I see the job post is in German.  Do you have an English translation? 

Sadly not, that's why I've posted parts of it above.

Can anyone confirm that Delphi's rtti system simply does not handle enumerated types if they are not zero-based?

Saly: yes, that's the case.

Are there any particular security update, unavailable for Windows 7, that you can't do without?

Any and all fixing security holes. I do not follow them in detail, 😉 but remembering some news about some big ones within the last year.

Why would you continue to use Windows 7, which has absolutely no support since more than two years? I understand that you may not be interested in the newest features, etc. But security updates in those days is something I would not want to miss out on...

Or does the official plugin has the same "code completion"-issues as in the Delphi IDE ?

They are very similar to each other, as they both use the same supporting services, however, I felt that VSCode - when it works, works a little better, due to the way the whole code completion system is designed.

HTML/JavaScript is single-threaded by definition of all browsers at this point, therefore that shouldn't be a big problem. To get a two-threaded solution, you would need a background service-worker, but that's it as of now for JavaScript/HTML solutions.

For deactivation, just search the forum, that is possible.

Changing HTM is no longer an option.

The welcome page is no longer HTML/CSS/JS, but a VCL solution now, so there is no such directory any longer.

Is anybody else using a similar setup? Or has everybody but me two or more 4K monitors?

 

When I am in the office, I actually use three different scalings 🙂 However, I do not use GExperts, but yes, strange setups are part of the Windows environment.

That might have happened, thx.

I am not sure, how I got it enabled like this, but here is a way to replay the problem.

General Discussions as whole group was selected, which you cannot achieve manually - but by following this link: https://en.delphipraxis.net/?forumId=8

When in fluid view, you will notice (which I did not), that the group heading is slighty highlighted. Selecting any group, will show its contents, but removing that check mark again, will bring you back to my previous problem...

Know, clicking on the "General Discussion" group header, will unselect that group and bring all back to its original state.

I do not know, how I got into the problem in the first place, I just found a way to replay it... Anyways, all back to normal for me.

Works for me. Have you tried ticking on the boxes, and then unticking it?

Or logging out/in again?

Both, yes... 😐

Hi,

since about 4 hours, the DP does not show any topics in the fluid display mode any more...?

Usually, I have no categories selected, thus showing all of them...

Alternatively try https://github.com/synopse/mormot2 - the mormot.core.json and mormot.core.variants units contain what you would need.

Number 3, and creating a simple HTTP web server is no magic work. You may do that with Apache/PHP, IIS/ASP.NET, or even Delphi and internet network protocols. For each way, there are simple solutions.

I am not sure, whether the Hyper-USB "problem" still exists, however, when I had to made this decision, Hyper-V did not support connection of USB devices into the virtual machine, while VMWare does that without any problems. I you require to develop to access hardware directly, Hyper-V might not be possible, This was three years ago, anyway.

Is that right? If you don't keep an active update subscription, you aren't entitled to bug fixes?

That's their money printing press, yes 😐 

Would you mind writing a bit more about what you did, how can we reproduce that? Btw, you can copy&paste the messages from the message pane...

@Lars Fosdal So if I put source I </> before the source right?

Take a look above the text editor, in the toolbar and look for the </> button, press that to insert code 🙂

AFAIK even the strictest GPL allows dynamic linking without the burden of opening your code

Only, and only if your application does not depend upon that DLL to do its work. If it is an extension, giving extra features, not needed for the overall result, then you may use it that way. However, if the main purpose of your application depends on that DLL, it is to be published under GPL as well.

Any other ideas, anyone?

Let's not discuss the GOTO - first, it is not my code, but code from a library I use, second, the full method from the library certainly benefits from it. It is not always possible to optimize for everything cleanly. For full details, follow the links 😉

Yes, no change, the IOTAEditorContent object itself is not even marked as modified, it's the module, which is "knowing" that something has happened. 😐
