<0> hm is it possible to transfer a delphi license from one computer to another?
<1> you can copy/paste the error address
<1> ootje: probably not
<1> and go to one of the menus
<1> "Find Address"
<1> it will jump to it
<0> ki9a: eh, so what then after you exhaust the "activation" count?
<1> if it can find it.
<1> ootje: You have to call boreland.
<0> blaergh.
<0> another reason why i sometimes end up using cracks or keygens for apps i own legally, but are so !"() anal when it comes to auth/licenses and crap
<2> ootje: It works. have someone here that logs in on more than one computer, and apparently the licensce is in his roaming profile.
<2> Works fine.
<1> same computers?
<1> You can try copying the .borland dir in your home dir.
<0> ki9a: different computer, i'm reinstalling my system on another more powerful box



<3> there's a reg*.txt file
<3> that holds the license
<1> only for Turbo
<1> and trials'
<0> but i'm sure its not as easy as copying those
<0> theres the license manager thingie hmm
<3> ki9a: no, if you use telephone activation the ysend one of them too
<1> ah
<1> via the phone?
<3> well email activation
<1> :)
<2> Copying the file works fine ootje. Like I said, with a roaming profile, it picks up the registration on every computer.
<2> Without doing anything special.
<0> Drk`Angel: hmmm ok sweet, i'll try that then
<2> I don't think there are any other files in the profile directory, but I've never looked :)
<1> nah
<1> it's .borland on Kylix too
<1> ;)
<4> ok - if I have the address is there any way to get more information from it?
<4> the address of an AV
<1> not really
<1> You should install the JCL
<1> it has an exception dialog thingy.
<1> it shows a full call stack.
<2> You used to be able to jump to an address, but I haven't used that in years.
<2> And it always seemed kinda broken anyways.
<4> I just want the info for logging
<4> hmm
<3> I use JCL
<3> works pretty well
<1> "just"
<1> An AV address is pretty useless actually
<4> ok - I will check out this jcl thing
<4> the stack trace would be useful if nothing else
<3> I use JCL to mail myself error reports
<0> oh, appears copying the .borland dir worked.. thanks!:)
<1> heh
<1> I think they wanted that hidden
<4> mith: can you telli t not to show a dialog?
<0> now just to uninstall it, then install it again !"()!"#!"#
<0> i installed update1 but it didnt work or something, as both update1+2 refuse to install now
<0> (bds2005)
<3> Wraith: default behaviour
<3> if you want to show a dialog you have to do some extra stuff (like write an application.onException handler)
<4> oh I see
<4> this could be useful
<0> did you try linking your app with madExcept ?
<0> it can provide some helpful stuff sometimes
<0> think it also uses madDisasm to give you a dump of what went down at the address it faulted at
<0> + stack traces et al
<4> yeah - I don't want to use that though - it isn't handling well in this app for some reason
<0> bummer
<3> ootje: JCL does some of what madexcept does, but for free
<0> MithWork: madExcept is free also for non-commercial
<0> MithWork: and mad* stuff is very cheap anyhow for commercial uses also
<3> they must have changed their license then since last I checked
<0> well its like usd$99 anyhow
<3> used to be more IIRC
<5> anyone got a simple unit or something to send text to a window?
<3> SendKeys.pas ?



<5> now to find it :/
<3> it's in the extras dir of your delphi cd
<6> Trying to add a .dll as reference in one of my projects. I add it, and when i try to copile it, it says, required package not found. Any ideas what could be wrong?
<1> .NET?
<4> .mac!
<4> haha
<3> hey, they finally named "xena". SHe's now called Eris :)
<7> cool:-)
<8> Where do exception objects get freed? And can you write a standard Destroy destructor for them?
<1> as long as you override then
<1> them
<1> and they get freed at the end of the Except
<8> Well Exception has no Destroy
<1> as long as you don't re-reaise them
<1> Sure it has.
<1> TObject has it.
<8> hmmm...
<8> Oh
<8> Got you
<8> cool, thanks
<6> Just dont get it. The .dll is there, but d2005 gives me errors.
<6> if i remove the reference, all compiles just fine.
<3> are you using run-time packages ?
<6> The file is EnvDTE.dll
<1> Why are you using EnvDTE ?
<1> You aren't licensed to use that with Delphi
<1> afaik
<6> A component from Telerik uses it. And it works fine with other componets.
<6> Btw, it has also worked fine before, but now i get this error.
<8> ki9a...Exceptions constructor Create ... is not virtual, so I may not override it, correct?
<6> Its almost as its referenced wrong somewhere, but i cannot see where. Move the mouse over the refrenced file, it is at the correct location.
<1> Descendnt: you don't override a constructor
<7> you inherit and add stff
<1> yeah
<8> why is that ki9a? I made some other objects with a virtual constructor and then override in descendant cl***es, should I not do that?
<1> Virtual/Override is nice
<1> if you use TComponent descendents
<1> or if you want to use cl*** references.
<8> I created a new object model for my app, descending from TObject
<1> but if you always create it through it's cl***
<1> like TMyCl***.Create(..)
<1> there's no point in it being virtual
<8> OK, just hide it and call inherited then?
<8> does it hurt anything to have it virtual?
<9> WraithX: have $ prepended to the string before you p*** it to StrToInt()... then it'll ***ume you're talking about a hex value... var myptr: procedure; begin myptr := Pointer(StrToInt('$' + numberstr));
<6> Anyone got any ideas, this has worked before, so i find it very strange.
<6> I had the same problem with another component, then i reinnstalled delphi, and it worked, but there must be an wasier way.
<8> Oh!!! Crap, I finally understand the purpose of virtual...OK, so virtual means - if you call it for an object as the ancestor cl***, it runs the implementation for the actual descendant cl***, right?
<1> yes.
<8> was that yes for me?
<1> yes.
<1> that was also for you.
<9> was that yes for me?
<1> you are replying to something Wraith asked in 1940
<9> was that no for me?
<9> ;P
<8> :) OK heh, so any method that will be called only from the descendant cl*** has no need to be virtual...sweet, you don't know how much you just clarified something for me ki9a, thank you
<9> - was that yes for me? - no - was that no for me? - yes - was that yes for me? etc.etc.
<8> now, does it hurt anything if they are virtual? Should I bother changing my cl***es that have unecessary virtuosity?:p
<9> virtuosity? :)
<8> I coined the term :D
<1> there.
<9> ki9a, lol ;P
<8> lol
<6> New project, add reference to envdte.dll, try to compile, required package 'envdte' not found. Damit.
<3> adjust your library path ?
<1> what envdte did you add it to ?
<1> 8.0?
<1> ro 7.1?
<8> ki9a should it hurt anything to have unecessary virtuals?
<1> just my eyes.
<8> kk :)
<8> thanks :)
<6> ki9a, 7.00.9466
