I like alliterations, what about "total tire travel"? https://dictionary.reverso.net/german-english/Leistung

Even so, is TWINDSM.DLL you're using also 64-bits? (Is this the place to get current ones?)

Funny thing is, I recently had to think back at how I started with Delphi. Yes I did a bit of Turbo Pascal before, but I can't clearly remember what exactly it was I needed to get fluent in Delphi. As far as I can vaguely remember, it all did start with the documentation and the 'get stated' tutorial. Even if something like that covers the bases, the next step should be obvious. You should have enough knowledge to start a simple project. I remember my first Delphi project was a good old numbers to roman numerals converter. And I took off from there. (And about the initial discussion, sorry but I can't help it, I want people to know: If you know what you're doing, and really really need only the JSON and nothing extra, I've written my own no frills JSON parser here)

Saving a large project takes soooo Loooonnnnggg..

Would mounting a RAM-disk (perhaps with something like ImDisk) work with speeding it up? -
I use both TortoiseGit and https://gitforwindows.org/ without any problem. Comitting shouldn't feel like it's not easy. I've worked with TortoiseSVN (and still do) as well, and with git you just need to remember you're comitting to something local and still need to push to a remote somewhere. (and/or fetch and merge)

Can TFDQuery (SQLite) work as fast as TFDmemtable ?

ISAPI on Windows 2016, IIS 10: Freeze Issue Test Case
stijnsanders replied to hsvandrew's topic in Network, Cloud and Web
Because of the problems with Delphi's own ISAPI units, and because I'm always searching to have the thinnest possible wrapper around things, I've created my own ISAPI units for my own web-solution: https://github.com/stijnsanders/xxm#xxm There's a lot more in the project where the entire website compiles into a single library, and the ISAPI handler (or the Apache handler, or the SCGI handler) can re-compile the library if the source has changes, or auto-update the library when a new version is available, all hot-loaded by suspending incoming requests a little while unloading the old and loading the new. But in this specific case I wonder if you would run into the same problem if you base your project on xxm. -
TJson - Strip TDateTime property where value is 0?
stijnsanders replied to Lars Fosdal's topic in Network, Cloud and Web
In case anyone would be interested. Because when working with Variants with ADO, and because I really dislike long lists of overloads, I've created my own JSON handler fully based on Variants (and arrays of Variants, and Variants holding IUnknown derivatives...): https://github.com/stijnsanders/jsonDoc#jsondoc And Variant has a Null value as well, which could solve this problem. (And also a varDate VarType, but I just notice now that my jsonDoc converts from varDate to JSON, but not correctly back, hmm.. but like Attila Kovacs says above, it's open source so you could just add a type handler any way you like) -
RemObjects SDK is adding channels based on Grijjy Foundation!
stijnsanders replied to Esteban Pacheco's topic in Network, Cloud and Web
Is there a page that lists alternatives? I would like to list my Delphi+HTTP platform there also so people can check it out and decide what would suit them best: https://github.com/stijnsanders/xxm It started as a way to use the Delphi compiler to create dynamic web-pages, and not so much a API/ORM/Data-connector style HTTP+Delphi setup you see with almost all the other solutions. I kept a strong focus on having everything for the website in a single DLL, and have the option of switching the same DLL between IIS, Apache or anything really. And even hot-swapping the DLL for a next version of the DLL, suspending new requests a little to unload the old DLL and load the new one instead. This is also something I haven't seen with other Delphi for the web solutions out there... -
I myself mostly use MSXML2_TLB.pas imported from the type library of Microsoft XML itself, not Delphi's take on it which makes things unneccessarily complicated. Also what you may need is to set LDocument.setProperty('SelectionNamespaces','xmlns="urn:iso:std:iso:20022:tech:xsd:camt.053.001.02"'); to make it work
-
Also use PAnsiChar instead of string. It's a stricter translation of C’s *char and Delphi has great auto conversion to and from string with it
-
I'm not familiar with the PaxCompiler, but what I read about it, it sounds somewhat similar to DWScript, perhaps it's worth looking into porting over to something like that?

I'm used to other on-web-page editors to have Ctrl+K pop up the 'link' dialog box so I can paste a URL. Here you have to click the link icon. I've updated my original post. -

version control system Version Control System
stijnsanders replied to Soji's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
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...- 49 replies

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.

Strange Behaviour of FillChar for Non Byte Array Arrays.

Haha! That's a question of mine! I wonder if it's still the same asm in 64-bits. -
RTTI and EXE file size: how to shrink your executable 2 times
stijnsanders replied to Kryvich's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
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?- 16 replies

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

Does anyone have some library/unit to make coding of tokeniser/parser/somekind of tree easier?
stijnsanders replied to Tommi Prami's topic in Algorithms, Data Structures and Class Design
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 -
Delphi and Java Cryptography Extension (JCE)
stijnsanders replied to Richard_Stevens's topic in Network, Cloud and Web
Those are all response headers, do you get to see the request headers as well? -
Delphi and Java Cryptography Extension (JCE)
stijnsanders replied to Richard_Stevens's topic in Network, Cloud and Web
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?
