Why would you receive the notifications ? Just to know what change has been commited to the repository almost as soon as it is. Without this notification, you would have to use svn client to see the change log. Depending on the number of interested peoples, we will either send individual emails or use another mailing list. -- francois.pie...@overbyte.be The author of the freeware multi-tier middleware MidWare The author of the freeware Internet Component Suite (ICS) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

[twsocket] [OT] Borland C++ Builder 5
Hi Everyone I know this is off-topic, but I figured you may be able to help best. We inherited some code that is written for Borland C++ Builder 5 but due to licensing restrictions, we were not given the tool itself. Now, we tried to build it with C++ Builder 2006 (free and paid) but ended up with many internal compiler error problems. It seems that this is due to the heavy use of STL in the code. I was wondering if any of you have old copies of Borland C++ Builder 5 that you would like to clear off. If yes, could you contact me off-list moh...@onghu.com with some quotation so that I can discuss it here. I could transfer you the cost by Paypal or something and you'll need to mail me the CD to Singapore (unless you're *in* Singapore!). Any ideas where else we may be able to get a copy or two?

Re: [twsocket] Idea about forming a new mailing list
I'll just add to that one bit. There is a good balance between 100% moderation and spam control which is what I follow on my mailing lists on Yahoo! My default policy is that a user cannot post unmoderated. Anyone can sign on and listen but when they want to post, their *first* post is moderated by me. When a new user posts to the list, I check if it is spam - if it's spam, I don't bother with it. If it's a reasonable post, I allow it and change the user's status to being unmoderated. It works very very well! The only way someone can spam is if they first post a relevant on-topic email. I don't know if spam bots do that yet... Cheers Mohit. Dave Baxter wrote: From personal experience. I'm a registered user of several Yahoo mailing list's, and it's a pain! They regularly get hit with spam, and-or the address lists are hacked and then used outside of Yahoo by www spammers.

Unsubscribing yourslef doesn't fix the spam problem either, implying the spamers recipient list is no longer part of Yahoo. Yes, you get email messages, digest delivery a web accessable searchable archive, and file area, but at a cost of serious vulnerability to prying eyes, many of (at best) unknown intent.

Unless you plan to have a 100% moderated Yahoo list (that needs to be 24/7) that Francois will willingly partake in, I'd say for now anyway, forget it. Same thing about web based forums.

Re: [twsocket] [OT] Hotfix rollup for all BDS 2006 versions andallTurbos
The non-free one can take components, not 100% sure about ActiveX controls, though.. From the website: Extensible component model - Use included 200+ app components, build your own, download free, or buy 3rd party components The Delphi Visual Component Library (VCL) is a full-featured and ever expanding application development framework. Take advantage of a vast array of commercial, open source, and freeware components to add functionality to the existing library of over 200 out-of-the-box components. All code and applications built with the Delphi VCL will be compatible with Delphi for .NET. Cheers Mohit.

Thanks, John Turbo Delphi Explorer is really Delphi 10 Personal and is free, except it can be used for commercial development but in theory does not support any third party components, unless you patch the code.

Arno Garrels wrote: Angus Robertson - Magenta Systems Ltd wrote: Since all the VCL source is supplied, I guess Borland could skip help completely. Borlands online help is far more than a nicely designed, colored table of function and property names. Yes, because it is a huge effort to write and maintain a good documentation, probably a lifetime job for a single person. I've said this several times before over the years, but other people have 'better' ideas, none of which seem to actually seem to produce anything. Correct, it's not moving forward. It's probably three months work for someone to build decent help from that Not anybody likes plenty of comments in the source units, and even 3 months is a long time, however we should think about that again since the Wiki seems to be dead. Also note that it is extremly difficult to write documentations in a non native language. As regards this point, I will be happy to help out with fixing the English in any ICS documentation that is done. I have previously worked with people who have written documentation in their language, then used a web translator to convert that into English. This English is funny at best and wrong at worst. But, since I have no problems with English and a computer engineer, I am often able to 'fix' this to what a native speaker would write. So, if someone does start to write in not-so-good English or in a foreign language (that is supported by a web translator), we can work it out!

Maybe you could also directly write the help text in http://wiki.overbyte.be. You can write whatever part you feel confortable with. Other people will complete. For example - do not take this as an offence but an example - you can read Delphi source code but don't know anything about ICS, then you can enter all the methods, properties and events and someone else will enter the exact description.

[twsocket] POSTing images to a server
Hi! I've just started to play with the Httpcli component and I'm hoping to create a program that will allow me to post images to a web application. The basic POST works now - I can submit data to a form. But, I can't begin to get my head around the things involved in posting images to the application. I understand that I need to post it as a multi-part form with a suitable separator for the parts, then set the correct MIME type and content type, and encode the data. Has anyone tried this? Is there some sample that I could refer to?
