I've got some code that worked fine under Delphi 2007 but breaks under D2010. It involves passing in a string, converting it to a PWideChar (specifically, a WideString pointer, not a UnicodeString pointer), doing some processing, and then calling SysFreeString on it. It works fine until a blank string is passed in, then SysFreeString b...

If you put a breakpoint in System._StartExe and examine the InitTable that gets passed in, you'll notice that InitTable.UnitCount is greater than InitTable.TypeInfo.UnitCount. Unfortunately, neither of these records are documented very well. Does anyone know what these two numbers represent and why they're different? I assume InitTabl...

Is there any decent function build in or does somebody has a ...
In some code I am fixing up, which makes heavy use of generics and interfaced types, I am getting error E2134, Type '<void>' has no type info. I believe it is because I am in the middle of a refactor where some deeply nested set of units that all use generics are out of sync, but the error is not happening in a place where I can mak...

But with RttiContext.FindType('MyUnit.TMyClass') I always get nil (of course MyUnit is in uses clause). Why, what is wrong? Example: unit MyUnit; interface uses Classes; type TMyClass = class(TStringList) end; implementation...
