GExperts Donations: Help and Manual 5 and FinalBuilder 6
Monday, 08 December 2008 03:06

A big thanks goes to EC Software for their donation of Help and Manual 5 that we use to generate our documentation.  We use Help and Manual because it is powerful, reliable, and can generate several output formats (html, chm, pdf, Word, exe, etc.) from a single source.

 

We also need to thank VSoft Technologies for the donation of their FinalBuilder 6 automated build tool.  GExperts has to be compled for 8 different IDEs, and without FinalBuilder, our build and release process would a huge task.  FinalBuilder makes the process fast, completely reliable, and (almost) fun.

 

Daniel Maltarollo and I have been working on a tool that allows GExperts to intelligently set the FocusControl property for all of a form's labels at once.  I appreciate his help building that tool.

A version of GExperts 1.33 for Delphi and RAD Studio 2010 is now available for download.
 
GExperts 1.33 Released
Sunday, 31 May 2009 00:00
GExperts 1.33 is now available for download for Delphi 6 - RAD Studio 2009.  This release includes a few minor fixes and features since 1.33 beta 2 including the ability to change the font used in all of the GExperts forms, grep searching within the list of previously matched files, to do list support for categories/owners/completed items, and support for C#/XML in the code librarian.  Full details are included in the Readme.txt file.
 
GExperts 1.33 Beta 2 Released
Thursday, 30 October 2008 00:00
GExperts 1.33 Beta 2 is now available for Delphi 6 - Delphi 2009. This is a stable beta release that we feel safe recommending to any GExperts users. There is a new tool that allows you to temporarily hide non-visual components on forms, in addition to the previously-announced features such as a more powerful regular expression syntax, unicode grep search/replace support, etc. Note that there are a few areas where the unicode support is not complete (class browser, procedure list, to do list, etc.), but this should not prevent basic usage of those tools. See the Readme.txt for a full list of changes and notes on this release. We welcome your comments or bug reports using the feedback wizard in the about box.
 
GExperts 1.33 Beta 1 Supporting Delphi 2009
Tuesday, 30 September 2008 00:00
GExperts 1.33 Beta 1 is available with support for Delphi 2009.  This is a beta release intended mainly for people willing to test Delphi 2009 and unicode support, which is not yet complete.  Some areas such as the Code Librarian, Favorite Files, Source Export, Component Grid, Tab Order, and the other tools that are not text-centric should have fairly complete unicode support.  There are still some problems with the grep search when jumping to matches in unicode files, the grep replace feature, and source code parser that lack full unicode support (this affects the procedure list, class browser, etc.).  The Readme.txt is available and lists the other changes, including a more powerful regular expression syntax.  Please report any bugs using the bug reporting wizard in the about box.  If you are interested in helping our team to help complete the Delphi 2009 support, please join our development mailing list.
 
GExperts 1.32 with RAD Studio 2007 Support
Tuesday, 11 September 2007 00:00
GExperts 1.32 has been released with new support for RAD Studio 2007. This release also contains some other minor changes and bugfixes. See the Readme.txt file for full details. If you are instaling under Windows Vista, you should install as an administrator. You can then register the GExperts plugin DLL for any non-administrative user using the GExperts Expert Manager in the start menu. Vista users should also make sure you have configured GExperts to store its data files in a directory you have write access to, such as C:\Users\{UserName}\AppData\Roaming\GExperts\Delphi 2007 (the default for new installations). To change this location, navigate in the IDE to GExperts, Configuration, File Locations.
