Delphi: First try on an XSD for .groupproj files

Posted by jpluimers on 2013/08/31

Delphi introduced the .groupproj files to support MSBUILD.

I couldn’t find an XSD for it, but need to do some fiddling with those files, so I created one. It’s not very detailed, I think it gets most of the definition right.

The checkin is on my BeSharp.net mercurial repository on BitBucket:

Delphi: about 3 weeks ago, the XE5 branch was added to the RadStudioDemos repository:

Too bad the Sourceforge does not do stats pages any more, so you it is a lot harder to correlate project activity with potential release dates any more.

But: about 3 weeks ago, the XE5 branch was added to the RadStudioDemos repository:

Dutch stop of the RAD Studio in Action LIVE! event: September 7th, Leiden (close to Amsterdam) with extra conference track.

Posted by jpluimers on 2013/08/27

The Dutch stop of the RAD Studio In Action LIVE! tour is on September 7th.

The venue location is via Holiday Inn Leiden Hotels: Haagse Schouwweg 10, 2332 KG  Leiden, The Netherlands.

It is close to the advertised “Amsterdam Netherlands” (about half an hour drive), close to the A44 highway and close enough to public transport. And it is indeed on Saturday September 7, 2013

Delphi – finding the VERxxx define for a particular Delphi version: use JEDI.INC

Posted by jpluimers on 2009/10/15

Edit 20140822 since originally posting, JEDI moved to a GIT repository, so I changed some URLs and added that it is up to date until Delphi XE7.

Finding the correct VERxxx conditional define for a particular Delphi version is asked by a lot of people.

Even the first link in the above search, does not contain the full list!
But: JCL comes to the rescue

The JCL file JEDI.INC usually (read: like 99.999% of the time) is up to that with that information soon.
Currently, it contains all the defines starting with Delphi 1, up to Delphi 2010 XE7.

You can always browse the to JEDI.INC with this link to the sourceforge trunk. link to the GitHub master version.

In fact that file contains a lot more useful defines.
Actually, having the JCL and/or JVCL at hand is a very good practice: it is filled with high quality code that solves a lot of everyday problems.

Note:

VER190 (by some people attributed to the wrong Delphi version) is only used by Delphi 2007 for .NET (Delphi 2007 for Win32 used VER185 by itself and shares VER180 with Delphi 2006 for Win32).

The number 13 (in between Delphi 2009 aka Delphi 12, and Delphi 2010 aka Delphi 14) was never used as a Delphi version number
Since Delphi is mainly developed in the USA, and since a lot people there have Triskaidekaphobia, they showed mercy to those and skipped Delphi 13.
