    D12 - No more "unknown custom attributes"

    Same here, restarted the IDE, now I'm having the warnings. I'll keep an eye on that, I'm not dumb, there were no warnings.

    wuppdi Welcome Page for Delphi 11 Alexandria?

    Thank you for this plugin @gkobler. (The Download link is 404 on the English version of the website.) Could you move the icons to resources or over-load them from files if they exist? Or just provide a setting to turn them off? On the occasion, of course.

    Download link is 404 on the English version of the page (It's cool that you can have multiple favorite groups... I really like the idea!)

    What is otares?

    Any readings on that? I can't find anything on it, just the annoying otares kept, res discarded messages at compile time.

    Yes I did that already.

    Why are you asking? Source?

    What is otares?

    Alright, I'll believe you, for now. But I can't seem to find the string "otares" (other than OTARes...) in any of the emba binaries or the registry (except in the file history), nor can I get Delphi to generate one. I'll consider it to be Nessie's droppings until someone can show me how to make Delphi spit out otareses.

    What is otares?

    I read that but I still don't get it how the dpk becomes: {$R *.res} {$R *.otares} and then the warning that the latter will be kept and the res will be dropped. This all makes no sense to me.
  10. Is there somewhere in the IDE something which would show me a list about the generated files after a build/compile? I would like to see the full path of every single files, also bpl's, dcp etc... Otherwise I have to write one..

    Overview of the generated files after build/compile

    I understand, but it's unnecessary to argue over subjective matters. When migrating dozens of third-party packages to newer IDEs, I find it more efficient to detect configuration errors by observing the compiler's output. However, since I have already implemented a file monitor, there is no longer any need to debate this issue.

    Overview of the generated files after build/compile

    https://github.com/bero/DirMonitorDemo + TFileNotifier.BeforeCompile / AfterCompile does the trick. There is some extra noise in the log and only local monitoring, but it's fine.

    I'm sorry to hear that. Get well soon.

    I will if I fail 😉

    It should be; it would spare a lot of headaches when migrating projects to new IDEs.

    Delphi 12 is available

    rotfl, so much about multiline strings i'm begging since ages for a directive excluding blocks from the formatter..... @Marco Cantu it would give you a break too

    D11.3 Surfaces a Bug in 8-Year-Old Code that reads DBF file...

    Yes, but then you set up the fields' FData to point to there +iTmp and later you are trying to read the data from there, and AV raises. But if I'm wrong just ignore me, I had only a minute to look into it.

    D11.3 Surfaces a Bug in 8-Year-Old Code that reads DBF file...

    "Data" is not initialized in your demo GetMem(Data, iRecordLen); and that's it, it ponts to trash

    Club 12

    So, I've updated to Delphi 12 from Berlin, and I have to say, it's a big {expletive} WOW, especially during the first couple of hours. What immediately stands out is that the IDE is much faster, both in terms of code and graphics. (There were zero issues installing it and both old and new IDE's are running parallel.) But as I proceed, some questions are slowly arising... I'm currently converting my experts, and I can't find the clipboard history window/function in Delphi 12. Has it been removed? Also, the web is full of help files with custom managed records and their constructors and destructors, but it doesn't work and I accidentally found a user comment on Marco's blog that it became the initialize and finalize operators. Does it? Is there any reading on how this evolved and if there are any drawbacks/pitfalls or can I start converting my "smart" objects to use that?
  20. Oh yeah, this should be addressed too.
  21. the path to controls.res is in the library (options/language/delphi/library), it's the first entry $BDSLIB/$platform/blabla, use procmon to see what happens

    Thank you Stefan, I think this one: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Sydney/de/Benutzerdefinierte_verwaltete_Records And google gave me that link, maybe it shgould be deleted then.

    I see, thanks. I had that on Ctrl-Shift-F1 while cycling through the items with multiple F1 presses while holding the Ctrl-Shift key. I'll just reimplement this function then, not a big deal. I can even make sure that only text copied or previously pasted into the IDE appears there, so it stops "spying".

    Introducing Delphi Uses Helper

    thx for the november update too
  25. me neither, I just read what he wrote So maybe he could store the group number to the integer, as he is writing he is using this as a lookup table.
