delphi-xe5

I have a Delphi project called VR that produces an executable named VR.exe. To my dismay I discovered Windows (I am running Window 7 64 bit Ultimate) has added links to the start menu and under games: Search & Rescue: Vietnam MED+EVAC. The icons for the links are the default delphi app icon. Did a bit of research and I found this post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/a5919fc1-db3d-4f13-b241-d059df2bf11f/renaming-a-file-into-vrexe How can I prevent windows from doing this? Update: I have another project MM, which produces mm.exe. This one created a link to the Steam

I am having troubles using multiple threads in my Delphi xe5 application for an iOS device. My goal is to perform 'some work' (SQL query), while having a TAniIndicator is spinning. I have tried using Applicaiton.ProcessMessages(), but that doesn't keep the spinner loading smoothly, if spinning at all sometimes. Here is my current code for a btn.OnClick begin if btnLogin.Text = 'Login' then begin aThread := TMyThread.Create(True); aThread.FreeOnTerminate := true; aThread.Start; while Mode1 = 0 do begin Form_Login.LoadSpinnerFrame.visible := True; Form_Login.LoadSpinner.Visible := True; Form

I try to draw on a bitmap. This works fine in Windows but creates a segmentation fault in Android (anyhow, that's what Delphi says, I just see no reaction on Android). I have a mobile project, form containing only a TToolbar, TSpeedButton, two TLabels and a TImage. There's just one eventhandler for the TSpeedButton click. When I comment out everything below the comment the code works fine in Android. When I try to follow with the debugger the code works fine to the end of the procedure. without seeing a drawing or a segmantation fault. When I let it run on the fault occurs. What am I doing

How do I access the Calendar and Events on Android using Delphi XE5. RRUZ To access the calendar you can use the Calendar class which is represented by the JCalendar class in Delphi. You can find a set of samples here And this is a Delphi sample uses Androidapi.JNI.GraphicsContentViewText, FMX.Helpers.Android, Androidapi.JNI.JavaTypes; procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var Intent: JIntent; Calendar: JCalendar; begin Calendar := TJCalendar.JavaClass.getInstance; Intent := TJIntent.Create; Intent.setType(StringToJString('vnd.android.cursor.item/event')); intent.putExtra

When a Windows program terminates it calls event handlers like OnClose, OnDestroy and the destructor Destroy. When I want to save some INI settings these are the places to be. I wrote event handlers for all these events but they are not processed when I terminate the program. Does anyone know where I should place the code to be executed when an Android program terminates? I strongly suspect that this applies to iOS as well. Update Johan's answer works for Android as well, although reality is slightly more complicated than his examples. The nice thing was that it forced me into

As Embarcadero said : " WebBrowser Does Not Accept Keyboard Input on Android On Android devices, the on-screen keyboard is not available in a TWebBrowser control. This means that a user cannot complete a web form, for example. The TWebBrowser control should be used for displaying information or documents. User interaction should be performed with FireMonkey controls. " Link This is very annoying if we have to use Clouds identification pages like Dropbox or Google Drive. Using Delphi XE5 with REST components, I'm able to open the login pages, but the keyboard is not functional on Android. So

TListview is not reloading properly when you do a search, clear the search and then reload the listview. Using XE5. Steps are: After project is running enter text into search. Clear search either clicking on "Clear" button or deleting the search text or clicking on the search "X" button. Press the "Reload" button. Nothing appears. You can step through the reload procedure and see that each item is added. However, the resulting list count is "0"!!! However, if you add the search text back the items reappear. This is crazy. And you clear the search again and all items appear. Hit the reload
