As a test I decided to create a simple "Hello world" app in Delphi using Delphi 4, 5, 6, 7, 2005, 2010 and XE3. The app is nothing more than a TForm, a TButton with an OnClick event that calls ShowMessage('Hello world'). Below are the results of each final EXE with debugging turned off: Can someone explain why the XE3 version is 26 times larger than the average of the previous versions of Delphi? Here are my project settings for XE3: You may have done a only a compile after changing to 'Release' configuration. Try to do a rebuild (not recompile). This will truly activate the Release

If I have a class like this: TServerSettings = class(TSettings) strict private FHTTPPort : Integer; published property HTTPPort : Integer read FHTTPPort write FHTTPPort default 80; end; How can I get the default attribute of the HTTPPort property using RTTI? Like this: {$APPTYPE CONSOLE} uses System.TypInfo; type TMyClass = class strict private FMyValue: Integer; published property MyValue: Integer read FMyValue default 42; end; var obj: TMyClass; PropInfo: PPropInfo; begin obj := TMyClass.Create; PropInfo := GetPropInfo(obj, 'MyValue'); Writeln(PropInfo.Default); end. Note that the class as

I searched over internet for how to inserting picture in RichEdit . I only found inserting TImage into Richedit, or other 3rd part components to do it for me. I don't want to use other components or insert TImage into RichEdit. Is there any other way to do this? I want to insert it in line so I can use paragraph actions like justify on it (inserting TImage does not provide this as i found in examples and tested, am i wrong?). I want to write something like what happened in TJVRichEdit (in JVCL package) re-sizing picture in Richedit can be ignored. If you can wrap your image inside of an

Windows Explorer has an arrow indicating which column a list view (in report view style) is sorted by and in which direction (ASC vs. DESC). Is it possible to display such a sort indication arrow on a TListView in Delphi? David Heffernan Here's some simple code to mark a header column as sorted ascending: uses Winapi.CommCtrl; var Header: HWND; Item: THDItem; begin Header := ListView_GetHeader(ListView1.Handle); ZeroMemory(@Item, SizeOf(Item)); Item.Mask := HDI_FORMAT; Header_GetItem(Header, 0, Item); Item.fmt := Item.fmt and not (HDF_SORTUP or HDF_SORTDOWN);//remove both flags Item.fmt :=

I want to display data from table (column :- ID) at FastReport in Grid format as shown below. Suppose there are 22 records in table then it would display same in 3 * 3 grid at FastReport in following manner. I am using subreport at main page inside MasterData1 band. At subreport MasterData band is as follows MasterData1 band TfrxReportPage1 - Columns 2 Subreport - MasterData2 properties Columns 3 , RowCount 9 But when I previewed fast report it is just repeating same data in each grid on page as follows I am using frxDBDataSet1 to display data (Number Of Records 9). There are in total 28

According to this question it is possible to hide fmx taskbar icon by changing window style to WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW . In XE2 and XE3 this code works: uses FMX.Platform.Win, Winapi.Windows; procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var h:THandle; begin h := FmxHandleToHWND(Handle); ShowWindow(h, SW_HIDE); SetWindowLong(h, GWL_EXSTYLE, GetWindowLong(h, GWL_EXSTYLE) or WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW); ShowWindow(h, SW_SHOW); end; In XE4 this solution does not work (application button should become hidden but nothing happens). any body have any idea? Thanks. Steve Swallow Just tried this in XE7 and of course
