It was great fun to do the Object Pascal developer webinar this week, but I have already started to prepare for the next on deploying RAD Server services implemented into Amazon Web Services cloud! RAD Server is your turn-key solution for implementing REST APIs services with Delphi and C++Builder. In this practical, demo-oriented session we are going to see how to create RAD Server scalable, fault-tolerant and highly available deployments in the cloud. I'm going to dem...

My "RAD in Action: Build Modern Apps with Enterprise Mobility Services" webinar is happening right now. During my 50 minutes session I'm demonstrating using DataSnap framework for building multi-tier database application with FireDAC JSON Reflection framework. That's very powerful and very easy to code. During the demo I have illustrated the following best practices: InterBase „EMPLOYEE” sample database FireDAC database access components DataSnap server deployed to a web server ...

Demo 1: Secure C++Builder DataSnap "Hello World" server and mobile client This is a very simple demo that shows basic security in DataSnap, including secure communication with HTTPS protocol, encryption transport filters plus authentication and authorisation in code. Demo 2: Secure C++ Dat...

The CodeRage7 online Delphi developer conference is in full swing! There is plenty of great content and I'm looking forward to replies of some sessions as it is impossible to follow all of them!

It is prerecorded and I have promised to put the link to source code of all demos presented on my blog, whic...

It is a really long day today:-) I'm now still listening to "24 Hours of Delphi" online webinar hosted by David I and Anders Ohlsson from Developer Relations, and it is almost midnight now. Very good stuff! I have promised during my session to upload "FireMonkey End-to-End Scenarios" demos. Both demos and slides are now available for download from this link: http://cc.embarcadero.com/item/28674 Overview With FireMonkey you can create great looking HD and 3D user interfaces, but at t...

Man! That was a LOT of work to get this finished. I am especially happy with three new video episodes that I have recorded and uploaded to youtube that shows how you can: use jQueryMobile in Delphi code, add DataSnap server connectivity and generate dynamic, data-driven jQueryMobile web pages dynamically. In this Delphi Labs DataSnap tutorial I am demonstrating practical steps for building jQueryMobile web frontend application for displaying InterBase XE “Employees” database data from a stand...
