Modeling\Inspector |
| Description: |
Steps: |
Unexpected behaviour of object inspector when used by modeling. In isn't the same as when used with form designer.
|
Part A:
1. Create a new win32 VCL forms application
2. Select the form in design mode
3. Show the object inspector and make the object inspector so that only half of the of form properties are visbile.
4. Make sure the list is sorted by names
5. Move the vertical scroll bar down to the bottom. You should see the "visible" property which is near the end and you should not see "Action" which is the first property.
6. Click on the "visible" property value and drop down the list, select "false".
7. Note that the "visible" property is still selected and the OI doesn't scroll at all. That's fine.
Part B:
2. Add an OLE Automation object to your project, use "MyClass" as class name
3. Show model view, accept modeling
4. Add a new method to IMyClass. Name it "Func".
5. Select "Func" in modeling (actually it should already been selected since you just created)
6. Look at the object inspector.
7. Move the vertical scroll bar down to the bottom. You should see the "UI default" property which is near the end and you should not see "Alias" which is the first property. Adjust the height do that you don't see both properties !
8. Select "UI default" property, drop down the list bow and select "fasle"
9. You see the object inspector scrolling to the first property
Expected: same behaviour as in step A.1: the OI doesn't scroll and simply show the value you changed where you changed it.

Modeling |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| Delphi Win32, .Net: Subrange types: show subrange type definition in the diagram instead of System.Integer. |
enum E1 = (a, b, c, d, e, f);
MySubrange = b..e;
In this case MySubrange type is shown on the diagram (1) as typedef, (2) with System.Integer as a type.
Object Inspector shows correct value "b..e". |

Modeling\Inspector |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| C++ Builder: Inspector: It should be possible to set multiple inheritance for classes and structs via extends property in OI |
Since classes can have more than one parent- it should be possible to set parents via Extends property in OI
like Implements property for Classes in Delphi (Select Interfaces to Implement dialog) |

IDE\Translation Tools\Repository |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| Translation Repository must opens empty and have no information in default.tmx file at first time after install RAD. |
install RAD
open Translation repository from ETM or RAD
\\ or see default.tmx on disk
see that there is two unnecessary translation strings:
Japanese: UTF-7
and
German: UTF-7
UPD. On 12.0.3139.16067.1 build:
there is related problem with refresh in Translation repository: so, if user try to add several strings in default repository(that contains Jap and Germ translations as described above) - only part of strings is visible, re-save and re-open tmx file needed.
if repository is non-default - any other tmx or default was clear and save before adding - there is no refresh problems

Modeling |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| Delphi Win32. Remove fields from globals entries completely. Now if all fields of one type are removed, keywords are kept. |
1. add e.g. code:
var
A:Integer;
resourcestring
B='test';
as globals to any namespace
2. Go to Model view or Class Explorer> expand globals entry for this NS > RClick on A or B > Delete.
Result:
var/resourcestring keywords are not removed from source code.
Note: if add field e.g. by Model View and then use Undo - field would remove completely

VCL\Ribbon Controls |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| Changing TRibbon.Font does not change Font of TRibbonApplicationMenuBar. Moreover, TRibbonApplicationMenuBar does not have Font property and ParentFont property. So it cannot show Surrogate Pair or Combining Characters on its items. |
1. Create new VCL Form Application.
2. Drop a Ribbon on Form
3. Create an ApplicatiomMenuBar and an item on it.
4. Set "Meiryo" to Ribbon.Font.Name.
5. Set #$D842#$DFB7 to the caption of item.
6. Display the item of ApplicatiomMenuBar.
You will find that Surrogate Pair is displayed as rectangle. |

Steps: |
Class Explorer fails to show any info for large units
Attached to this bug are 2 units that show this. One is a contrived unit (LongUnit.pas). The other is an actual IDE source file (WinMsg.pas)

Create a new Delphi project
Add both of the attached units to the project
View | Delphi class Explorer
Note that it only shows a node for Project1
If you start removing large chunks of code from either unit, eventually that unit will show up in the explorer
TEST CASE 2:
In dev build, create a new delphi project
Project | Add to project
Navigate to $(TP)\app\debugger directory
Select every .PAS file and click Open
Ignore any errors that appear (for form loading)
Look at the delphi class explorer

Modeling\UML Diagrams |
| Description: |
Steps: |
| Delphi:UML Diagrams: It should be possible to add UML diagram in following case |
I have two projects. The first one defines class diagrams and their
> code counterparts (VCL application : JSetup). The second project
> (Console application [*]: JSetupDesign) defines sequence and activity
> diagrams. However if I add a new diagram into my second project (using
> a namespace btw) - it doesn't matter what type - I can see the working
> area of the new diagram. Furthermore the currently added diagram has
> no name in the model view tree. It is just a blank name. If I try to
> change the name, it is denied : "Property value cannot be set"
> Eventually if I try to add any UML component (say a little man symbol
> for use cases) the diagram item is removed from the model view tree
> view and is replaced with the UML symbol that I just added.
> I must say that I did not encounter this behaviour in the first
> project - yet.
> Saving and reopening the project leads to the fact that the diagram
> isn't shown anymore but the file in the project folder still exists.
[saa]: The first problem is reproduced with the similar results.
1. problem is reproduced if only project group JSetupProjectGroup is opened 2. attempt to add design diagram to JSetupDesign(contains only diagrams, no source code elements) -> work area is opened but no added diagram in model view tree(files in project folder are created)
WORKAROUND:
1) Reload has no action.
2) If we add new namespace - diagrams is added to this namespace correctly.
3) If we open JSetupDesign separately from project group- diagrams are added normally
4) for JSetup project - diagrams are created normally
I found that project is corrupted after add modeling action to JSetup project, that is
1 case: run project group: JSetup project- modeling is off (Model support files are removed), JSetupDesign project- modeling is on(Model support files are original) in this case UML diagrams are added correctly
2 case: if switch on Modeling on JSetup - project fails |

2. Restore the window so it is not maximized.
3. Resize the window so it is very narrow (drag the right handle horizontally to the left).
//The bar containing the menu resizes horizontally, obscuring most of the menu items.
4. Resize the window so it is wide again.

RTL\Delphi\Format + Float |
| Description: |
Steps: |
FloatToText fails with CurrencyString longer than 1 character because the Ansi version of the function is called from the "Unicode" version.
The Ansi version of FloatToText needs to convert the CurrencyString to an Ansi string before using it.
Workaround:
After assigning CurrencyString, add this line:
AnsiString(Pointer(CurrencyString)) := AnsiString(CurrencyString);
Original description:
FloatToStrF fails with ffCurrency on some locales
|
Add to an event handler:
CurrencyString := 'R$';
ShowMessage(FloatToStrF(42, ffCurrency, 15, 2));
It displays "R" (string is truncated). In a DbGrid you get squares/random unicode chars. |

IDE hangs when trying to compile certain files
[QC Description]
This is an error from the newsgroups. The files that come with this report as attachment will hang the IDE (it ismply does not respond anymore, and will remain in this state until you kill it) if you do a Build project. But only if the file msg_dat.pas is NOT open in the editor.
QC Entry 66687
|
- Unzip attached project to its own directory
- Start Delphi 2009
- Open the .dpr or .dproj file of the project
- DO NOT open any of the units - Unit6 will be displayed automatically, but do not open the others
- Do a Project / Build
Exp: compiles with a few warnings
Act: shows a few warnings, and then IDE stops reacting.
The error does not happen if msg_dat.pas is open in a tab in the IDE! |

Generics : compilation failure with const parameters
[QC Description]
I encountered several cases of compilation failure of otherwise completely valid code when trying to port my list "templates" (using include tricks) to generics.
I managed to write some minimal code to reproduce the problem, the compiler fails with error E2037.
"[DCC Erreur] Crash.pas(33): E2037 La d�claration de 'DoNotCompile' diff�re de la d�claration pr�c�dente"
Note that changing "const" to "var" or removing the empty procedure or removing the a or b field will allow the code to compile.
For my full project I did not found an appropriate workaround (don't want to pass the argument as VAR and want to avoid a copy).

| Description: |
Steps: |
[QC Short Description]
Events of TCppWebBrowser are invoked with bogus parameters
[QC Description]
When events of the TCppWebBrowser are invoked, all passed parameters except for the this pointer (which is included in the closure pointer and not gathered by the invoke mechanism) contain bogus.
Following the stack trace down to TOleControl.InvokeEvent reveals that Params.cArgs is 0.
My system is Windows Server 2003 SP2, IE6, but the problem occurs on Windows XP SP3, IE6 as well.
(I placed it in the ActiveX area as I don't know whether it is a code generator or a framework issue.)
QC Entry 67043
|
- Create a new C++Builder project
- Drop a TCppWebBrowser component on the form.
- Use the object inspector to generate an OnTitleChange event.
- Change your source code to this:
...
__fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
: TForm(Owner)
{
CppWebBrowser1->Navigate (WideString (L"http://www.codegear.com/").c_bstr ());
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
void __fastcall TForm1::CppWebBrowser1TitleChange(TObject *Sender, BSTR Text)
{
Caption = Text;
}
...
- Now run the application.
Exp.: The form caption changes to "CodeGear Home Page".
Act.: The form caption changes to a random string.
When setting a breakpoint in the OnTitleChange event, the stack trace/locals view shows that TOleControl.InvokeEvent assumes that the event has zero parameters and therefore passes no arguments.
Interestingly, everything works well when using the Delphi equivalent, the TWebBrowser component. Re-importing TCppWebBrowser, however, results in the same problem. |

From the public forums:
VCL applications built with C++ Builder 2009 don't seem to run on
Windows 98 (SE), at least on the one system I tested. A new VCL
application with a single blank form crashes before the form is
displayed. However, applications built with C++ Builder 2007 do run
without problem on Windows 98.
-----
I did a quick test with Win98. Sure enough, running a BCB2009 .exe produces
3 exceptions at startup (2 0xeedfadeH in the .exe 1 0xc0000026H in
kernel32.dll). That is not how it is supposed to work. |
New VCL application
Copy to a system with win98 / NT 4 or earlier version of windows.
Run the app.

Adding a build event to a Delphi or C++Builder project corrupts the ordering of data in the project file - MD
[QC Short Description]
IDE does not respect per-project unit search path configuration
[QC Description]
When build scripts are used, the IDE seems to ignore per-project custom unit search path, and does not pass them to the compiler.
When a set of units is present in the default search path, but a project depends on a different version of those units that are located in a different directory, because unit search path override does not function correctly, compilation will fail.
QC Entry 66804
|
Create a new project;
Go to [Project Options] - [Delphi Compiler];
In the "Base" build configuration, type a custom directory in the "Search path" field;
Try to build the project;
In the "Output" window, locate the dcc32 compilation commandline;
Check the -U parameter clause, you will not see the custom directory you just typed in.
Updated steps (please read my comment):
** Before building the project, add something in the conditional defines and build script.
For example, define ABCD; and in pre-build script, add: echo $(DEFINES)
In addition, sometimes this problem seems to occur on the second+ build attempt, not the first.
i.e. Load the project, build it once and everything works, but then build again, you get error.
If it functions OK, the compilation commandline looks like:
...dcc32.exe ... --no-config ... -U "costum path"; ...
But when it malfuntions, the compilation commandline looks like:
...dcc32.exe ... --platform:x86 ... -U ...
(the custom path defined for the project is missing) |
