  • The Delphi Language for Mobile Development
    This document is an introduction to changes in the “Mobile” version of Delphi and the new Delphi ARM compiler. The focus of this document is to highlight the language changes and techniques that can be used to port existing code and to maintain backwards compatibility. Author: Marco Cantu, Delphi Product Manager, Embarcadero Technologies (suggest updates and integrations to [email protected]). Written with very significant technical contributions by Allen Bauer and the help of many reviewers. Document Revision: 1.0 Moving Delphi to mobile ARM platforms is part of a larger evolution for the Delphi language. As such, the R&D team here at Embarcadero adopted a new architecture that will be common among all Embarcadero languages. Rather than building the compiler and all of the related tools (often indicated with the term “toolchain”) in a completely proprietary and autonomous way, we decided to leverage an existing compiler and tool chain infrastructure that has broad industry support, making it faster for us to add new platforms and operating systems in the future as market demands change. Specifically, the new generation of Delphi compilers (and also the C++Builder compilers) utilize the LLVM architecture. What is this LLVM and why does this matter? Let’s take a quick look at LLVM, and return to our main topic later. The LLVM project has its main web site with a detailed description at http://llvm.org In short, LLVM is “a collection of modular and reusable compiler and tool-chain technologies”. Despite the name (which was originally an acronym, but it is now considered as “the full name of the project”), LLVM has little to do with virtual machines.

Database administrators are normally not wanted in these environments and therefore it is important that the third-party database management system is easy to set up and configure. For database independency, Visual DataFlex uses connectivity kits which are an abstraction layer between the internal interface in Visual DataFlex and the client software of the database manager in use.

I choose Delphi PHP 2.0, since I am fairly used to PHP. In order to install C++ Builder 2010, I had to upgrade my 2009 version. I have made an 2009 and 2010 upgrade shortcut on my desktop. You should find your upgrade program: | your start menu or in | the all program category | CodeGear RAD studio 2009 | Check for updates | Program | When finished upgrading the 2009 Builder, I could run the C++ Builder 2010 Setup program.

  • Managing Java EE Performance with Embarcadero's J Optimizer Request
    Tech Notes Managing Java EE Performance with Embarcadero’s J Optimizer Request Analyzer Al F. Mannarino, Embarcadero Technologies June 2008 Corporate Headquarters EMEA Headquarters Asia-Pacific Headquarters 100 California Street, 12th Floor York House L7. 313 La Trobe Street San Francisco, California 94111 18 York Road Melbourne VIC 3000 Maidenhead, Berkshire Australia SL6 1SF, United Kingdom Managing Java EE Performance Using Embarcadero J Optimizer Request Analyzer The iterative use of performance tools throughout the development process is critical for keeping performance and reliability problems under control as well as for producing fast, scalable Java EE and Java SE applications. Java™ technology is great for accelerating time-to market, but performance and reliability risks can become a serious challenge. Because Java technology provides a higher level of abstraction, it affords developers only a limited understanding of—and control over—the way their code is executed. Embarcadero J Optimizer offers a four-pronged attack at improving Java application performance. Three of those four prongs address developer performance considerations and are focused on individual developer productivity, identifying performance risks and reliability issues, and helping developers correct problems such as memory leaks, performance bottlenecks, and multi- threading issues. Within J Optimizer there are three profiling tools which help address these areas. • Profiler—examine memory and CPU use; identify memory leaks, inefficient temporary storage issues, CPU bottlenecks, and unit test performance regressions. • Thread Debugger—identify and analyze thread contention issues, thread-starvation, excessive locking, deadlocks, and other thread related issues. • Code Coverage—identify and analyze the classes, methods and lines of code that are being executed; remove dead code, improve quality, and improve the application's footprint.
