I have downloaded it OK.

If its an issue for you, I suggest  RunTime ToolKit

There isn't one per se.  It tells you that it has tried to open a second instance of GExperts.

I used GExperts for years, but it doesn't work with Delphi 12,   That was probably what I was using.

GExperts works fine in D12...

Hi pmvgee,

Your assumption was correct.

This option has fascinated me a little but I can't help wondering if it is technology for the sake of technology...

I can't see 'out' parameters dissappearing in any forseeable future so what advantage do tuples bring to the table/keyboard?

As far as I can see, In order to implement them you need another code set to support them.  I found 'generics.tuples.pas' from Malcolm Groves, on the face of it, it seems a whole lot of code for little gain.

Hi pmcgee,

Interesting, never come across them nor can I say I have seen them.

What does FAIL represent?

Ian

If they must code like that, :-(, make it one space after the comment.

Resolved.  Deleted both Parnassus BookMarks & CoreEditor entries in the registry just to be safe, then used AutoGetit to reinstall it/them.

All good now.

None found in the entire registry.  😞

Hi Team,

I had both D11 & D12 installed while I validated all my Apps into D12.  No problems there.

I had Parnassus Bookmarks installed in both.

Today I deinstalled D11 and D12 won't start properly because it can't fine ParnassusCoreEditor.dll.  😞

What do I need to delete and where to get D12 to start fully so I can reinstall Bookmarks??

Regards & TIA,

Ian

I did some investigation and the background compilation was the culprit.

I think I eventually discovered the same thing.  Too long ago now... 😉

Tks uligerhart.  That's what I did initially to get it going.

I will adapt to the reordered parameters.

all parameters following the first declared default value must also have default values.

Ahhhhhhh.  That was what I was missing.  I was not aware of that.

Thank you FPiette.

I will just have to remember the order of parameters when I call the function.  😉

Hi Team,

D12.

I have the following function:

function GetWeekDates(const GivenDate: TDateTime; const SOWDay: string; out startDate, endDate: TDateTime): Boolean;

I want to modify it so that SOWDay has a default value of 'SU' if SOWDay isn't supplied.

As SOWDay must be By-Value or a Constant, I can't do this:

function GetWeekDates(const GivenDate: TDateTime; var SOWDay: string = 'SU'; out startDate, endDate: TDateTime): Boolean;

is what I am after possible?

Delete Reference:  I did it with an overloaded function.

Regards & TIA,

Ian

Yes, they are available.

Hi David,

Thank you for your suggestions.

Great minds think alike.    I have just finished going through all the Apps implementing option 3.

Ian

Just try several different themes until the control gives the right balance of colors in your application.

There a several that work fine with the component but I prefer Wedgwood Light for the overall presentation.  Just this one annoyance.

Ian

Hi Team,

Win 11, D12, latest Raize components via GetIt.

I use TrzPageControl for my tabbed interface.

With all of the themes/styles I have used so far there hasn't been an issue except for one theme/style.

If I try to use the Wedgewood Light style the currently active tab caption is pretty much unreadable. 😞  See examples.

Is this a theme/style issue or a TrzPageControl issue?

In either case, is there a fix?  I really would like to use the Wedgewood Light theme/style.

Regards & TIA,

Ian

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

Appreciated.

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.

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.

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.
