Ok, but I don't understand what you mean. My F-keys works find outside Delphi in this case. What is a "Lock" key ?

This is the code for Supports method. I know the name is bad, SysUtils.Supports is different. But we use this on thousands of places. Too late to change now. Now I also use Pascal Analyzer. That give a warning STW10 Out parameter is read before set (STW10) This section lists out parameters that are read before set in the procedure. https://www.peganza.com/PALHelp/clip0211.png And yes it is correct. First line TObject(ResObj) := nil; Read the out parameter before set it. ResObj have no class in parameter. Reason is that we want to send any subclass derived from TBoldObject. If I set type to TObject that would not work any more. Any suggestion how I can remove the warning and still preserve the implementation ? {: Casting between two objects derived from two different classes Resobj must inherit from aObject @param aObject The object to cast from @param aClass The class to cast to @ResObj The resulting object @return True if successful otherwise false} function Supports(const aObject: TObject; const aClass: TClass; out ResObj): Boolean; overload; begin TObject(ResObj) := nil; if aObject is aClass then begin if not ((aObject is TBoldObject) and (aObject as TBoldObject).BoldObjectIsDeleted) then TObject(ResObj) := aObject; end; result := TObject(ResObj) <> nil; end; Example of usage var myInvoice: TInvoice; // This inherit TBoldObject if Supports(myclass.somelink, TInvoice, myInvoice) begin // code that use myInvoice end;

It is correct. Deleted is not the same as destroyed. A BoldObject is usually persisted in a database. Summary of lifecycle of such object: Some code ask for the object. It is loaded from database to memory. A new instance in memory is created. It can now be used as any normal object. Some code call Delete method. The flag above BoldObjectIsDeleted is now true Some code Synchronize memory with database. Objects that are changed will update rows in database. Objects that are deleted in memory will also be deleted in database. The object will now be destroyed

Yes, BoldObjectIsDeleted is true when object is deleted in memory but remain in database. On next sync memory to database it will be removed from database as well. But how that works is unrelated to question in this case.

I try to use Unit Dependency Analyzer. The target is to cut compile time by find cyclic dependencies in a big project where Unit A use Unit B. And Unit B use Unit A. I have attached a screenshot. How do I read that ? I see for example that AttracsCustomsSpanFetch uses AttracsSystemsGlobals in Implementation section. I see nothing wrong with that. But AttracsSystemsGlobals use BusinessClasses in interface section. And BusinessClasses uses AttracsSystemsGlobals in implementation section. I marked it with red and green. So that is a cyclic dependency, right ? But the dialog show nothing that differ the two cases above. Or did I miss something ?

Internally we didn't agree on that sentence. Anyway a new guy start next week and another one in August. Many complain that there is no jobs for Delphi. At the same time some employers leave Delphi as it is hard to find developers. It don't make sense for me 😊

https://ihateregex.io/ Is good regex resource

How can I add a large text-file as an attachment to a Slackpost? A working example would be great. I use SDriver https://github.com/andrea-magni/SDriver and the included demo works fine to send some strings. What I did so far https://gist.github.com/bero/e675bdf38c6e884be7e08377d6d52009

I want to use Google Cloud logging from Delphi. From https://cloud.google.com/apis/docs/client-libraries-explained While you can use Google Cloud APIs by making direct HTTP requests to the server (or RPC calls where available), we provide client library code for all our Cloud APIs that makes it easier to access them from your favorite languages Of course Delphi is not represented. Any hints on how I can use cloud for logging? It also mention that https://www.fluentd.org can be used from any language. But I still want samples how to use all this in practice. Any help appreciated!

Ok thanks for the feedback. So back to the original question 😊 What is the best or most convenient path to connect and use Google Cloud logging from Delphi? I want to avoid dependencies to third-party components and dll-files if it is possible. But it is not a requirement. Roland

I refer to builtin https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Sydney/en/Using_an_HTTP_Client Regards Roland

Ok I have never used https in Delphi. Just so I understand you correct. Delphi httpclient use openssl? No need to deploy additional dll with exe-file? Where can I find an example of this? The application is deployed on Windows Server 2012 Regards Roland

I am not sure how complicated it would be to use https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Sydney/en/System.Net.HttpClient instead. Grijjy use a dll for SSL. HttpClient use what is available in OS.

Thanks I also found that. I am not found of deploy a dll-file beside the exe- file

I think I found some kind of conflict between TestInsight and MMX Explorer. I have installed Delphi 11 in a VmWare WorkStation VM. Installed TestInsight from https://files.spring4d.com/TestInsight/1.2.0.1/TestInsightSetup.zip Run installer and verified it works fine on a test-project Next install MMX Explorer from https://www.mmx-delphi.de/download/338/ Now I run TestInsight on the testproject and it looks like this So it just show an empty window. No result from the tests. I have the same problem in Delphi 10.4.2. I like both plugins and want them to cooperate better. Anyone with similar experience ? Regards Roland Bengtsson

Good that you manage to fix problem with Toolbar The big 5 mloc project also have a Testproject. I know only a fraction of code is executed in testproject. So I am curious how much. 0.1, 3 or 10 % of all code ? But I also understand now it is technically challenging to get a code coverage of whole project. Reading https://github.com/magicmonty/delphi-code-coverage/blob/master/CodeCoverage/BreakPoint.pas now It use opcode $CC Is it the same kind of breakpoint you use ? Could be there is no silverbullet to get full code coverage without major speed penalty

Does it understand Delphi source ? URL ?

Ah ok. I am sure it will be slow. I have been looking for a tool that cover a whole project for Code coverage. There is https://github.com/magicmonty/delphi-code-coverage. I had a memory there was some kind of problem last time I tried. Maybe I should look again. But still impressive work with your plugin! Regards Roland

Yes the Toolbar is not working in Sydney. But can still use hotkey so no big deal. I have to manually mark each method to enable code coverage. Is it possible to just enable all code in a project for code coverage? My project have about 5 mloc with thousands of methods. It would be handy 😊

Great, will try it now [EDIT] I tried to clone the repo, compiled it and install. I got this error --------------------------- CodeCoverage - Delphi 10.4 - Welcome Page [Built] --------------------------- Registration procedure, Codecoverage@Main.Register in package C:\Attracs\DelphiCodeCoveragePlugin\Packages\Delphi 10.4 Sydney\CodeCoverage270.bpl raised exception class EAbstractError: Abstract Error. Any clue ? /Roland

Well in that case it would be the ultimate test of VCL DPI handling.😊

Delphi IDE is built with Delphi?

So most users here think VCL have poor implementaton for DPI on monitor changes. So what about other platforms on windows. Is it better handled in C#. Java, QT etc?

Attracs company in Finland looking for Delphi developer. Our main application do transport planning and logistics. The office is in Kokkola. Now, most work is done remotely but hopefully, COVID-19 will end someday. So we would prefer someone in the neighborhood. We use Delphi Sydney, Bold for Delphi and Windows. Currently, we are 4 developers plus 2 consultants. In case you are a senior Delphi developer you can also work remotely as freelancer. Experience of ORM or Bold for Delphi is a merit. Ask for more details.
