Migrate from Delphi 2007 for Win32 to Delphi XE
we use Delphi 2007 for Win32 to support legacy (32Bit) OWL-based pascal applications (yes i know it was a mistake not to switch to VCL 15 years ago). could our applications still be opened and compiled with Delphi XE? The existing projects are all plain Pascal-Code, coming back from the times of Turbo Pascal for Windows and later on Borland Pascal. Are there any improvements we could profit from (i.e IDE, Debugger)? Thanks Andrej > {quote:title=Andrej Dimic wrote:}{quote} > could our applications still be opened and compiled with Delphi XE?

Indy IdHMACSHA1 different results in Delphi 2007 and Delphi 2009
Hello newsgroup A test of the IdHMACSHA1 encryption method shows different results, and I am not sure if there is an error in my code or in the Indy code shipped with Delphi 2009. The Delphi 2007 version works in an application which communicates with Amazon Web Services and so it seems to be the correct one. Any suggestions are very welcome, maybe I just need to download a newer version of Indy? program Test; {$APPTYPE CONSOLE} uses IdHMACSHA1, IdCoderMIME, IdGlobal, SysUtils; function Base64Encode(const Input: string): string; begin Result := TIdEncode...

Hi, When I installed D2007 on my laptop last week and updated over the net it it finally became version 11.0.0.2902.10471.

Delphi 2007 RTL in Delphi 7
I read somewhere that it is possible to use Delphi 2007's (or for that matter Delphi 2006's) RTL in Delphi 7 by just recompiling the source of RTL. Is this really possible? What are the benefits that we can derive using a higher version's RTL?

If it actually compiles in Delphi 7, I guess it would be possible. OTOH, if one has Delphi 2007 already, I don't s...
Moving from Delphi 7 to Delphi 2007
Is there any compelling reason to move (quite a large project) from Delphi 7 to Delphi 2007? Specifically, is there better Vista/Win7/Win8 integration provided by Delphi 2007?

different versions of Delphi
Hi, I know by experience that I can have different versions of Delphi on the same system. Right now, I have D2007, and D2009. I'm finding that I'm using less (if at all) of D2007 and more of D2009. I'm planning to install D2010 on the same system; but, this is where I'm a little confused (for lack of a better word). While I can install D2010 no problem, my question is, 'Why do I need the other versions?' I realize that D2007 is pre-Unicode and D2009 is Unicode. This makes D2010 and D2009 pretty much the same. If I were to remove all existing ve...

Code Porting
Hi people, Basically, I am moving an app from Delphi 5 to Delphi 2009 which is all great (yeah right!) and I am having a couple of issues with some thirdparty components that we have the source code for. Being that I wanted to make the task as easy as possible, I was able to download the component in Delphi 2007 format. I have now managed to port that to 2009 so it compiles only with warnings and no errors. So all is good at this moment. Now I am trying to install the component into the IDE by using the install menu option from the project manager. This is where I run into errors. ...
Converting Delphi for Win32 to Delphi .Net(Prism)
Hi, I am currently migrating a project from Delphi for Win32 to Delphi.net. Part of my code currently goes into a directory and pulls out a random file from this directory and loads the contents of the file for me. This code doesn't seem to work in Delphi.Net. It uses PString and a number of functions in SysUtils that don't seem to be present in Delphi.net's SysUtils file. If anyone can help me please, it would be greatly appreciated!

Restore Delphi 2007 dbxpress after testing Delphi 2009
Over on another thread I mentioned that I was having problems with dbxpress after testing Delphi 2009. It started that I noticed that Delphi 2007 was compiling against the newer version of dbxpress drivers (dbxmys.dll, rather than dbxmys30.dll). This was spotted after testing an application on a colleagues machine that had the older driver, but not the newer. The application was 'pure' 2007. This continued after uninstalling Delphi 2009. It was suggested that Delphi 2009 had overwritten my +dbxdrivers.ini+ file - and looking at it that looks like the problem. It was also...
Memory usage in Delphi 2007 vs. Delphi 5
Going from Delphi 5 to Delphi 2007 and finding something way unexpected. The reportedly *same code, and same data,* uses about 104 MB in Delphi 5 and about 400 MB in Delphi 2007 according to the Windows Task Manager. Now, I know that it is not the most accurate way of measuring memory usage, but it gives us an idea of the proportion of memory use in Delphi 2007. Before we go deeper, we just created 20,000 objects and added them to an object list in Delphi 5 and 2007. The result in memory use still looks like 50 MB (Delphi 5) to 178 MB (Delphi 2007). We've downloaded ...
