2048 Just for the record. Nothing to do with your question. For file I/O, the "\\?\" prefix to a path string tells the Windows APIs to disable all string parsing and to send the string that follows it straight to the file system. For example, if the file system supports large paths and file names, you can exceed the MAX_PATH limits that are otherwise enforced by the Windows APIs. For more information about the normal maximum path limitation, see the previous section Maximum Path Length Limitation. Because it turns off automatic expansion of the path string, the "\\?\" prefix also allows the use of ".." and "." in the path names, which can be useful if you are attempting to perform operations on a file with these otherwise reserved relative path specifiers as part of the fully qualified path. Many but not all file I/O APIs support "\\?\"; you should look at the reference topic for each API to be sure. Note that Unicode APIs should be used to make sure the "\\?\" prefix allows you to exceed the MAX_PATH.

That would be cool.

MCVE or didn't happen

if FindFirst('C:\*', faAnyFile, searchResult)=0 then begin yadda yadda yadda: if FindFirst(dirName, faAnyFile, searchResult)=0 then begin yadda yadda yadda, yadda yadda?

must be a bad weather in the UK

Dark mode is much worse for the eyes. You should adjust the brightness and contrast to relax your pupils.

Yeah that's me, and I have a touch screen which I think the problem is. I tried my phone, Chrome on a S23 Ultra, it loads, but the GUI is unusable on that small display.

I've tried both, chrome and IE, the same, (they are actually the same nowadays anyway) I managed to get it working once, but the same error has occurred again. However, it wasn't functioning properly. I couldn't see the entire forms and such... ike there's no HDPI support.

now it's working, no HDPI support?

<o> yes, then I log in and I'm getting an empty site

just an empty page, do I need something on the client side?

Doesn't matter. It was an example.

TStringList has 4 other constructors with parameters. This would just pollute the code and cause traffic jams everywhere.

question is, if dfm's are affected too

Report them as false positive, include the exe.

For those who prefer designing an application visually rather than coding it, this could be useful.

sorry, not Sherlock but @Rollo62 https://embt.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/RSS-441 still laughing? 🙂

Thanks Lars, that did the trick indeed. I'm still not satisfied with the new system. It's similar as the "new forum" was = lame AF.

well, at the end it's an April Fools' Joke indeed.

Is this an April 1 joke?

I'm rather concerned about how the multiple windows will interact with older plugins and all of my stuff.

Wow, from now on, you can open the same file multiple times. That's going to be interesting.

that's quite a list

I read something in so from you but I can't find it, it was about the whole rtl float handling is rubbish or something like that. Not sure about the details.
