3 min readTo get the file URL from the absolute path in Delphi, you can use the TURI class from the System.Net.URLClient unit. Here's how you can do it:Add the System.Net.URLClient unit to your uses clause: uses ..., System.Net.URLClient; Create an instance of the TURI class and pass the absolute file path to its constructor: var filePath: string; fileURI: TURI; begin filePath := 'C:\path\to\file.ext'; fileURI := TURI.

5 min readRenaming a batch of subdirectories in Delphi can be achieved by following these steps:First, locate the main directory that contains the subdirectories you want to rename. Use the Delphi TDirectory class to retrieve a list of all the subdirectories within the main directory. You can use the GetDirectories method, which returns a string array. Iterate through the array of subdirectories using a loop, such as a for loop, to process each subdirectory.

7 min readTo send data between JavaScript and Delphi, you can use various techniques such as:AJAX requests: JavaScript can send HTTP requests to a Delphi backend using APIs like XMLHttpRequest or fetch. On the Delphi side, you can handle these requests, parse the data, perform any necessary processing, and send back a response to JavaScript.Example JavaScript code for sending an AJAX request to a Delphi backend: var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhr.

4 min readIn Delphi, empty characters or white spaces are defined using the AnsiSpace constant.This constant represents the white space characters including space (' '), tab (#9), line feed (#10), carriage return (#13), and vertical tab (#11). It is defined in the SysUtils unit.To check if a character is empty, you can make use of the AnsiChar type's built-in functions like IsSpace, IsControl, or IsWhiteSpace.

Here is a brief explanation of the process.Create a printer object: Use the TPrinter class to create a printer object that represents the printer connected to the system. This allows you to access various properties and methods related to printing. Prepare the form for printing: Before printing, it is important to prepare the form to provide an appropriate layout.

4 min readTo define a function in Delphi, you need to follow a specific syntax:Begin by specifying the function declaration using the keyword function.Provide the function name, which should be a valid identifier and describes the purpose of the function.Include a pair of parentheses () after the function name. You can define any parameters within these parentheses that your function may require. Parameters are separated by commas and consist of a type followed by the parameter name.

8 min readIn Delphi, exceptions are an important part of error handling and debugging. However, in certain cases, you may prefer to disable all exception raising to prevent errors from being propagated and to have more control over your application's behavior. Here is how you can achieve this:Firstly, locate the project file of your Delphi application. This file has a ".dpr" extension and is typically named after your project. Open it in a text editor or the Delphi IDE.

7 min readIn Haskell, you can convert an integer to an Int by using the function fromIntegral. This function takes an integer value as its argument and returns the corresponding Int value.Here's an example of converting an integer to an Int: -- Convert an integer to an Int convertToInt :: Integer -> Int convertToInt n = fromIntegral n In the above code, the convertToInt function takes an Integer value n as its argument and uses the fromIntegral function to convert it to an Int.

7 min readIn Haskell, looping through a list can be achieved using recursion or higher-order functions. Here are a few approaches:Recursion: One way to loop through a list is by defining a recursive function. The function can have a base case that handles an empty list and a recursive case that processes the head of the list and calls itself with the rest of the list.
