I'm sending a XML using TXMLData and Delphi is adding a tag in the request, my code is like this: RequestData := TXMLData.Create; RequestData.LoadFromXML('<MyXML>[contents here]</MyXML>'); MyService.ExecuteRequest(RequestData); I used the OnBeforeExecute of the THTTPRIO to get the content of the Request and the content is wrapped in a tag, something like this: <SOAP-ENV:Body> <schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <MyXML> </schema> </SOAP-ENV:Body> I can't figure out why this tag is being added. How can I prevent it from being added? Also, I don't like the idea of editing the

I'm custom drawing in a DBGrid by monitoring OnDrawColumnCell to color the column. When I read the event handler's State , I successfully capture gdSelected and color the font in the selected cell. But when I monitor gdRowSelected , it's never there, and thus I can't tell when a row is selected. Why doesn't gdRowSelected ever apply? Is this a bug, or intentional functionality? Here's how I currently draw. When a row is selected, it should show the text in that row in the color red. procedure TForm1.gItemsDrawColumnCell(Sender: TObject; const Rect: TRect; DataCol: Integer; Column: TColumn;

Despite what is said in Text File Writing performances in Delphi (comments under Ken White's answer), I see the TStreamWriter not flushing with the following code: procedure TFrmAddEvents.LogEvent(AEvent: TcxSchedulerEvent); begin if not Assigned(FStreamWriter) then begin FStreamWriter := TStreamWriter.Create(TFileStream.Create(ChangeFileExt(ParamStr(0),'.log'),fmCreate or fmOpenRead)); FStreamWriter.AutoFlush := true; end; FStreamWriter.WriteLine(TcxEventDescription(AEvent)); // Even this has no effect: FStreamWriter.Flush; end; Even after executing the if Assigned(FStreamWriter) then

I'm trying to write a wrapper class around TRichEdit that can encode and decode RTF to/from plaintext. This is what I've written so far: type TRTF = class private FRichEdit : TRichEdit; procedure SetText(const AText: string); function GetText: string; class function Convert(const AInput: string; AEncode: Boolean): string; inline; static; public constructor Create; destructor Destroy; override; class function Decode(const AInput: string): string; static; class function Encode(const AInput: string): string; static; end; constructor TRTF.Create; begin FRichEdit := TRichEdit.CreateParented(HWND

I would like to know if there are any open source components available for Delphi XE-2 that can connect to postgreSQL other than using outdated techniques like ODBC. For now just Win32 support is needed, but if Win64 and OS-X support is also available that would be a bonus. I googled around a bit, but the only lib that's available (ZEOS) looks like it is no longer in active development. There does seem to be a patch for Delphi XE2 but I could not get it to compile. As of right now: No. You either route through ADO -> ODBC, dbExpress -> ODBC (for XE2*, see below), hope to make Zeos work, or pay
