    The new trials are available for download from site.

    The registered users can download the same reg.link and logon which they used
    before.

  • Delphi tips

    I changed the online web pages for Delphi tips.

    Now there is the category treelist in left pane, pages for categories and minor changes in visual design (h1-tags, standard fonts etc)

    So the Delphi Tips generator rewritten to support these features in macros. Now I must add the tips for .NET and Java and generator will create the web pages from database automatically.

  • Yandex Money

    This page is available from standard order page

  • one class per file

    When you need declare a lot of small classes (enums, for example), I do not like the idea to declare the one class per file only. I do not want to have a lot of small files. I prefer to declare some kind of common file with basic classes but not possible in Java

  • SizeOf

    Java again. The class instance have no SizeOf method and/or no good method to get the size of instance in bytes:-(
