[WayBack] The 10 commandments of navigating code reviews | TechBeacon:
How to survive, and thrive, in the sometimes-caustic world of code reviews.
Summary:
- Thou shalt not take it personally
- Thou shalt not marry thy code
- Thou shalt consider all feedback
- Thou shalt articulate thy rationale
- Thou shalt be willing to compromise
- Thou shalt contribute to others’ code reviews
- Thou shalt treat submitters how thou would like to be treated
- Thou shalt not be intimidated by the number of comments
- Thou shalt not repeat the same mistakes
- Thou shalt embrace the nits

Delphi 10.1 Berlin broke [RSP-19557] TParallel,Join does not create enough threads – Embarcadero Technologies. It was reported 9 months ago, and since it took quite some longer than a year for a new Delphi version to be released, I wonder if it is fixed by now.

I wrote about Vysor before, but totally forgot to mention that for like 2 years there have been (initially beta) standalone versions of Vysor based on the Electron framework that is also used by the Atom.io editor and Visual Studio code.
So here they are (:
- https://www.vysor.io/download.html
- https://vysornuts.clockworkmod.com/download/win32
- https://vysornuts.clockworkmod.com/download/osx
- There is no Linux version, but a workaround is described in https://github.com/koush/vysor.io/issues/242
Over time, these have been updated with new versions.

I always forget which sides of the connection throw this error, but the client side does as explained in [WayBack] delphi – Troubleshooting EIdConnClosedGracefully Exceptions? – Stack Overflow by [WayBack] Remy Lebeau the main Indy contributor:
EIdConnClosedGracefullymeans the other party … has disconnected its end of the connection. Once that exception has been raised, you cannot send more data to the other party. You must reconnect first.

I tend to forget that since TPair – introduced in Delphi 2009 – has had a TPair.Create(Key, Value)record initialiser since Delphi 2010, though only fully documented since Delphi XE4:
With some spart short methods, Cosmin Prund shows a really nice helper at [WayBack] delphi – TDictionary populated during create example code – Stack Overflow allowing a call like this:
with TDictHelper<Integer, string> do Dict := Make([P(1, 'one'), P(2, 'two')]);
His answer has all the details (including describing the pros and conse), so here is only the helper:
uses SysUtils, Generics.Collections; type TDictHelper<Key, Value> = class public class function P(const K:Key; const V:Value): TPair<Key, Value>; class function Make(init: array of TPair<Key, Value>): TDictionary<Key, Value>;overload; class function Make(KeyArray: array of Key; ValueArray: array of Value): TDictionary<Key, Value>;overload; end; { TDictHelper<Key, Value> } class function TDictHelper<Key, Value>.Make(init: array of TPair<Key, Value>): TDictionary<Key, Value>; var P: TPair<Key, Value>; begin Result := TDictionary<Key, Value>.Create; for P in init do Result.AddOrSetValue(P.Key, P.Value); end; class function TDictHelper<Key, Value>.Make(KeyArray: array of Key; ValueArray: array of Value): TDictionary<Key, Value>; var i:Integer; begin if Length(KeyArray) <> Length(ValueArray) then raise Exception.Create('Number of keys does not match number of values.'); Result := TDictionary<Key, Value>.Create; for i:=0 to High(KeyArray) do Result.AddOrSetValue(KeyArray[i], ValueArray[i]); end; class function TDictHelper<Key, Value>.P(const K: Key; const V: Value): TPair<Key, Value>; begin Result := TPair<Key, Value>.Create(K, V); end;

From one of my scripts: it will find a 64-bit 7z.exe if it was installed as part of the 7-zip installer, then run it with the parameters provided to the batch file.
setlocal
:verify7zip
:: registry trick from http://www.robvanderwoude.com/files/sortdate2_nt.txt
:: extra trick: tokens=2* allows to get the 3rd (and beyond: space delimited!) value in one variable %%b
for /F "tokens=2*" %%a IN ('REG QUERY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\7-Zip" /v Path64 2^>nul') do set sevenZipDirectoryPath=%%b
call :checkMissingSetting sevenZipDirectoryPath || goto :help
set sevenZipExeFilePath=%sevenZipDirectoryPath%7z.exe
if not exist "%sevenZipExeFilePath%" call :showError "No 7-zip executable at %sevenZipExeFilePath%" || goto :help
:run7zip
"%sevenZipExeFilePath%" %*
endlocal
goto :end
:checkMissingSetting
if not defined %1 call :notifyMissingSetting %1 && exit /b 1
call :showSetting %1
exit /b 0
goto :end
:notifyMissingSetting
echo Registry didn't provide the environment variable "%1"
goto :end
:showError
:: remove double quotes using tilde trick:
echo %~1
:help
echo Syntax: %0 7z.exe-commandline-parameters
goto :end
:end
