Because the VCL depends on the RTL. If you use the Runtime Package for the VCL then you need the Runtime Package of the RTL as well.

You can't put a breakpoint on a function declaration. Put the breakpoint inside of your main() function instead, at the spot where square() is actually being called: int main() { // ... square(nums, 10); // <-- breakpoint here!!! //... } Now you should be able to step into square() at runtime. Or, simply put the breakpoint inside of square() itself: void square(int *n, int num) { while(num) // <-- breakpoint here!!! { *n = *n * *n; num--; n++; } }
-
Does your project use multiple build configurations (debug/release, 32bit/64bit, etc)? Do you have the runtime packages applied to every configuration?
-
Are you saying you get that when you put a breakpoint on the call to square() and then step into it? It should not be stepping into std code, let alone ntdll code. Are you sure you are not maybe stepping into the std::cout calls instead?
-
That makes no sense. You should show your paper logic. Entry into function: num=10 while (10) square 1 num=9 while (9) square 2 num=8 while (8) square 3 num=7 while (7) square 4 num=6 while (6) square 5 num=5 while (5) square 6 num=4 while (4) square 7 num=3 while (3) square 8 num=2 while (2) square 9 num=1 while (1) square 10 num=0 while (0) break 10 iterations total, and num is 0 after the last iteration. It can't be 1.

@357mag I don't understand what you are describing. Of course num reaches 0 or else the function would never exit. Proof: https://onlinegdb.com/bxMEvMyoc

record functions with parameters?
Remy Lebeau replied to Nigel Thomas's topic in Algorithms, Data Structures and Class Design
This has nothing to do with records. Properties simply don't allow you to directly pass in parameters to the getter/setter methods of the read/write specifiers. However, there is an alternative - put the strings into an array, and then use an index specifier on the property, which will get passed to the getter method when it is called, eg: type TMyRec = record private function ConvertStrToInt(IndexOfStrToConvert: Integer): Integer; public const N = ...; public StrArr: array[0..N-1] of string; property IntA: Integer index 0 read ConvertStrToInt; //... property IntN: Integer index N-1 read ConvertStrToInt; end; function TMyRec.ConvertStrToInt(IndexOfStrToConvert: Integer): Integer; begin Result := StrToInt(StrArr[IndexOfStrToConvert]); end; -
Current Generation methods in Apps under Windows 7?
Remy Lebeau replied to Ian Branch's topic in General Help
Embarcadero does not officially support running the latest IDE on less than Windows 10. It may or may not work on older versions. -
Is it possible to compile a dynamic linked library in one Delphi version and use it in older versions?
Remy Lebeau replied to araujoarthur's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
Yes, for the most part, a plain DLL can do that. Just be careful about accessing anything across the DLL boundary that is version-specific. Keep the interface between DLL and EXE simple - stick to functions and simple POD types or OS-managed types only. No classes, no Delphi-managed types, etc. -
Stay away from 'using namespace std;' !!! https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1452721/whats-the-problem-with-using-namespace-std Your count identifier is likely conflicting with std::count(). The compiler doesn't know which one you want. Consider using this instead: //using namespace std; using std::cout; using std::endl; using std::system; Or, put your count global variable in its own namespace. (Also, you are missing #include <cstdlib> for std::system())
-
You can't, without patching the EXE or recompiling the RTL. Nor should you be doing so. You should be complaining to CrowdStrike instead. And code-signing your EXE.

The RTL looks for Wine as part of its check to know whether it can use the Win32 API to access TLS (thread local storage) data, instead of using direct access to the GS register.

exception message : Error connecting with SSL. EOF was observed that violates the protocol.
Remy Lebeau replied to david_navigator's topic in Indy
Those settings only affect WinInet/WinHTTP (which Indy doesn't use), they have no effect on OpenSSL. -
Is it possible to cast an anonymous procedure to a procedure of object ?
Remy Lebeau replied to dormky's topic in RTL and Delphi Object Pascal
This is documented behavior: https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/Anonymous_Methods_in_Delphi -
It is actually legal code and does compile: https://onlinegdb.com/AYf40CsUy This kind of reverse syntax is not commonly used, but it does have its uses, and the C++ standards allows it. For an array, arr[2] is the same as *(arr+2), and thus 2[arr] is the same as *(2+arr).

Retrieve value of INSERT ... RETURNING ...?

Retrieve value of INSERT ... RETURNING ...?
Remy Lebeau replied to Paul Dardeau's topic in Databases
ExecSQL() is not supposed to be used for SQL statements that return data. You normally have to use Open() instead, or set Active=true. That being said, RETURNING values can be accessed using an output parameter, which ExecSQL() should be able to fill. Depending on the driver you are using, the syntax may differ slightly, eg: ... ExecuteQuery(SqlQuery, false); DatabaseId := SqlQuery.ParamByName('RET_database_id').AsInteger; Or: ... with TParam(SqlQuery.Params.Add) do begin Name := 'database_id'; DataType := ftInteger; ParamType := ptOutput; end; ExecuteQuery(SqlQuery, false); DatabaseId := SqlQuery.ParamByName('database_id').AsInteger; -
In C++, that example would look like this: #include <iostream> int main() { int value = 42; int *p_int = &value; std::cout << "p_int points to " << *p_int << std::endl; // 42 int arr[] = {100, 101, 102}; p_int = &arr[1]; std::cout << "p_int points to " << *p_int << std::endl; // 101 ++p_int; std::cout << "p_int points to " << *p_int << std::endl; // 102 ++p_int; std::cout << "p_int points to " << *p_int << std::endl; // (OUT OF BOUNDS - UNDEFINED BEHAVIOR!) }

Such a version has NOT been released yet. Still a work in progress. The next Indy version that is pending release (10.7) will be splitting off all OpenSSL support into a new package, IndyTLSOpenSSL, as an add-on to the main Indy packages. It has its own repo: https://github.com/IndySockets/IndyTLS-OpenSSL v1.0 will focus on backwards compatibility as users update their existing projects to include this new package without changing the rest of their code. Then v2.0 will be for adding OpenSSL 3.x. In the meantime, there are a few 3rd party projects already available now that bring OpenSSL 3.x to the current Indy. You cannot have multiple versions installed together. The GitHub version is not compatible as-is with the default bundled version. You will have to use one or the other. I can't answer that. Each 3rd party project that has been released so far has its own way of doing things. Use what is appropriate for whatever project you decide to use. What will end up in the new IndyTLSOpenSSL package is not finalized yet.

Is it really worth it?

You can't normally have multiple versions of the DLLs with the same file names loaded at the same time. But, in this case, you can't just rename the DLLs either, because IIRC one of them depends on the other using the original filename. You could try wrapping the old unit code inside of an Activation Context so it can use the older DLLs while the rest of your app uses the newer DLLs. But, this is a pretty advanced technique. Otherwise, if you can't update the older unit to use the newer DLLs, then you will probably be best off splitting the two codes into separate EXEs with different DLL dependancies.

properties Is it possible to copy all properties from one TMemo to a dynamically created TMemo?
Remy Lebeau replied to JohnLM's topic in VCL
That code can be simplified: procedure TForm1.PageControl1Change(Sender: TObject); var sheet : TTabSheet; frame : TFrame2; begin sheet := PageControl1.ActivePage; frame := sheet.Components[0] as TFrame2; StrLines.Assign(frame.Memo.Lines); ListBox1.Items.Assign(frame.Memo.Lines); end;- 15 replies

Remy Lebeau replied to JohnLM's topic in VCL
On a side note - the TFrame should have an Owner assigned, not just a Parent, eg: memo := tframe2.Create(TabSheet);- 15 replies

The most direct/efficient way is to put the Memo object pointers into an array or list, and then use the integer as an index into that container.

For the benefit of others who will read this discussion in the future... You are simply missing the closing outer quote: cout << "Looking for the index position of the word \"own\""; ^ You might also consider using your 'word' variable: cout << "Looking for the index position of the word \"" << word << "\""; Also note that C++14 and later has the std::quoted stream manipulator: #include <iomanip> ... cout << "Looking for the index position of the word " << std::quoted(word);
