Delphi 5 to Delphi XE4
Thinking about making the conversion. Of course we have numerous components such as: TurboPower AsyncPro, TurboPower Orpheus ICS2 Synactis All-In-The-Box. You guys have any advice as to the effort and time it may possibly take. It is a large application, several hundred thousand lines. And that's what happens when using third party components, a lot of extra work. I have been burned a few times. I now minimize the use to a few well known suppliers, like TMS. I have "banned" a lot of other components. Regards, Ole > > Thinking about making the conver...

Delphi 5 To Delphi 2009
I upgraded to Delphi 2009 from D5. The install says I can install Delphi and/or C++. Delphi installed OK but I see nothing of C++. What am I missing or does my upgrade not include C++? Thanks It depends on what you bought. If you bought Delphi 2009 only, that's what you get. If you bought Delphi 2009 and C++ Builder 2009 you get both. My guess is you got Delphi 2009 only. The simplest way to verify is look your invoice - it should say I would think. You could also go to members.embarcadero.com, login, then click on my registered products. There will be a textual description of...

Delphi 5 to Delphi 6 and up
Dear List, Trying to add 7Zip compression support to my delphi application. I am using the ported 7Zip sdk (see their website, they have a link). I am stumped on how to rewrite a single function: function ReverseDecode(var Models: array of SmallInt; ....): ..... where the input is mostly a fixed size array of SmallInt. This code perfectly compiles and functions in Delphi 6 and up, but in Delphi 5 I get the error: There is no overloaded version of 'ReverseDecode' that can be called with these arguments And obviously, the input (fixed) isn't the same as the param definition (dynamic sized). However, my question is just as obvious: How do I rewrite this function so it will behave correctly in Delphi 5? (If this is even possible) I hope I don't have to overload it to something like: function ReverseDecode(var Models: array[0..xxx] of SmallInt.......

Converting from Delphi 2005 to Delphi XE5

I am getting a 7 errors about FMXTeeEditor. [dcc32 Error] E1026 File not found: 'FMXTee.Editor.Brush.fmx' Not able to find a solution to this. Any help greatly appreciated.

I would make a copy of the old project before doing any of this. maybe you have links to the older tchart files....i.e its not usi...

Upgrading to Delphi 2009 from Delphi 5
I've decided it's time to upgrade to Delphi 2009 Professional from my current Delphi 5 Professional which (according to the FAQ) makes me eligible for the upgrade pricing. However, I'd just like to clarify how this process works. My concern is that my Delphi 5 is not registered on the CodeGear site and this doesn't seem to be possible as far as I can tell. When installing the trial I noticed that Delphi 2009 registers itself with your CodeGear account so does this mean that the previous version must be registered there to verify you own a Professional edition? I plan to o...

Delphi 5 to Delphi 6 conversion
Hi We are moving our product from D5 to D6. I have dealt with all the deprecated functions. However, we are getting various platform specifc warnings. These include: Symbol 'FileGetAttr' is specific to a platform Symbol 'FileSetAttr' is specific to a platform Symbol 'faReadOnly' is specific to a platform We want this conversion to be carried out correctly. We don't view the simple solution of switching off those warnings or symbols as being the correct way. What we want is the same platform independence as other functions. For example, all o...

Migrating from Delphi 7 to Delphi XE3

Migrating From Delphi 7 to Delphi 2010
We did not know which forum was the best for this question. We have been wanting to migrate from Delphi 7 to a later version for years but it appears to be a daunting task. We first looked at D2006 and that was a radical new world. We bought D2010 a couple of years ago and not done much with it because there are so many parts to our applications. We have done a few new applications in D2010 and they seem to work okay. D2010 has not been impressive, perhaps because of the strangeness compared to D7. Is is possible for us to do a phased sort of migration where we do a form at a time? ...

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?

delphi.Net Delphi 2005 Project Upgrades?
Our company aquired the software property from another last year. Most of the projects were written in Delphi 2007. We purchased Delphi XE which gave us access to previous versions, including D 2007... all is well. However, 3 projects were written Delphi 2005 for .Net. The VM we received from this company included D2005 but it was licensed from the previous developer. I've contacted Embarcadero about obtaining a copy and or a license+registration for Delphi 2005 and was told this product is no longer available. I'm under the impression Delphi for .Net was abandoned. My qu...

Change icon after migrating from Delphi 6 to Delphi 2010
I have an old project I am moving to Delphi 2010. I have attempted to change the icon for this project by setting the Application icon in the Project Options. After building the project, the exe file shows the new icon. However, when I create a shortcut to my application, the icon is the old Delphi lightning bolt icon. I have tried to get rid of the old icon by completely deleting the RES file and letting Delphi create a new RES file but that didn't change anything. I know I am missing something but I can't seem to find it. Help! RG Robert Gutierrez wrote: > I have a...

What we need to learn as we migrate from Delphi 2007 to Delphi 2012
As we prepare to move from Delphi 2007 to the Delphi of next summer/fall, and 64bit some day, we are looking for a list of improvements to Delphi (from IDE to the language) that have been done from Delphi 2007 to Delphi XE, as well as any planned ones for the next version. We understand the daunting migration to Unicode that awaits us but know that we have missed some "new and improved" items where we have to get all our developers up to speed on that may not be related to Unicode. So, we will need to plan some training before we jump in. Is there such a list out ...

Migrating from Delphi 6 to Delphi XE 3! [Edit]
All, I am a Delphi developer working in an windows form application developed using Delphi 6. Now, we are planning to upgrade the development tool. Can anyone provide me information related to major roadblocks that we can face while migrating from Delphi 6 to Delphi XE 3? Should we migrate to Delphi XE 3 or any other preferred version of Delphi based on the fact that our target users will be using Windows 7 or Windows 8? Do we have any tools or utilities to migrate the source code from Delphi 6 to higher version of Delphi? Also, any suggestions related to best practices are welcome....

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 ...

What flavour of Delphi would be better for me to migrate to, from Delphi 2009 Architect?
Hello. I do single development and need access to database tools, so I have today bought the updated Devarts Unidac for D2009E, since my previous version was from back in 2010. Then I thought, why not take the full step, when I'm in the move anyway. Have read a lot in ng's of slower compiler and about drowning in new stuff that does Delphi harder to get productive, with my knowledge level. I'm now, for me, doing the biggest project ever, so perhaps I should take the step now, but fear the time consuming consequences. Perhaps the time needed for the project itself will h...
