It has been in the source code for quite a while and some few people and I have tested it, but I didn't tell anybody else about it: There is a new expert in GExperts for editing the current project's unit search path. It looks like this: It offers the same functionality as the Search … Continue reading New Edit Path expert in GExperts →

I have just finished fixing all known bugs in the GExperts code formatter that were related to Generics. On top of that I fixed a few others. I am sure there are still more though, but because I rarely use Generics I haven't seen them yet.

This may be important e.g. if you are using Andreas Hausladen's Delphi Speed Up … Continue reading Change order of experts in GExperts Expert Manager →

Starting with GExperts 1.3.20 calling the standalone Experts Manager displayed the error message "GExpertsInst is not a valid reference". After that the tool actually works fine. This bug has now been fixed in the current source code. I don't think this minor inconvenience justifies a new release.

The fix was simple once I knew what the problem was. And I only found out because carrchri, … Continue reading GExperts 1.3.21 experimental twm 2022-04-09 released →

COVID-19 is still going strong, even 2 years after it was first discovered. We're on the Omicron variant now and nobody knows what new variants the near future may bring. I got my vaccination jabs in 2021-06-08 (AstraZeneca), 2021-07-17 (Biontech/Pfizer) and a booster 2021-12-09 (Moderna). As you can see, I survived all of them for … Continue reading GExperts 1.3.20 experimental twm 2022-01-30 released →

I have just finished making the stand alone GExperts Grep to really be stand alone, that is: It no longer needs the GExperts DLL but contains all the functionality in one executable. It has also been compiled with Delphi 11 Alexandria so it should be per monitor DPI aware. Another feature is the ability to … Continue reading Per monitor DPI aware stand alone GExperts Grep →
