix for Code Completion not working now for 3-4 years.
