Hi, I am interested on opinions on how to measure the user activity at their endpoint. This means which functions they are using, and how long it takes each function execution. In my case I have an user interface in Delphi Windows VCL and Android FMX invoking using rest server-side functions in Java. I want to improve UX but for this it would be useful to know what parts of the system are used and how long user waits. I found that there is a free platform with source code from embarcadero, AppAnalytics, that looks nice, but I think that it is unable to record function duration. Anyone had experience with this platform? Makes sense to try to expand it? Or do you know similar platforms or libraries that may provide nice support for this need? TIA

Hi, I have a customized project version of my product per each customer. When a component vendor releases a new version of their component I would like to use it in just one customer, and after extensive testing I would decide if implementing it in other customer versions makes sense. Is there a way to deal with several complete component setups in a single delphi installation? If not directly, is there a way to automate (ie a .bat script) the changing of all the configuration files involved in the setup, going forward and backwards according to the project I need to deal with at the moment? Any other strategies helping to handle my needs of specific component sets per customer are welcome! TIA

Amazing answers! thanks to you all. I will try Anders' scripts, as they seem specifically useful to automate the process.

Docwiki says that there is a 100mb for iblite but there is not a limit for ibtogo. https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Alexandria/en/InterBase_ToGo Anyway for desktop ibtogo has cost. For mobile it's a free deployment if you have Rad Studio enterprise. Iblite is free, but restricted. Maybe you can contact Embarcadero and look if they thought about using ibtogo for free for demo purposes provided you bring business when you sell your app. Otherwise you may use iblite for demo systems storing the images as files and only the path to them in db... not ideal but free... Good luck
