Hi Guys, anyone having also these

all over the time. Mostly if i click to a function or procedures name with pressed CTRL, it should jump to the declaration or to the function but it does not, it crashes .... 

i hoped 10.4 is better but not too much ... 

I think the most problems and hangers occur because of too much memory consumption of code-insight etc. I hope, with 10.4 and Language Server this will not happen any more. 

Hope dies last!

Losing 40 minutes of work should be impossible in Rio.

In last case i had no saved files ... don't know why but IDE has not asked my on restart for autorecovering files found ... Normally I click a lot to "Save All" button but in this case it was a complicated project and i forgot this.

I will try to setup the interval to 1 minute, lets see if it helps next time ... or hope 10.4 will not have these problems with such memory consumption ...

I hate it when this happens:

Now work of 40 minutes is lost again. I realy hate it!

In my case, I try to have not more than 2-3 units/forms open at the same time and i try to restart Delphi after a debug sessions. This + disabling Livebinding helps a lot!

In case you have home-grown components, I assume you have done basic leak checking on those.
Not freeing stuff after use can quickly escalate memory usage for database objects. Learned that the hard way.

I create own components now for more than 18 years without problems. Freeing explicit everything i have used. Possible that update of TMS VCL UI Pack or other components have problems now. 

But why delphi does not give the uses memory for debugging free after execution has terminated ? Bad.

It seems that today the hangers happen (sometimes), when i open the cxGridview "Customizing" ... but nothing changed in the last weeks. Same components-version.

Here's fresh opened IDE:

And now after first RUN with debugger and exit application normally:

No, in this case we had two rows in the table!

All

Is it mission impossible to disable the data links on forms when not working on them?

 

It would probably mean that you need to add code to activate the connectivity at run-time.

All of my connectivity is activated in runtime but why we have RAD? I need to activate them in Designtime for a short time to create i.e. the default columns in the grids etc. or to have to possibility to select the databinding.datafields without entering the names of those fields manually... or i'm doing something wrong?

Just now, Lars Fosdal said:

Are there a lot of forms that have design-time data connections?

Yes, i work with DevExpress components for dbEdits or dbGrids (cxGrid) but 5 mins ago i had only two forms open , not too much components <100 on them.

What IDE add-ons/experts do you use?

I have nothing special installed:

- DDevExtensions now uninstalled

- GExperts installed but using only RegEx-Search and Replace

- TSI Language

- MadExcept

today i had this 4-5 times. Its anoying now, currently i had created a new form with a lot of configuration in cxgrid and now all is gone!

Nope, one project and as i know it hangs i try to open only few forms but it happens ...

Are there any files in your projects that are on a network drive?

No, everything is local. Memory consumption of bds.exe goes up to 1,5 GB. Have tried to wait ... some hours but it hangs. Only way is to kill the task and all programming is lost!

HI Folks,

after latest patches (can't say which of them, installed all available patches) i have the IDE hanging a lot ... and all not saved work is lost! this happended this week on each day min 2-3 times. At the time of hanging the taskmanager shows this:

So my question is: Is this happening only at my side or do you also have such hangers and problems with Rio 10.3? I have idefixpack installed and dDevExtensions because without them IDE is much slower.

Thanks for your Tips @vfbb and @Rollo62. After i have recreated project file now it works.

@vfbb @Rollo62 Thanks for those tips. We had added 64 at a later time, possible that this is the problem. Will try to recreate the project and add later all services again. 

We will see the difference latest tomorrow after new app version has been published by playstore.

Is the app in the PlayStore already switched to AAB Bundles, or do you try to update APK ?

I use AAB bundles

I use Rio for Android developement. It creates my app which is already available in the playstore but i think something is wrong with Rio when it creates the output with project configuration changed to appstore. 

@Marco Cantu are there any limitations known when it comes to 32/64bit and services with Rio? 

In "developement" everything works very good (api target 26) but when app is published to google playstore and i install it from there, none of the services can be started and also logcat does not show anything.

Thanks for some tips / hints.

@Dave Nottage Is it possible that your servicecomponents are not working for apps published over playstore? I have the problem at the moment, that the app in release configuration installed to device works very good, starting background service ... BUT if i publish same app the service can't be startet not foreground and not in background. I don't get any exceptions. I have everything same in project settings, same configuration only change is selecting "application store" instead of "developement" under "Android64bit - Configuration" in project tree.

 

Any hints? What can be the reason for this?

 

edit:

Now i see with your DeviceLens 1.1.0 the first message on starting the app is an red exception with this text:

Not starting debugger since process cannot load the jdwp agent.
 

Wohoow, again we got it work. @Dave Nottage you use a lot of constructor override in your demo's so we've used them also BUT: these work if you install the app from Rio onto Android-device without problems. If you send your app to Playstore and it comes back, the constructor is never called so a lot of funtionality does not work. Needed 1 week to find this out.

Info for others: Don't use constructor override on forms and datamodules. Instead use the events for tform and tdatamodule where you can create the onCreate and onDestroy events from Objectinspector.

Any informations available if 10.4 has better support for Android (32/64) bit? Any optimizations or new functionalities?

Nothing is used, only Delphi code.

Wow! Great job. Which fileformats will you be able to view?

Good job. Are you using a own viewer component which reads all those files or is it using installed applications for the file-extensions?

@Alexander Sviridenkov

You are the "Killer" - thank you sooo much ... When it is available?
