Vortrag auf den Forentagen 2023
Am 13. und 14. Oktober 2023 finden in Kassel zum ersten Mal nach der Corona-Pandemie die Forentage der deutschen Delphi-Foren statt. Ich wollte mich schon immer mal öffentlich blamieren und habe mich deshalb freiwillig gemeldet, um dort einen Vortrag zum Thema "Ansteuerung von Sensoren auf Messfahrzeugen aus Delphi" zu halten (11:45-12:45). Ich bin gerade dabei, … Continue reading Vortrag auf den Forentagen 2023
All my open source projects have been moved back to SourceForge
Over the last few weeks I have moved all those of my projects that I had moved to OSDN back to SourceForge. (No, I won't move them to Github. I prefer Subversion over git and I can't see any advantages for me (or these projects) of moving to Github. Stop asking please!)
Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg is looking for a Delphi developer
I am a big fan of the Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg - although I have been there only once and that was years ago, but I still follow them on YouTube and I regularly watch Gerrits Tagebuch (Hey Gerrit, your last post was in April, that's 5 months ago. Just saying ... 😉 Btw. I … Continue reading Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg is looking for a Delphi developer
OSDN seems to be up again
After several weeks (or was it even months) of being dead, OSDN just "magically" was resurrected. At least the web page now works again, albeit rather slowly, (but it never was fast to start with). Somebody must have woken up there. I'll keep moving my projects back to SourceForge anyway (nearly finshed that already). I … Continue reading OSDN seems to be up again
OSDN is dead
A in 2018 the reliabiltiy of SourceForge seemed to be way down and getting worse. Back then, I moved several of my open source projects to OSDN which used an older version of the SourceForge software and was hosted in Japan. They have served me quite well over the years, but unfortunately they have been … Continue reading OSDN is dead
Pre-sets for the GExperts stand alone Grep tool
When running stand alone, GExperts Grep Results can not be opened in the IDE. Instead an external text editor is used. This editor and the required parameters to open the file and set the cursor at the desired line and column must be configured in the File → Options menu. I have now added buttons with the … Continue reading Pre-sets for the GExperts stand alone Grep tool
while TStream_TryRead() do
It has always irked me that in C you can write: [c] while (0<(BytesRead=Read(...))) { // .. } [/c] But in Delphi you have to use the much less readable [delphi] BytesRead := Stream.Read(Buffer, BufSize); while BytesRead > 0 do begin // .. BytesRead := Stream.Read(Buffer, BufSize); end; [/delphi] Today I had enough and wrote … Continue reading while TStream_TryRead() do
Testing zlib compression in Delphi
Delphi has for a while contained two classes that simplify stream compression: TZCompressionStream TZDecompressionStream I had not used them before and when I tried to use them now to compress and decompress some binary data that is stored as part of a large file, I got some inexplicable results. So I wrote this little test … Continue reading Testing zlib compression in Delphi
