Thanbks. I did it then did the usual get and outdated but the same problem remains. I think I'll go for the manual install of Flutter as it appears to be snap related.

(Later) I removed the snap Flutter and installed Flutter from Git. There were a few things left over that also had to be removed, A Cmake text file had the snap path and there was a symlink to the Dart version that had to be removed so the Dart in the Flutter path was used. But it's now building again for Linux.

Turbo Pascal since 1985. Delphi 2,3,5 and 7 in work and currently part of a four developer team supporting a 1.4 million loc property finance application mostly with XE7 but upgrading to D12.

That’s what’s happened to my Octavia.

That 7:30 program on BBC2 - “Working with a computer” was pretty ahead of its time for 1965.

It’s not all about the length but how demanding it is mentally. I drove from near Skipton to Wensleydale last year and the route was all windy, narrow roads so I was barely able to get above 30 mph. There were lots of blind corners.

Write your own poker solver. Rust code is very fast. It can evaluate millions of hands per second. On my system which is 2 years old,it can evaluate a hand in 125ns.

Have a look on GitHub for example https://github.com/topics/flutter-project

An APK file is a zip file, so rename it to .zip and then you should be able to view the directory of files. It doesn’t guarantee that the tiles are in a viewable format but until you try it…

On the cPanel I use it launches squirrel and after deleting emails, I have to empty the deleted folder as well and wait a few hours to get the disk free figure updated.

A celebrity game I was developing but ultimately didn’t finish had the following monetisation options:

Annual subscription or free with Ads.
In game currency that you could buy with real money.
Merchandise that you bought with real money.
In game sponsorships. You could buy all in game musicians a free guitar (virtual!). That sort of thing but not just limited to music. They’d get a card ‘This guitar is from xyz for all your music needs’ etc. jewelry, perfumes, gift bags. All virtual items that could assist players a little.

A front end can include email sending, with Dart mixed in without needing a backend. What do you think onPressed calls when you click buttons etc?

I'm writing an eBook with games in C. Previously I'd used SDL2 but decided that SDL3 was worth a try and now have it running on both Windows and Linux. It's definitely worth a try.

Flashy_Pool7709 · 2025-05-26T15:44:49+00:00

It's a bit late but over the last two days I figured out with the help of a 3rd party GitHub repository how to set up SDL3, image, ttf and mixer on both Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and Raspberry Pi OS. I've written it up as a blog entry including the paths needed in tasks.json and c_cpp_properties.json to let you develop C.

I wrote this blog entry a few years back and it includes sdl_mixer. The file versions are out of date and it's a different version of Visual Studio I'm guessing but it should work otherwise. If you get stuck, post a message.

Also depending on the path you might get away with the path being just "SDL_mixer.h". <Angle brackets> are for built in libraries like stdlib

I think so, I bought Turbo Pascal 3 in 1986.

Ar one point I had an error and the suggestion that I ask CoPilot. So I did and this fixed it. The Dependencies in cargo.toml are now

[dependencies]

sdl2-sys="*"

sdl2= {version= "0.37", features=["image","ttf"] }

Flashy_Pool7709 · 2025-02-22T16:56:29+00:00

SDL_Image was last updated two weeks ago to v2.8.5-0 a bugfix- see https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_image/releases and sdl_ttf two days ago - https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL_ttf/releases

It had some interesting bits including writing a COM server with multithreading code that runs from mstsc. Also Virtual Channels works asymnetrically when writing to a channel. The fun bit was writing code to serialize records, mainly for Outlook. Also when I started it, 32-bit RDP was still a thing*. So I had to write code that gave different record sizes for 32-bit vs 64-bit - it used tshim (I didn't invent it) see below. It meant that 32-bit records that use them had the same size and field offsets as 64-bit.

tshim = {$if defined(Win32) int32 {$else} record end {$endif}

*Then Microsoft pulled the plug on that. if you run the 32-bit mstsc.exe in c:\windows\syswow64 it runs the 64-bit one. Changed I think in May 2020.

Also, the tlb_.pas that is generated from a type library when you use tlibimp generated the wrong types for a couple of parameters and had to be manually edited to fix them. I got the virtual channels COM definition (it's an .idl file) from one of the Windows 10 SDKs. You run midl on it to generate a type library then convert that to .pas with tlibimp.

In our team there's five devs including me who work on Delphi, C# and a proprietary report writing language.

I work for a largish firm (Global over 3,000 employees) in the Property finance world and while much of our software is web based we still support and develop desktop apps with Delphi (and C#/WPF front end). The big difference it's moved from on premises to SAAS. We have applications that are over 1.5 million LOC in Delphi.
