A week with Delphi, from comets to 4K monitors, passing through an update and some expiring offers. A nicely dis-organized list:
- We landed on a comet, and Delphi had a small role: community.embarcadero.com/index.php/blogs/entry/delphi-s-involvement-with-the-esa-rosetta-comet-spacecraft-project-1
- Using 4K monitors or have customers using them? Don't miss the VCL guide for high-resolution monitors at www.helpandmanual.com/downloads_delphi.html. Great in depth tutorial, and some work for us to improve the VCL and make 4K monitors support even easier.
- Still not on XE7? Great offers expiring ... today! See at www.embarcadero.com/radoffer
- US events focused on VCL migration and modernization at community.embarcadero.com/index.php/article/news/1049-don-t-miss-these-rad-studio-xe7-us-live-events. Similar events are taking place around the world.
- Delphi Mobile Apps: Diabetes Calc at itunes.apple.com/nl/app/diabetes-calc/id933124834
- Gnostice Document Viewer getting on mobile at www.fmxexpress.com/document-viewer-component-suite-for-delphi-xe7-firemonkey-on-android-ios-osx-and-windows/ and www.gnostice.com/XtremeDocumentStudio_Delphi.asp
- A company happy to use Delphi (and growing quite a bit): delphihacker.blogspot.it/2014/11/wideorbit-recognized-for-173-revenue.html
- Design time support for FireDACJSONReflect clients.... interesting article (but in Italian) at blog.delphiedintorni.it/2014/11/tfddatasetprovider-un-supporto-design.html
- FireUI Q&A at blogs.embarcadero.com/sarinadupont/2014/11/11/working-with-fireui-in-rad-studio-xe7
I told you this was really a bit random, but all links are relevant. Finally, even if not strictly Delphi, Embarcadero is about to launch a new version of InterBase. Live and online previews early December. Read all at delphiaball.co.uk/2014/11/12/interbase-xe7-first-look-events/. This is the last blog post of this week, and quite a relevant one. From comets to InterBase, nice week.
PS. I spoke at BE-Delphi yesterday, nice event as usual -- see my twitter account for images and information -- and I'll be at SDC in Papendal (Netherlands) on December 1st and 2nd.
