Are you within a professional environment like work? They may have a firewall and forbid the connection to the server.

Did you try with public Wifi or use your 4G connection on your smartphone as a hotspot to bypass possible restrictions?

It won't work for iOS unfortunately if I'm correct.

Hi,

 

For 10.4, getit gives an error, I could not reach the developer.
How can I install for 10.4?

From Petit I select LockBox 3.7 and install it without troubles.

If asked to continue executing the script, say yes.

You can't contact the developer. TurboPower doesn't exist any longer, for more than 10 years.

But they were nice enough to release the source code. You might find them on Github and create issues tickets there if required.

By the way, it seems to not support iOS. Only Windows, macOS and Android.

Yes, as soon as you have the storyboard file created, it's going to be fullscreen.

If you have a storyboard file, delete it. Launch Delphi, select iOS as your target and run the app.

That should be enough

Mhhh.. just tried in a macOS VM at work and I do have the breakpoints working. Strange.

I also tried back once back home and guess what... it is working now. For how long I have no clue.

Pretty weird... I have the same config on both RadStudio as it's the same VM in which I develop under Windows 10 and target iOS.

Very strange.

Thanks all anyway

Hi,

Just tried to debug an iOS app from within the IDE but when launched on the iPhone, all breakpoints are marked as invalid and the app doesn't stop on any of them.

Even an empty app with a breakpoint in FormCreate doesn't work.The Events window says

Module Load: dyld. No Debug Info. Base Address: $0000000104D8C000. Process Project1 (1774)
Module Load: Project1. Has Debug Info. Base Address: $0000000102D34000. Process Project1 (1774)

No Debug Info for dyld...

Am I missing something?
Thanks for any clue.

(I'm in Debug mode of course, not Release)

Xcode 11.5 and iOS SDK 13.5

Pretty smart. Should have thought about that.

I'll try this right away.

Ok I tried DBeaver but unfortunately it doesn't know Interbase.

I'll write an app myself I guess. Shouldn't be that complicated.

Sqlite -> Interbase doesn't seem as an option for most people

Mmmh in my case, it's not FixInsight that crashes.
It's Gexperts that crashes. If I don't have FixInsight, Gexperts closes gracefully when the IDE exits.

So FixInsight, like other components or tools, is probably changing something in the IDE that, as a side effect, makes GExperts crash

I'm going to snapshot my full install, then remove FixInsight and see how it behaves. 
Coming back to this forum with results.

This is a known bug, when exiting Delphi 10.3.n Rio or Delphi 10.4

GExperts creates an error.

EAccessViolation in module rtl270.bpl ... in module bds.exe

Followed by another one :

Exception EAssertionFailed in module GExpertsRS104.dll at ...
Call DeactivateFontInfo before calling this.

....SynTextDrawer.pas line 475

Since I'm installing Sydney 10.4 I realized (thanks to my VM Snapshots) that GEpxerts behaves perfectly until I install TMS FixInsight.

If I take FixInsight out, then the problem is gone.
That may be one lead to follow.

I have many TMS Components that coexist without problem with GExperts. It seems to appear only once FixInsight is installed.

Some users may have that SynTextDrawer error too without this component, but you never know.

Just my two cents

Thanks all.

Rebasedata doesn't work the way I want, it's SQLite -> Interbase and it offers the other way around.

Yes, I'd like to skip the create table equivalence nightmare before a dump/source

But it looks like I won't have much choice to do this manually 😞 

Thanks

Steve

Hi,

I'd like to test drive Interbase ToGo for perf compared to my current SQLite DB on mobile apps. In real world.

Does anybody know of any free tool that can convert to and from Interbase <--> SQLite?

I have TMS Data Modeler, but it doesn't transfer data.

Any clue would be welcome.

Thanks to all

No answwer about that?

Would be nice actually.

Instead of moving that file, isn't it better to put it to the right place right away and deal with a flag in a DB to know whether it has been initialized or not?

Can you try to fully reinstall a naked Windows 10 VM machine and just 1 copy of RadStudio in it?
That's what I did for a long time now.

A new Rad Studio version? I start from my Windows 10 naked template.

Make all the Windows Updates

Install RadStudio

Then I dedicate that Windows VM to development. I'm sure nothing else interferes like PowerDVD, Quicken, etc... who also install drivers that might conflict with something. All those non development Windows apps are installed in another Windows 10 VM.

It's a one time full job to create an empty Windows 10 VM but it is well worthy.

Then if it's still crashing in a Windows10+RAD VM you should use one of your support tickets.

Tip: Now and then, I update my empty Windows10 VM template and compress it again to store it somewhere. This way, the delta between the last windows update and the ones available on the current day is not growing too much and updates are faster.

Mhhh.

Just in case, here is my Display setting for my Windows 10 64bit VM

See the bottom note to see whether it's your case (Vulkan libraries) 

No problem on my side.

VMWare Fusion Professional Version 11.5.1 (15018442)

Loaded the demo and then loaded the mattress data file.

Works without problem.

The VM Is Windows10 Pro 1909

Here is a screen shot

Hi,
I'm using a TTabControl and the TTabItems show very very small fonts just on iOS.

If you compile the MultiView demo they provide, you may see this as well, so I guess I'm not doing anything wrong.

Here is an example of how it looks like on Windows, macOS and Android (fine) and then on iPad and iPhone...

From top to bottom: Android, macOS, Windows, iPhone, iPad

The "All" and "Needed" texts are about the same size to the item (toothpaste here).

On iOS the TabItem font size it's about 20-30% of the regular one.

I tried Platform behavior or styled to no success

Any idea?
Thanks for your lights

Ok for those of you wondering the same thing I got an email from Embarcadero.

You need a IB Server to have change view. It's on the server that lies the mechanism and where the data is processed.
You can't use change views between, say, two IBToGo, like one on a smartphone and one embedded on a desktop.

They both would ask to connect to the Server to process the changes. Too bad.

The Interbase ChangeView feature is really appealing to me but I was wondering whether you can use this without servers.

Mainly, I would be interested to use IBToGo on my mobile device apps and the desktop equivalent, which would also have IBToGo.

All databases embedded only on each device (mobile or desktop).

Is it still possible to use Change Views between two IBToGo databases with zero IB Server? Just talking from iOS to a Mac or Android to Windows, Android to iOS? In one word IBToGo <--> IBToGo.

Or do ChangeViews work only via a server tier? What they call the "central database" (reference)...

Thanks for any clarification.

Hum, you want to say DisplayText ?

 

Yes. Why did I write DisplayFormat? But this didn't change anything though.

I report, I think about two times https://quality.embarcadero.com/browse/RSP-22962 , this bug. If you want to use the format of livebindings  try to use

Format('%%.2f', 1*value)

That did it. Funny! Works on macOS now.

Thanks a lot

Crazy bug though.

Ok that did it...Almost
I probably screwed something somewhere in my steps replicating your instructions.

It works for Windows, iOS and Android but not for macOS-64 where all values are 0.00.

Any idea why? Is the FilleControlToField behaving differently for macOS?

For those facing number formatting

I have a BindSourcePrototype with the field names matching exactly the Database fields linked to the app (via an Adapter).

So in LiveBindings, I hooked it from the Prototype to the TListview.
Then, as suggested, I selected the link between the prototype and listview in the LiveBinding Window.

Then you can edit the link properties  (the TGeneratorFieldDefs property) and set its CustomFormat to DisplayFormat

Then, in the structure window, select the same field in the LinkFillControlToField branch, open the FillExpressions one, select your field (the one to format)

ControlMember and SourceMemberName should be hooked to your field.

But the CustomFormat should be set to Format('%%.2f', %s)

Then it works.

Thanks a lot.

Ok I will investigate this in the coming days and come back with success/failure as soon as possible 🙂

Euh ben non, il est pas content.

Adding DisplayText is refused. It complains about that info to be unknown.

Also if I right-click on the LinkListControlToField object and edit the expressions, all fields are grayed out and DisplayText is actually shown in the disabled fields (in the dialog box)...

Now where do I specify the format itself, because I guess I still have to do this somewhere?

Thanks

Hi,

I have aTListView hooked to an underlying Database where one of the values is a currency, a price.

My ListView is bound to the DB via a PrototypeBindSource and an adapter to switch from dummy values to the DB content.

In that Prototype field I have the one field set a currency and its CustomFormat property set to #.00

I tried any kind of formatting without success. The format is ignored.

I need 2 decimals, but zeros ( 0 ) are skipped.

No matter what, trailing zeros are ignored.

12 is shown as 12 instead of 12.00

12.6 is shown as 12.6 instead of 12.60

etc

Any idea? Should I get that value from the DB and format it as a string myself?
In that case, what's that CustomFormat field worth for?

Thanks for any clarification.
