OAuth2 is the authentication protocol. How the credentials are exchanged is up to the service provider. There are some common ways like pass it in the URL (RESTDebugger) or pass it in the headers, pass it in a JSON Object etc... The service provider will give you the documentation and examples.

The authentication can be implemented in severeal ways. I would sniff the traffic and see the difference oooooor read the manual. Usually there are some "postman" (Application) examples.

is updating UniDAC subscription and letting FD joke for the kids an option?

Make sure you are not exposing more that you want. Make a root directory where your server not going below that dir. One could request with /../ .... files you don't want to expose.

Ahh I see now! This is great. You can decorate the handler method in mars and that's it?

of course, tons of https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_images.asp No, you have to serve the requested file. https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2616 9.3 GET Indy should have already implemented that for you.

you sound like the chatGPT from the 80's

@Stano is this you or the ChatGPT malware is writing?

I'm not sure a combobox is the right decision here as it will slow down the process. I'd stick with a listbox or grid or similar with RETURN key and a button for the rookies.

I think you can remove POSTED_DDE_ACK

Yes, if the file is missing then there is the dproj or a selection splash screen, but I would priorate a config file.

Or you could save an extra file in the project dir like .idever

di^.ServiceAtom := 0; // GlobalAddAtom(PChar('DELPHI32')); di^.TopicAtom := 0; // GlobalAddAtom(PChar('DELPHI32')); it won't answer on 0/0, just on 'system'/'bds' does D7 support DDE anyway?

It's the same if you let's say, would split out the very same functionality into a console app. It will cost you a lot of refactoring. A lot. But with time, you will get the idea, how to arrange your units and classes for the future. I don't know what I have learned, maybe not to be afraid creating units. A lot of units.

Yes. HTTP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertext_Transfer_Protocol

Of course. Every new feature, mostly in console apps if it's possible. The result can be tested and easily moved to a lib or other projects.

that is only FB

Then it's a lie.

what the actual f VAR(n) is?

if it's a string field then you can check against empty string => .AsString = '' , both, empty string and NULL will be true (side note: you can set a field to NULL with ".Clear", if it's a nullable field)

I don't think so. The opposite. My version is more efficient as it only talks to BDE instances. I don't care DDE, neither other apps, it's just for BDE.

Actually the way how AI will kill mankind is not like in terminator or co., but a copy pasted AI code into some nuclear reactor code or similar 😛

I tried to look up this for you and as I changed the remote debugging settings it screwed up my custom Version info what I'm using for building the database connection so I had to restore the dproj from a backup as I could not get it work again. You are on your own now.
