Yes, thats problably true ..... until the day when its NOT Why gambling russian roulette, just to save a few minutes time ? Anyway, everybody has to make his own decision about this, probably in some cases ra build needs not minutes but days, then I could understand this decision. Usually I'm starting first tests also with maybe only 80-90% of libraries rebuild, but then the goal is to re-build the rest ASAP in the next days.

Epo 1 Posted September 8, 2022 Hi, I have Installed without problems 11.2 using the migration tool after (except for GetIt package). But each time the IDE start, before the welcome screen is displayed, an error is raised: Cannot add columns or rows while expand style is fixed size. If the button OK is pushed, the IDE is launched correctly. Probably an old param from the previous install. Someone have an idea how to suppress it ? When it is closing, an another error : ??

When you launch IDE click Edit Layout on Welcome Screen. Reset Welcome Screen to default layout and then adjust it again the way you like it. Next time you start IDE it should run normally.

balabuev 102 Posted September 8, 2022 Overall nice release 👍. Cool welcome page. Cool code tooltips. Cool ASM and messages coloring. Cool colored clXxx constants (btw, what is the problem with system colors, like clBtnFace - they all shown black). IDE feels lighter and faster. IDE Options dialog opens almost immediately. Many small things were really fixed! However, some of them were introduced in recent versions 😉, like double-click issue in the Project Manager view - so, here is a parity. Some annoing things continue to annoy me, like non-working Copy/Paste shortcuts in Component Palette search field (in case of active VCL designer). Another example is Undo in code editor. Compatibility of code analisis/manipulation tools (like Code Insight, Class Completion, Refactoring, etc.) with the "new" language features, like inline variables, generics and even for-in loop - remains far from being perfect.

Mike Torrettinni 198 Posted September 8, 2022 23 hours ago, FaFaFooey said: can anyone comment yet on Code Insight/LSP for Delphi? specifically is there still that slight half-second delay when pressing ctrl+space to show the Code Insight window? I know I'm being picky but I'm still on 10.2.3 because that half-second delay is like a small speed bump to my flow. thanks! 11.2 seems to have less delay than 11.1, almost no delay. Tested on fresh installation and medium sized project. I moved from 10.2.3 to 11.1 a few months ago and there are noticeable improvements. 11.2 IDE seems quite less jittery than 11.1, smoother, less flicker. Share this post Link to post
Clément 148 Posted September 8, 2022 I'm also happy with 11.2. So far all my projects compiled directly without any trouble. The IDE is stable and the new features are cool. I will give the debugger a try and get back. Share this post Link to post

The delay, however depends of scope. In global scope, like trying to type "Color" the delay approximate half-second: procedure TMainForm.Button6Click(Sender: TObject); begin Co| end; In members scope there almost no delay (same as in 10.4): procedure TMainForm.Button6Click(Sender: TObject); begin Margins.| end; Share this post Link to post

Without the binary compatibility, third party vendors would find it next to impossible to support the varions .x releases. 1 1 Share this post Link to post

luebbe 26 Posted September 9, 2022 Not a good experience for me so far. I had installed 11.1 alongside 10.4.2 without any problems. I always install from ISO with local admin privileges. Getit packages are installed later, normally without admin privileges. I let the 11.2 installer uninstall the previous version keeping the registry keys. It removes getit packages, finishes installing the core and then crashes with the following error: Running the 11.2 installer again yields the same result. Worst of all, when I now start Delphi 10.4.2 it also crashes with almost the same exception: So the 11.2 installer managed to destroy two installations in one go. But the parnassus dlls seem to be in place: How can I recover from this situation? Probably there are some registry keys which I should delete and then reinstall again, but which registry keys? Share this post Link to post
luebbe 26 Posted September 9, 2022 I deleted the Parnassus registry keys from "SOFTWARE\Embarcadero\BDS\21.0\Experts" and now the 10.4.2 IDE starts again. Getit still thinks the parnassus plugins are installed, but uninstalled them via getit and it seems ok now. I then let the 11.2 installer delete all 11.x registry keys and it looks like it will now proceed successfully. So it looks like I could solve the problem. Share this post Link to post
Uwe Raabe 2060 Posted September 9, 2022 That is a severe problem with the Parnassus plugins: They use modules shared between Delphi versions. This has been a source of many problems even before they were handed over to Embarcadero. The integration in GetIt and the need to uninstall all GetIt stuff for an update just raises the visibility. 1 2 Share this post Link to post
