I've used frames in Delphi for years, and they are one of the most powerful features of the VCL, but standard use of them seems to have some risk such as: It's easy to accidentally move or edit the frame sub-components on a frame's host form without realising that you are 'tweaking' with the frame - I know this does not affect the o...
I use Firefox as my web browser, mostly for access to add-ins such as Flashblock and No-script. I noticed yesterday that the RAD Studio internal browser used for the Welcome Page etc has scripting and Active X etc enabled. Is there a way to disable scripting, or better still, block all access to non-local sources in the built-in browser?...
I've got a component I created that embeds a hardware-accelerated renderer in a TWinControl so you can place it on a form. It works pretty well in most cases, but if I try to resize the control, everything goes blank until the message loop runs and calls the WndProc for the renderer, which is hosted in an external DLL.

The reason why I am trying to solve this without using Copy is the fact that I have only a...
If I have an OpenGL texture, and I need to perform HSL modifications on it before rendering the texture, from what I've heard I need a shader. Problem is, I know nothing about shaders. Does anyone know where I would need to look? I want to write a function where I can pass in a texture and three values, a hue shift in degrees, and sat...
I'm a member in a team that develop a Delphi application. The memory requirements are huge. 500 MB is normal but in some cases it got out of memory exception. The memory allocated in that cases is typically between 1000 - 1700 MB. We of course want 64-bits compiler but that won't happen now (and if it happens we also must convert to uni...
Okay, this might be confusing. What I'm trying to do is use an enumerator to only return certain items in a generic list based on class type.

how can i see how much of the stack space is currently used in my delphi app? i had a very strange error that sounds like stack trouble. i'd like to add it to my app's log to get some idea how much stack space is in use/remaining. using the debugger is probably not so great because the routine can be called many times. thank you! ...

Hi. After update 4 and 5 I am interested to re-evaluate Delphi 2010. This time I intend to port some of my code (small scale) to see how difficult is to do it at large scale.
