This book will make you a faster Delphi developer, it doesn't matter if you are just starting out, or have been using Delphi since version 1, you will find all sorts of tips, tricks and hacks to boost your productivity.
Make your Delphi code better by reading this book! You will find numerous tips, tricks, techniques and tools to enhance and improve code. How does your code stack up? Are you writing code that will be usable for years, or are you heading towards a dystopian maintenance apocalypse?
Delphi will statically link the SQLite DLL to your application, but what if you need to use an updated driver to take advantage of new features in SQLite. Well, you can dynamically link an updated DLL. Watch here.
More about this (and instructions) in my StackOverflow question.
Creating your own functions in SQLite is another Delphi superpower. Find out how to do it in this video.
I wanted to convert some black bitmaps to white while preserving the transparency. This turned out to be much more challenging than I suspected. Why? Find out by watching.
I hadn't thought about this before, but in Delphi, you can't break on an exit statement, but it's something you can quickly fix - and make your code easier to debug. Find out by watching this video.
This video got a bit out of hand, but what I wanted to demonstrate was using an interface to hide an implementation and prevent unwanted dependencies from sneaking into our code. The example uses logging, and we continue using QuickLogger from our previous video (235).
In this video, we look at using some of the predefined anonymous method types in Delphi - in particular, TProc<string> and why it might be a good idea to create some of your own.
In this video, I did some experiments to see how I could improve the rendering performance of controls in the VCL when changing the layout of a form.
This guide unlocks the power of efficient logging in Delphi applications. Discover how to swiftly integrate QuickLogger using GetIt for seamless file and Syslog logging. We don’t stop there; we’ll also show you how to craft your own Syslog server, ensuring a fully Delphi-based solution. Perfect for developers looking to enhance their application’s logging capabilities! Watch on YouTube.
Building database applications is easy in Delphi. Here, in this video we will build an application to talk to an SQLite database, which we will create with the same application.
Building a DataSnap server in Delphi is easy—it requires just a few clicks. Creating the client is just as simple. Let's build an application that very inefficiently reverses a string, watch it here. See you at the ADUG Symposium 2024.
