Re: [DUG] Delphi for PHP again
Cameron, if someone else was asking the question I am, I might well give him your reply too. Having invested the time in it, I haven't reached the point where I can chuck it out and relearn something else. Bit by bit, I have already replaced most of D4P with straight php, html or javascript - mostly for efficiency. The only thing left now is the query and grid. And the panel does make it a lot easier than using html-table manually. Finally the debugger started working (its just temperamental), but I don't need it now.

Re: [DUG] Delphi for PHP
Graham, I have simply not believed the deploy tool and uploaded the complete vcl to the web. This way, I know its not an issue. I had wondered about the php version, but not blaming that yet. Really the major issue is php itself - based on basic (arguably the first kiddy language invented over 30 years ago). I cant believe we are using it now !! Slight misspelling of an identifier and one is history with errors that have nothing to do with reality. I have had ajax stop working. Then query-open would not work but query-active = true would etc The issue of the oncreate firing multiple times turned out to be caching (probably by the php engine itself - nothing else makes sense) as I had cleared the browser cache. Once I fixed that with some html tags, the refresh from ajax has stopped working. It no longer refreshes the control as it used to - until the form is submitted. I am going to have one more go at ajax based data control refresh on another form. If that doesnt work, then I will convert all of the delphi stuff to php. The ide is still useful as a project manager. I finally discovered the _problem with constants_ in another file. if there is no vcl in the page (form) then the constants work. As soon as vcl is involved, they are no longer visible... I discovered the _problem with functions_ in another file. There must be no spaces between the identifier and the bracket. Then they work.

If you follow the delpoy instructions (such as they are) then that may be one problem in not installing the deploy files (only a few of which surely are used for a simple app) in the correct ind searchable folders. Another and maybe more significant source of errors is the fact that D4PHP assumes you are going to have PHP 5 on the host, which may or may not be the case - check with phpinfo() This last one plus the poor documentation has put my D4PHP life on hold until the situation clears - aside to Embarcadero !! - can we have some better documentation and examples ? - please Best of luck Graham Marsden __ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5949 (20110313) __ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com ___ NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi mailing list Post: delphi@delphi.org.nz Admin: http://delphi.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi Unsubscribe: send an email to delphi-requ...@delphi.org.nz with Subject: unsubscribe
[DUG] Access to street maps
I have a D2009 application which holds the addresses of employees and the customers they service. Is there a way that I can display a map with a selected address? Ideally, I would also like to be able to get the distance between two addresses. I assume that this information is available from Google or Wises, but have no idea how to go about accessing it. I’m guessing it will be a Web Service, with which I have limited experience (I have an interface to one). Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.

Re: [DUG] Delphi Starter Edition
I don't think you can rely on your charitable status to avoid the ridiculous $1000 license condition as that is $1000 *revenue*, not profit. Quite how revenue is defined and how Embarcadero would identify and apportion income as deriving from Starter built apps or services is not specified. If you create some code that is used in an area of a web site that also has a donate facility, for example... does the income from those donations count? There is no special allowance made for non-profit organizations and charitable donations are not specifically identified separately from income, so it seems impossible to say for sure that your use of Delphi Starter would be certain to fall under the US$1000 revenue threshold (unless your use of Delphi is entirely and utterly not connected with any income/donation generating activity in your organisation). You could just hope that they never come knocking on your door as ask to see your accounts and set about trying to prove that your license is invalid (tho actually the boot would be on the other foot - it would no doubt be up to you to prove that your license *is* valid, not the other way around), but one would have to think that if they didn't intend ever following through and applying this revenue limit then they wouldn't have bothered adding it to the license conditions in the first place. Speaking for myself, I think the revenue limit on the license is a mistake (almost as ridiculous as the imposition of Interbase and the removal of DBExpress) but sadly not one that I expect Embarcadero to correct any time soon, if ever. -Original Message- From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Paul A Norman Sent: Sunday, 13 March 2011 15:37 To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] Delphi Starter Edition Thanks Joylon and Todd, that has sorted that out, ...

Re: [DUG] Access to street maps
I was the Product Marketing Manager for the company that, up to a few months ago, used to supply the data to Google Maps. Yes, essentially you are right and Google have not really worked very hard at gaining revenue from that source, however that time will come and it is important to know where you stand. Essentially, once you have turnover, then you will need to purchase commercial licences but hopefully that will mean that you are making lots of money. - Google will want some that money. Actually, I think that its a great commercial licence. I only wish Delphi and some toolmakers used the same licence. I'd love to develop stuff using, for example the latest Delphi and Woll2Woll's InfoPower tools but I just can't justify the licence cost until I get over a certain turnover, THEN I could buy them.

Re: [DUG] Access to street maps
I am guessing that the certain turnover you have in mind is significantly higher than the US$1000 revenue limit attached to Starter Edition. If you do the math on those license terms, basically Embarcadero want your first $1000 revenue for themselves - they take a $200 down payment then grab the next $800 as soon as you earn it, taking you over the $1000 limit triggering the point at which you then have to pay to upgrade to Pro, which will cost you 100% of that $800 you just earned. So you better be sure of earning not just that initial $1000, but AT LEAST $270/annum thereafter if you want to stay current (that's what your Revenue Assurance, ahem, I mean Software Assurance will cost you). Oops, actually, you'll need to earn $1270, since when you upgrade from Starter to Pro you'll need an additional $270 for your initial Revenue Assurance payment. Imho this renders Starter Edition dead in the water for the open source/community/hobby developers that Embarcadero claim to be aiming it at, for whom revenue is a potentially sporadic and uncertain thing someone could *easily* earn over $1000 in the first year then significantly less than that thereafter. You don't get to deduct any costs from these revenue numbers, so even if everything you earn from Delphi gets sunk into hosting/traffic costs for providing your work to the community etc, Embarcadero don't care - it's not profit they are counting, only income/revenue. If they absolutely had to have a revenue threshold (as some sort of corporate/enterprise licensing woobie blanket) , it should have been nearer $5K or even $10K. imho From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Steve Peacocke Sent: Monday, 14 March 2011 09:42 To: NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: Re: [DUG] Access to street maps I was the Product Marketing Manager for the company that, up to a few months ago, used to supply the data to Google Maps.

This way, I know its not an issue. I had wondered about the php version, but not blaming that yet. Really the major issue is php itself - based on basic (arguably the first kiddy language invented over 30 years ago). I cant believe we are using it now !! Slight misspelling of an identifier and one is history with errors that have nothing to do with reality

If you follow the delpoy instructions (such as they are) then that may be one problem in not installing the deploy files (only a few of which surely are used for a simple app) in the correct ind searchable folders. Another and maybe more significant source of errors is the fact that D4PHP assumes you are going to have PHP 5 on the host, which may or may not be the case - check with phpinfo() This last one plus the poor documentation has put my D4PHP life on hold until the situation clears - aside to Embarcadero !! - can we have some better documentation and examples ? - please Best of luck Graham Marsden -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Having invested the time in it, I haven't reached the point where I can chuck it out and relearn something else. Bit by bit, I have already replaced most of D4P with straight php, html or javascript - mostly for efficiency. The only thing left now is the query and grid. And the panel does make it a lot easier than using html-table manually. Finally the debugger started working (its just temperamental), but I don't need it now.

Re: [DUG] Contents of Delphi digest...
Ø Just wondering if there is a Tutorial on how to trim replies? Ø I think highlighting the text and deleting works ? Its a tough one for a mail list, as context for a reply isnt intrinsically preserved in the medium. If replying in the main to a number of points/questions from a number of posts, then top replying and leaving the email history intact and attached not only can be useful but in some cases critical (for the reply to make sense). At other times simply obliterating the email history may be appropriate. At yet other times, more careful editing and selective quoting of specific passages with relevant replies may be better, though this obviously entails the most effort. Its one of those things where One Rule to Rule Them All cant work (unless that rule is: Be considerate in your reply-quoting) J From: delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz [mailto:delphi-boun...@delphi.org.nz] On Behalf Of Marshland Engineering Sent: Thursday, 31 March 2011 13:12 To: delphi@delphi.org.nz Subject: Re: [DUG] Contents of Delphi digest...

[DUG] Firebird INSERT TIBQuery
I am running some routine database where the program on startup interrogates the database and updates fields if it as an old version. Adding Tables and Fields works fine. Also in one case I want to do an INSERT statement and this does now work. This is using D2007/IB and TIBQuery component, and all commands are executed using statements like IBQuery1.SQL.text:='INSERT INTO SECTOR (ID, SECTORDESC) VALUES (1001,' +Quotedstr(Desc1)+')'; try IBTransaction1.StartTransaction; IBQuery1.SQL.Execute; Status:='OK'; except Status:='error'; end; if IBTransaction1.InTransaction then IBTransaction1.commit; The same structure works for adding a table and ALTER TABLE (adding fields), and does as expected, but not for the INSERT. The Status is set to OK - the except is not triggered. But no INSERT is done. As far as I can see all Commits are done. Anyone have an idea why the INSERT statements are not working?
