Sometimes scale settings more than 100% makes problems. Try it with 100%

Have installed Parnassus Navigator, will try to deinstall them.

this is what process explorer shows when the IDE hangs

Good sugestion, will try it. You can wait for hours.. the IDE still hangs

After Install D12.1 it looks like ok, but all win64 path settings are lost 😞 Hade to reinstall my 3-party components

Does anyone have the same problem as me when selecting several components (visible as well as non-visible) on a form in the IDE. Either by Ctrl-clicking or just with the mouse and then pressing Ctrl-C, the CPU output of the BDE.exe task goes up and the IDE is blocked/freezing. You can then only end the task and have to restart the IDE. The problem has existed for some time, but since D11, D12 and D12.1 it happens more and more frequently.

New version 1.0.5.B25 are available. At the moment just for D12

OK, I have also seen that the registry is updated immediately. I was of the opinion that this only happens when the IDE is closed. So I can insert a refresh button.

i told you there are some event from the ToolsAPI where i can update the list

But the registry is only updated/written when Delphi is closed, so you have no change while Delphi is running.

I don't really understand your question. Because when the IDE is started, the registry is read out, then every change is recorded via an event and updated in the rescent files. Therefore a refresh of the registry is not necessary.

In the meantime, I have come up with a solution. I have debugged something in the library. I found out that if the protocol is set to "ipLocal", the port is not taken into account. You have to change the protocol to "ipTCPIP" and set the host to "localhost", then it works. Follow the final code FUNCTION TfrmMain.GetFirebirdServerInfo: boolean; VAR FDIBInfo: TFDIBInfo; AVersion: TIBInfo.TVersion; AConfig: TIBInfo.TConfig; BEGIN Result := False; IF (teFirebirdInstallPath.Text = '') AND (teFirebirdVersion.Text = '') THEN BEGIN FDIBInfo := TFDIBInfo.Create(Self); TRY FDPhysFBDriverLink.VendorLib := teVendorLibrary.Text; FDIBInfo.Protocol := ipTCPIP; FDIBInfo.DriverLink := FDPhysFBDriverLink; FDIBInfo.Host := 'localhost'; FDIBInfo.Port := spePort.Value; FDIBInfo.UserName := teUsername.Text; FDIBInfo.Password := tePassword.Text; FDIBInfo.GetVersion(AVersion); teFirebirdVersion.Text := AVersion.FServerStr; FDIBInfo.UserName := teUsername.Text; FDIBInfo.Password := tePassword.Text; FDIBInfo.GetConfig(AConfig); teFirebirdInstallPath.Text := AConfig.FServerPath; Result := True; FINALLY FDIBInfo.Free; END; END ELSE BEGIN Result := True; END; END;

I use the FB5 dll 32bit version. FDPhysFBDriverLink1.VendorLib := 'D:\Temp\fbclient32_500.dll'; FB3 would be the follow FDPhysFBDriverLink1.VendorLib := 'D:\Temp\fbclient32_311.dll'; I renamed the dll as follow FB3.0.11 32/64bit -> fbclient32_311.dll / fbclient64_311.dll FB4.0.4 32/64bit -> fbclient32_404.dll / fbclient64_404.dll FB5.0.0 32/64bit -> fbclient32_500.dll / fbclient64_500.dll

Stupid... the other solution would basically work, but it doesn't pay attention to the port

How can i use this without to connect to a specify database?
