It uses the DLL from the current source code, compiled with Delphi 12.3 and contains all the bugs I haven't yet found, so use it at your own risk. Download link I'm not promising anything, but the Easter weekend might give me some time to … Continue reading GExperts Test installer for Delphi 12

GExperts: AI Rewrite and COBOL Port Announced for Immediate Development
(Just in case you didn't notice the publication date: This was an April Fools joke. I have had some experience with COBOL and I would never ever use it unless somebody pays me thousands of Euros per hour.) The venerable Delphi IDE extension GExperts is about to undergo a revolutionary transformation, with plans announced to … Continue reading GExperts: AI Rewrite and COBOL Port Announced for Immediate Development
GExperts now fixes yet another annoyance in the Delphi IDE: Desktops
With my particular monitor setup, the Desktop feature of the Delphi 11 and 12 IDE does not work correctly. The Startup Desktop is not restored as I saved it, on my high def monitor on the left hand side, but instead covers both monitors with huge window. I reported this problem to Embarcadero ages ago. … Continue reading GExperts now fixes yet another annoyance in the Delphi IDE: Desktops
Added IDE Toolbar Expert to GExperts
Some Delphi IDE versions have an annoying bug with the toolbars that makes them unusable if you customize them. If you have seen this problem, you know it, if not, congratulations! Unfortunately I am one of the people who experience this problem and it annoyed me so much, that I added a workaround to GExperts. … Continue reading Added IDE Toolbar Expert to GExperts
Uses Clause Manager topic added to the GExperts help
They say that documentation is the worst part of programming and I mostly agree with that. Nevertheless I have taken the time to add a page about the Uses Clause Manager expert to the GExperts help because that topic was completely missing. I hope I covered all the topics. There is no help button on … Continue reading Uses Clause Manager topic added to the GExperts help
Updated Webhelp for GExperts available
Jim McKeeth has updated the GExperts documentation a bit. It's far from finished but that's better than the totally outdated one on gexperts.org. I have now exported it as webhelp and checked it in to subversion. You can read it at my newly created domain help.gexperts.de. (The domain was temporary only. I got it cheaply … Continue reading Updated Webhelp for GExperts available

The new GExperts version still supports all Delphi versions back to Delphi 6 (with the notable exception of Delphi 8) and even the Delphi 12 version is no longer in Beta state. I hope we have fixed some more bugs and haven't added too many more. As always: Report and any bugs you find (or … Continue reading GExperts 1.3.25 2024-08-24 released

CodeInsightExpert for GExperts
Michael Höfmann has written an additional CodeInsightExpert (in German) that can be added to GExperts and supports the writing of CodeInsight compatible comments in Delphi 12 (Athens). The source code is in his repository on GitHub. Note that this is not an official expert in GExperts, so you won't get any support from me. I … Continue reading CodeInsightExpert for GExperts
GExperts FAQ: Why does the Grep Results window not remember size and position?
The Grep Results window (and several other windows) can be docked to the IDE. To allow that GExperts does not save their positions and size but lets the IDE do that, which means these settings are part of an IDE desktop. While this can be convenient in the case of a docked window, it can … Continue reading GExperts FAQ: Why does the Grep Results window not remember size and position?
