Few different problems

Post by Lukasz » Tue Jun 28, 2022 3:45 pm

HI, sorry about one post for few topics but i want to only report problem.

1. After install version 2022.35 all hints/windows in Delphi show that this version is 2022.34.

2. Recompile - it detect 4 IDE's. If i check IDE version to recompile, then uncheck it, expand IDE compilers i cannot select first compiler. Example below. I cannot check Win32. I've check whole IDE, uncheck it and second time i can select Win32 for Delphi Sydney.

3. After installation but before compilation VCL there are 2 language files - in my example for Polish: TeePolish.pas and VCLTee.TeePolish.pas (maybe also FMX one). First is ANSI encoding, second one UTF-16LE. The UTF-16LE version is broken about translations. It produce this:

After every update i have to copy content from TeePolish (ANSI) to VCLTee.TeePolish (UTF-16LE) and change conding of file to ANSI or convert external for UTF-16LE. After this i get proper text:

Can it be repair? I've searched forum but i don't find that anyone else had this problem.
Can someone from Poland confirm that Polish translation after installation is broken?

That was by a human mistake in the v2022.35 release. I believe it only affects the source code version, not the binary version.
It shouldn't happen in the next release.

This should be fixed in the next release.

I can reproduce the problem but I'm not able to fix it following your instructions.
I've install fresh copy of Delphi 11.2 and tryed to resolve this problem.
After installation Steema VCL i found 7! language files for Polish language but they are the same. These files are:
  • FMXTee.Language.Polish.pas - (..\Source\FMX\)
  • FMXTee.Language.Polish.pas - (..\Source\UnicodeLangs\FMX\)
  • FMXTee_Language_Polish.pas - (..\Source\UnicodeLangs\FMI\) - what is FMI? is there a mistake
  • VCLTee.TeePolish.pas - (..\Source\VCL\)
  • VCLTee.TeePolish.pas - (..\Source\UnicodeLangs\VCL\)
  • TeePolish.pas - (..\Source\)
  • TeePolish.pas - (..\Source\UnicodeLangs\VCL\)
Some of the files are encoded in ANSI and some in UTF-16 LE BOM. File VCLTee.TeePolish.pas located in "..\Source\VCL\" have good translation (encoded in UTF-16 LE BOM). I've opened that file in Notepad++ and copy/paste it's content to the VCLTee.TeePolish.pas located in "..\Source\UnicodeLangs\VCL\" (also encoded in UTF-16 LE BOM but with errors in encoding). After recompile TeeChart i got proper translation in VCL in Delphi. I think the same should be done for FMX.

The question is why there are so many same language files? Cannot just one be used globally for all platforms?
The files differ only in name and theoretically in the directives used, but these directives do not change anything in the file - I checked the references to other units.
Isn't it better to simplify these translations and leave only one language file for each language?

By the way, do you know when to expect the new edition? I am interested in the solution to the problem from topic:

EDIT:
In 2022.36.220929 translations are good. The problem doesn't exists.

Hello,

This all happens because TeeChart supports both old and newer IDEs. Some of them include full unicode support and some not. Some include prefixes and both VCL and FMX, and some are just VCL without prefixes.

We maintain a single version of every file and we generate the "unicode" and prefixed versions for newer IDEs when creating the installers so they are included in the "UnicodeLangs" folder.
So, when you install the source version, there's the main version of the language file at the "Source" folder (to be used when compiling for old IDEs) and the "unicode" and prefixed versions at the "UnicodeLangs" folder.
Then, when you run TeeRecompile for newer IDEs, the "Source\VCL" and "Source\FMX" folders are created and populated with the according files and compiles them.

BTW, "FMI" was the prefix for iOS Simulator platform in RAD XE2.
