There was a problem with the Compile Dialog as it was refreshed too frequently and since it's also themed it was very slow. I can't find anything anymore regarding this issue, maybe it has been solved since, but it's easy to check if you disable the dialog and measure the compile time. AFAIR IdeFixPack was targeting this problem too.

There are bunch of "endless loop" hits on zlib from 2015, the one in RTL has a date from 2014, maybe you should re-compress the original data and see if it happens again. That would also make others satisfied when you switch to another lib. Eventually try to decompress it with more recent zlib version. https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/22834/how-to-uncompress-zlib-data-in-unix It would be cool to know the results.

Ctrl+# is the toggle comment menuitem on the editors context menu in the german IDE, not sure though if it has anything to do with whatever it is, but I'm sure you already checked where this "Sender" belongs to.

It is no coincidence that checksums were invented.

Unless it's a trial and triumph.

a swallowed windows message like button down / up, usually when you manipulate the focus inside events, for example

Nope, it has nothing to do with santiago's except the idea is stolen. It's a working plugin without any OTA conventions so it's ugly and would be harder to maintain. But the OTA is somewhat limited to get this plugin thin and versatile, so I had to go this way. Also, getting the breakpoint list from Parnassus depends on code which was bought by emba and gone under without a ripple. 😞

@Dinar It's not just me! 😉 Well, then just press Ctrl+Alt+ArrowUp or Down 😉

@Dinar :)) Sorry, looks like I'm in write only mode 🙂

As an alternative:

@Lars Fosdal I heard that several times and I still can't imagine why not a middle tier, why sp's?

Mind the declaration of those helper routines. The ones needing a parameter are for sure class methods, thus they will as work with aStr.xyz() as with String.xyz(); In this case the ToLower is non-class method, LowerCase is. Now if you wonder why are they called differently, try boolean.ToString(True); and once you found out what is happening try not to scream.

I'm having problems with importing bmecat_2005.dtd under Berlin U3. There are a couple of definitions like: <!ELEMENT GROUP_NAME (#PCDATA)> <!ATTLIST GROUP_NAME lang %langQUALIFIERS; #IMPLIED> which should be a string with an attribute "lang", like: <GROUP_NAME lang="deu">My Group Name</GROUP_NAME> Now, Delphi creates GROUP_NAME as a class with a single property of "lang", so I can't assign a value ("My Group Name") to this element. Am I missing something or is this built in importer a bit retarded? Is there any better tool to create the Delphi classes? thx Edit: Ahh, "class.Text" is the way to go, I had forgotten it, but now I remember.

@Dany Marmur Just look it up:

Ahm, what kind of bull*** is calling a count(*) prior to the actual selection? Who guarantees that the two results will be the same?

Maybe "git diff" and "git blame" would show something useful. You are a team of developers and go with "something is messed up" statements? Usually this come from the clients.

Me too. Also funny one. Especially that you don't understand why would one use an online service to make a complementary/secondary cold-backup in a different geographical location, then you answer your own question in 2 minutes with the burglars.

Are you sure that the font has to be installed? I'm loading a custom font from the resources and it's working fine: // Load custom Fonts before creating any forms ResStream := TResourceStream.Create(hInstance, 'MONTSERRAT_MEDIUM', RT_RCDATA); try AddFontMemResourceEx(ResStream.Memory, ResStream.Size, nil, @FontsCount); finally ResStream.Free; end;

Exactly this is the way I would prefer like David says. If you change xVal to something meaningful, you will see why: Result := isDog or isCat or isHorse;

As you are always obfuscating your code with love, I can't imagine why didn't you go with Result := Ord(a) + Ord(b) + Ord(c) + Ord(Result) > 0;
