Looks like there is bug in 10.3 Linux compiler: maximum enum size is limited to 8 bytes. F.e. type TMyEnum = (a1, a2, ..a100); TMyEnums = set of TMyEnum; var X: TMyEnums; sizeof(X) returns 8 on Linux platform.

How mininum enume size may affect this case? This test enum is larger than maximum setting for "Minimum enum size" parameter.

Another test: if e191 in LargeEnumSet then Writeln('YES'); No YES in output.

Output is the same, but in debugger Evaluate/Modify window Sizeof(LargeEnumSet) shows 8. Sizeof(LargeEnumSet) is calculated at compile time, in asm code there is explicit $19

One more bridge between desktop and web: HTML Office Library. The first Delphi library for reading all office formats (+ PDF) and convert them to plain HTML on the fly. Converted document contains only plain HTML/CSS/SVG and can be displayed using HTML Component Library or browser. Library provides a uniform access to an entire document and its parts, document resources (fonts, images, etc) and properties (title, Table of Contents, etc). The library doesn't depend on any external components (DLLs, OLE, ActiveX, etc) and is cross-platform. Fully written in Delphi and comes with full source code. Following document formats are supported: Rich Text Format (RTF) MS Word 6-2007 binary format (DOC) MS Word XML document (DOCX) MS Power Point binary format (PPT) MS Power Point XML format (PPTX) MS Excel binary format (XLS) MS Excel XML format (XLSX) Adobe PDF format (PDF) Supercalc format (SXC) EPUB (electronic books). Besides the document conversion classes it also contains the following: EMF/WMF to SVG conversion TTF to WOFF conversion TTF normalization TTF to SVG conversion CFF to TTF conversion Adobe PostScript to TTF conversion. Supported Delphi versions are Delphi XE2 - Delphi 10.4.1. Supported platforms: Windows 32/64 VCL and FMX, MacOS, Linux. There are two compiled demos available https://delphihtmlcomponents.com/FileBrowser.zip 1. Simple document viewer: allows to view any document on hard drive using file tree on left side and HtPanel on right. To view final HTML press View in browser button. No installation required. 2. Document Indexer: create full text search index for documents located in selected folders and find any document from application or Web. No installation required. How to use: Run application (OfficeIndex.exe). Click Add folder and select folder containing office documents. Click Start indexing, wait until it completed. Search for documents using one of the following: a) Go to Search tab and enter search query (any words). b) Click Web interface and enter search query. c) Point mobile phone camera (mobile should be connected to the same router) to QR code and open mobile interface. Full cource code of both applications are included in library.

Thank you. I'll think about this.

Yes. Competitors price (not Delphi because there is no similar library for Delphi) is $15K-$50K Developing somethign similar yourself will cost at least $100K. So $2k (with discount) for site license is quite low price.

HTML + images inside ZIP. Similarly to DOCX.

This quote if for HtmlViewer project. HTML Component Library supports almost all HTML tags and CSS properties on all platforms (including mobiles) for all Delphi versions from Delphi 5. Works on all Windows versions starting from XP, has no external dependencies, is more safe (JS is not executed) and gives you full control on loading external files (images, stylesheets, etc). Also it can be used for rendering HTML in any other control (trees, grids, etc) and another libraries (FastReport, ReportBuilder, etc) using GDI, GDI+, DirectX. plaint text or custom renderer.

Major improvements: New context sensitive toolbar at editor bottom (eoContextToolbar option) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdWafp0xyPA Image selection toolbar. 40% faster style and layout calculation Support for inlined truetype fonts (@font-face... data:font/truetype;base64) Support for CSS tab-stop decimal and tab-interval CSS word-spacing and letter-spacing properties Magnifier when selecting text on Android and iOS Local links navigation (Click in HtPanel, Ctrl+Click in Editor) Subscript and superscript actions for selection and context toolbars. Linux: support for copy/paste formatted HTML and paste RTF Advanced charts (gradients and more: see Charts 2 section in Reports demo). Full list: https://delphihtmlcomponents.com/new43.html What is HTML Library: the only true native HTML/CSS/SVG engine for Delphi, all Delphi versions, all platforms, VCL and FMX. Rendering using GDI, GDI+, Direct2d, FMX canvas, text canvas and native iOS, OSX and Android canvases. CSS animations and transitions, animated GIF support for all platforms. RTL languages. WYSIWYG HTML editor, import from RTF and DOCX, export to PDF. Interactive HTML/SVG Reports with charts. FastReport, ReportBuilder, VirtualTreeView, SynPDF, Addict and DevExpress spellchecker integration. Pascal scripting engine. SQL library for parsing, analyzing and transforming SQL queries and working with database schema. Universal Email library for sending and receiving emails.

HTML Report Library has PDF export on all platforms including Android and can get data from SQL table or any other source (XML, JSON, etc).

New context sensitive HTML Editor UI (inspired by next MS Office preview). Just one Delphi form and one editor component, no code, no toolbars, no actions, no image lists (all SVG).

@Rollo62 I suppose end of this month.

@Rollo62 Thank you, This will be available in next 4.3 version. Current version is 4.2 and it already supports 10.4. You can download latest build of 4.2 using the same URL, it is updated periodically.

Scripting engine included in HTML Component Library supports all FMX platforms including mobiles. It also have debugger, automatic class registration by RTTI and classes for code completion.

This is an FMX issue, not related to Java. On mobile platforms FMX use own text rendering - glyphs are rasterized to (cached) bitmaps and these bitmaps are drawn to openGL textures. This code is not perfect and sometimes (depending on screen resolution and scaling) produce lines on bitmap edges.

Can you please share these problem SVGs?

Little bit offtopic, but from my experience 90% of performance issues in Delphi came from implicit try except blocks. When procedure contains local variable of managed type, or implicit variable (f.e. string1+string2, copy(), etc) try except block with finalization calls is added to whole procedure even if variable is used only in small block. Moving this block (in case it is rarely executed) to subprocedure helps a lot.

Report is quite simple. First part is call stack, Usually top items are from RTL and gives you little info, so skip items from top until you'll find your own unit, this will be class/method where leaked block was created, Second section is (possible) class that uses this block.

Looks like TStringList is created in TBetFairAPIHorseHelperBL.ResetEventID and never destroyed.

HTML Library 4.2 released. Mostly an maintanence release with RAD studio 10.4 support and bugfixes. Customers will receive download link in a two days.
