State of an uninitialised variables..
Ian Branch replied to Ian Branch's topic in Tips / Blogs / Tutorials / Videos
Done & dusted. Tks. -
Reported - RSS-475 in the new Quality Portal.

Current GExperts builds without issue in D12.1.
-
Ditto.

Does Clean_<version>.cmd install 32 & 64 bit or is it selectable? I only do 32 bit.

Cheers. It's a pity it has to be set per Project. Tks. -

A good idea. Where/how does one do that? -
Installed 12.1 over 12 without using the Web Installer issue. It didn't install the latest Help (.chm) files. 😞

Hi Team, Delphi 12. Is there a way to embed the current design time code line number into a string so that it can be shown in a message. It needs to reflectthe actual line number, even if the previous code is edited and it's actual number changes. Regards & TIA, Ian
-
Yup. Works just as well. Tks.
-
Noted. Tks.

Tks. Exactly what I needed/wanted. I made a minor change as I am using D12: /// <summary> /// Retrieves the current line number. /// </summary> /// <remarks> /// Requires the JCLDebug unit. /// </remarks> /// <returns>The line number of the current position.</returns> function GetCurrentLineNumber: Integer; begin // var ModInfo := GetLocationInfo(ReturnAddress); // Result := ModInfo.LineNumber; // end; LineByLevel - Whilst I could use it in my code by adding JCLDebug, I wanted to have it as a function in my library. If I used it from my library I got the line number in the library, not the Apps code. Regards & Tks again, Ian
-
I had a look at that previously. I may be missreading its use but it seems that JCLDebug relies on an Exception for something like this to work: function GetCurrentLineNumber: Integer; var ModInfo: TJclLocationInfo; begin ModInfo := GetLocationInfo(ExceptAddr); Result := ModInfo.LineNumber; end;

Hi Team, D10.4.2, Win 10, 4k monitor @ 150%. Anybody else seeing this effect in the Object Inspector?? If it's just me I won't sweat it, if it is being seen elsewhere I will raise a QC ticket. Ian

Delphi and "Use only memory safe languages"

Oh how true..... -
Hi Team, With the recent change in ownership of VMWare and the changes that have been wrought to it, I am leary of continuing to use it. What is a suitable alternative? I am using Win 11.
-
Ahhh. Tks.
-
Tks Brian. Yes, VMWare Workstation Pro. What dictates which alternative you use? Ian

Hi Team, Win 11, D12.1. I installed the latest Indy10 per the instructions. I noted that the uninstall cmd kept failing due to access level. I manually deinstalled the indicated Indy files. I then installed the 290.groupproj without issue. On restarting D12 I see the following message: I found IndyIPServer.dpk but Delphi doesn't like it. 😞 Do I need this .bpl? If yes, how do I now recreate it to Indy10? I am also seeing this error when I start D12: Regards & TIA, Ian
-
Ditto.
-
That is what I used.
-
IndyIPServer290 issue: Deleted it and the issue went away. 😉 It should have been deleted with the Clean up. LivePreview Issue: Answered in 2021 when I had the same issue. I don't use it so it doesn't matter.

What new features would you like to see in Delphi 13?
Ian Branch replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Case on Strings. i.e. case myStringVariable of 'A': do something; 'Test': do something; etc end; -

Ian Branch replied to PeterPanettone's topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Aside from wanting all the existing features/functions working 100% and bug free, I wouldn't mind a construct like this: var a := b := c := d := 0; or similar. -
Strange issues using multiline strings (was "Is it just me?? ")
Ian Branch posted a topic in Delphi IDE and APIs
Hi Team, Seemingly since I installed the D12 Patch: If I press enter here: on seemingly any method, or even within the code, more often than not I get this: Nothing else has changed. It is repeatable. Is it me or is there a bug un the Patch/update? It didn't happen before the Patch/Update. Regards & TIA, Ian
