Hi Team, D10.4.2. I have just removed all the apparent 'Indy' related files per the 'Indy 10 Installation Instructions', and installed the current Indy 10 from GitHub. That all went well. I may have deleted something that looked like an Indy file but either wasn't, or was but is needed by LivePreview. LivePreview.bpl is present in the indicated directory. When I go to start D10.4.2 now I get the attached error message. I click Yes so I can keep it in my mind. I have no idea what it is for. Can anybody make an educated guess as to what LivePreview might now be missing? All the files are either in my Recycle bin or in a .rar file, depending. Regards & TIA, Ian

Hi Team, D11.3, latest GE. Is it just me or does the GE Source Formatter, Ctl-Alt-F, not work on Units without Forms?? Regards, Ian

Many thanks to Thomas for his persistance in tracking this down and reolving it. Appreciated. Ian

Hi Team, I suspect I have been doing something wrong. And not for the first time. ;-) If I have the following construct.. try ..... .... if x then begin ..... Exit; end else begin .... ... end; Finally FreeAndNil(something); end; Will the Exit bypass the FreeAndNil?? I suspect it does and I may have been causing myself some grief. Regards & TIA, Ian

Caught me as I was going out the Office door. 😉 If there is/was a space, I didn't put it there. 🙂 Success!!! GE Build 4102 for D12 builds, installs & runs. 🙂 🙂 Thank you. I will sleep peacefully tonight. 😉 Ian

I still get this. ..\..\images\GXIcons.rc : error : Error Could not open input file D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\My.RC [D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\GExpertsRS120.dproj] Done Building Project "D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\GExpertsRS120.dproj" (rebuild target(s)) -- FAILED.

Just to be sure, I just did another full download of GE. Rev 4097. Same result on build attempt. FWIW I don't have any MY.RC on my PC. 🙂

Hi Achim, From the command line. Ian

I just did a clean download of 4097. D11 OK. Same failed result for D12. ..\..\images\GXIcons.rc : error : Error Could not open input file D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\My.RC [D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\GExpertsRS120.dproj] Done Building Project "D:\GExperts\Projects\DelphiXx120\GExpertsRS120.dproj" (rebuild target(s)) -- FAILED.

It hasn't worked for me in a Unit for a long time. It was a minor inconvenience. I am not referring to a Console Unit here, just a Function Library type Unit. The Menu option doesn't work there either. If I switch to a unit with a Form in the same App, both work fine.

D11.3, MMX 15.1.8.2580. In the previous MMX, Ctl-Alt-U would do the Format Uses clause OK. In the latest, on pressing Ctl-Alt-U it does something but not the Uses Format. The Sorting|Format Uses Clause works fine. Anybody else seeing this issue?? Ian

Hmmm. Double wammy. Both SmartInspect & cnPack were intercepting it. 😞 cnPack has the ability to disable its use. 🙂 SmartInspect does not. 😞 I have disabled SmartInspect as I use it infrequently in Delphi. All good now. Apologies for the inconvenience. Ian

Hi Uwe, The Key binding is correct. According to GExperts it is the only user of Ctl-Alt-U. Ian

It wasn't there in 4095. GE built OK in D12 in rev 4095.

I can vouch for this. Works fine.

Nor I.

Hi Team, I have D11 & now D12 installed on my Dev PC. All was going well until I installed Parnassus Bookmarks into D12. 😞 Seems the ParnassusCoreEditor.dll are not compatible. Broke my D11 Bookmarks. I now get an error when I start D11 and when I finish/exit D11. If I disable Parnassus Bookmarks off in D11, No more start/exit error dialogs. I would have thought this would have been fixed along the same lines as the ParnassusBookmarks_XXXX dlls. Sigh.. Ian

Ah Ha! Excellent tks Uwe. I now have a _XAlexandria and a _Yukon. Problem solved but it shouldn't have been necessary. Regards, Ian

Yes, the ParnassusBookmarks has an ending of Yukon. ParnassusBookmark_Yukon.dll. As does the Alexandria version ParnassusBookmark_Alexandria.dll. But the ParnassusCoreEditor.dll does not, as the Parnassus' .dlls are all in the same common folder, the D12 dll isn't liked by D11.

Is this possible/practical? Regards & TIA, Ian

Is this possible? Regards & TIA, Ian

Interesting. I just repeated the download/build process, I had done it twice before with the result as reported above, this time all is good. Download and build, no issues. The errors I were getting when exiting Delphi have also seem to have disappeared. Fingers crossed. 😉

Unless I'm missing something, isn't the filename going to be the one open/in view att? Thus IMO the filename is redundant. Just have the line # in the left column.
