Delphi What’s new history and a docwiki URL trick
Posted by jpluimers on 2020/08/05
One of the great things about the Delphi docwiki structure is that the naming system is very consistent.
The consistency helps you quickly finding the What’s new for any version, just by getting the latest first.
Getting the latest one is based based on a docwiki redirection trick that always redirects from an “unversioned” URL to the latest one.
So these two “unversioned” URLs always get you there:
- http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/What%27s_New just the “What’s new” for the current release
- http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/What_Was_New_in_Past_Releases a list of “What’s new” links from the prior release all the way back to 2007
When writing this, the above links got me the below list. For consistency (as you cannot save URLs for prior versions in the WayBack machine because a brain-dead robots.txt setting which archive.is luckily ignores):

By now, there will hopefully be a few more Delphi versions released.
