Delphi, Mac, iOS and more....
Sunday 30 October 2011
Embarcadero recently launched the latest release of its RAD Studio application development suite, which includes tools for developing using C++, PHP and Delphi, the Pascal language tool originally created by Borland. One of the new features of RAD Studio XE2 is its support for both Mac OSX and iOS development in addition to Windows. When I spoke to Embarcadero’s Chief Evangelist, David Intersimone, I asked him about RAD Studio’s cross-platform features. But, as a long-time Delphi programmer myself, I began by asking about Delphi…

Mac users look down on PC users: they think we have no taste. PC users look down on Mac users: we think they have no technical savvy. For almost thirty years I’ve been a PC user. Since the release of Windows 3.1 in 1992 I have been not just a PC user but also a Windows user. A few weeks ago, I did the unthinkable: I bought myself a Mac.

I first reviewed Vue (Vue d’Esprit as it was then called) many years ago. It started life as simple scenery designer aimed at amateur users. But my, how it’s grown!

First the good news – the internals of Visual Studio haven’t been futzed with. Not much as far as I can see anyway – there’s no new WPF Editor implementation or anything like that, thank goodness. The other good news is a new image editor that allows (gasp) transparency or alpha channel editing. If you’ve ever had the misfortune to use the old Visual Studio image editor, you’ll raise a cheer (as did the audience at BUILD when this was announced, apparently).

Where do old workstations go to when they are ‘retired’? For me, they become servers! For example, I have a perfectly serviceable Dell Core 2 (3GHz with 3 GB RAM) PC which has been recently superseded by a HP 8100 Elite with 12GB RAM and running Windows 7 x64. The HP is a lot faster than the old Dell, but the Dell is ok and too good to be junked.

Or how I was saved from a reinstallation
Thursday 4 August 2011
I (along with a good few others, I think) had a most peculiar problem yesterday. Visual Studio refused to debug. To be precise, it crashed with a SEHException whenever it tried to open a file while debugging. Initially, I assumed it was my fat fingers that had caused the problem, so I deleted everything in the project’s object folders and tried again: no go. Next, I reset the experimental hive in the registry: no go. Then reboot: no go.

I started writing for the computer press back in the mid ’80s. For a number of years I wrote a column called ‘Rants and Raves’ for Computer Shopper magazine. My first column appeared in the first issue (March, 1988) and I’ve reproduced that in its entirety elsewhere.
