Running Apps on Linux with Wine (All)

(Delphi & C++Builder)

This product eventually reached its end of life after the last release of Kylix 3 on August 2002. Currently in the era of Delphi XE with Firemonkey, we can finally target more platforms than Windows. However, Linux is not yet among those targets. We now can officially see the support for Linux server in the roadmap, but no mention about the Linux desktop development so far. This session will show you that you can quite easily target Linux desktop users already now, not only with Firemonkey, but even with VCL, so from most recent Delphi XE versions all the way back to probably Delphi 3.

Debug faster. Debug smarter. (Intermediate)

(Delphi & C++Builder)

We all have to debug programs and we never like it. This session will show you few tips & tricks that will help you debug your code in a faster and smarter way. This session will show how to use few less-known debugger features (groups, thread support, data breakpoints ...) and will also present few tips and trick (how to add a log ""form"" in two lines of code, when modifying code is preferable to setting a breakpoint with condition etc).

Deep Dive: Powerful GUIs using Scalable Vector Graphics and the RiverSoftAVG SVG Component Library (Intermediate)

(Delphi)

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) are awesome in their ability to make your GUIs stand out. Not only because they are scaleable, but perhaps even more importantly, because they are editable. Unlike bitmaps, each piece of a graphic is editable. You can change colors, rotations, visibility, etc in real-time at run-time. With the RiverSoftAVG SVG Component Library (RSCL), you get access to a whole world wide web of customizable graphics for your applications. This session discusses how to use the RSCL to spice up your Delphi applications.
Thomas G. Grubb has been a professional developer for 28 years, and a developer of high-quality Delphi components since Delphi 1.0. He has developed multiple commercial component libraries for Delphi with a concentration in graphics and artificial intelligence, including the highly successful RiverSoftAVG SVG Component Library and Inspex, an object inspector component suite, which was released in partnership with Raize Software. He has developed in multiple languages including C/C++, Delphi, PHP, Python, Java, and FORTRAN. His blog is available at blogs.RiverSoftAVG.com.
