I made my own diff just to get it the way I want it: DirDiff What I didn't want is the stuff that's the same for both twice on screen. The last re-work I did on it enabled diffs between 3 or more files, but that's still not exactly what's needed for conflict resolution. I've open-sourced it here: Github...

And then there's also memory refresh and other system interrupts that will happen inbetween your program. If you have a multi-processor machine, what you could also do is set processor affinity to force the thread(s) to run on a single core, to minimize interruptions like this.

Haha! That's a question of mine! I wonder if it's still the same asm in 64-bits.

Aren't there compiler settings you could set so the 'Release' build would exclude RTTI, so you could still have it in the 'Debug' build?

@Daniel, yes the URL https://en.delphipraxis.net/rssalltopics.xml/ looks exactly like what I was looking for.

Haha! I no longer need TListView for displaying feeds: https://github.com/stijnsanders/feeder#feeder

I once dabbled a bit in parsers and compilers, and also started on a Delphi parser, but never completed it. I've open-source what I got here: https://github.com/stijnsanders/dparse

Those are all response headers, do you get to see the request headers as well?

Basic Auth is, if I recall correctly, adding a request header 'Authorization' with a value of 'Basic ' followed by username+':'+password Base64 encoded. Do you have anything that is calling the API already, running locally, so you could use a browser debugger or Fiddler on and intercept the API call?

That is a bit vague. Do you know how JCE is used to encrypt the REST API? If it's used behind the scenes to perform what is needed for the security of the https protocol, that should get handled by the transport layer.

If I remember correctly, the main thing of magic beauty tweaking the Windows GUI happens in the CreateParams override. Many nice things happen there if you know what you're doing. I personally like the Params.WndParent field, (though modern Delphi versions since I learned about it have introduced "Application.MainFormOnTaskbar")

https://en.delphipraxis.net/discover/38/ ??? You select 'items only' and 'topics' and still get replies? What I want is a list of new items only...

What if one really wants to list only the new forum posts? I tried https://en.delphipraxis.net/discover/new.xml but that doesn't work.
