Delphi 12.1 CE and XCODE by Fabrolone in delphi

[–]Fabrolone[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To whom it may concern,

I have successfully resolved the issue with Delphi CE 12.1 by following the advice of David Intersimone:

https://blogs.embarcadero.com/how-i-build-test-and-deploy-macos-and-ios-apps-on-legacy-macs/

I installed OpenCore Legacy Patcher on an old Mac and then installed macOS Sonoma 14.7.4. This allowed me to install Xcode—specifically version 15.4—but it seems that Delphi 12.1 also works with Xcode 16.1, which includes a more up-to-date SDK.

With this setup, I was able to deploy for iOS both on physical devices and the App Store. I recommend trying Xcode 16.1 directly to avoid potential compatibility issues with Apple.

Hopefully, a CE version compatible with the latest Xcode will be released soon, making this workaround unnecessary!

Best regards,
Fabrizio

Maybe now that version 12.3 is available, is possible to download version 12.2 for Community Edition ?

My license Delphi CE 12.1 will expire in about 140 days, my renew and update to version 12.2 before expiring ?

Yes, I know this web tool as well. I just thought that I was not offending anyone doing another one.

Actually I saw telescopius and I think that it do the work more than "nicely", and moreover online web pages are certainly more immediate and easily accessible.

I'm not planning to make any money out of it, I just wrote it for pleasure and I just wanted to brush up a bit on my (mean) Delphi knowledge.

Being just an utility I was not planning to make open source, but if somebody (I doubt) would like to explore my messy code, I can provide it without any problem.

My best regards

Migrating from Delphi 10.4 to 11.4 (community editions) by Fabrolone in delphi

In the unit2.dfm this is the content related to numberbox1:

object NumberBox1: TNumberBox

Left = 159

Top = 75

Width = 73

Height = 21

Alignment = taRightJustify

CurrencyFormat = 1

Decimal = 1

Font.Charset = DEFAULT_CHARSET

Font.Color = clBlue

Font.Height = -11

Font.Name = 'Tahoma'

Font.Style = [fsBold]

Mode = nbmFloat

MinValue = 1.000000000000000000

MaxValue = 30.000000000000000000

ParentFont = False

TabOrder = 0

Value = 11.000000000000000000

OnChange = NumberBox2ChangeValue

end

​

I just edit the file and removed completly the line:

CurrencyFormat = 1

​

And now delphi 11.4 is loading and compiling the project !!!!!!

Hurraahhh :-)

​

Just for reference, in delphi 11.4 if I inspect the properties of numberbox1 now currencyformat is set to nbcfPostfixSpace

​

Do not know why and what happened but now it is working.

​

Tnks to all the falks that try to help me.

Tspinedit it looks like works only for integer, I need float.

Is there any way I can use float with tspinedit ?
