similar to: File access denied when printing from a Delphi application

Hello, everybody! First of all I have to say that I'm already posted this question in another forum: http://www.delphipages.com/threads/thread.cfm?ID=206179&G=206179 but as I haven't got any response from there I thought that this would be the right place to ask what I asked there. I really hope to get your help about this because I am totally new to Linux and I don't know where

Hi, I'm using Wine 0.9.27 and Ubuntu 6.06. I've problems when printing from Delphi Apps that use QReport (the default reporting engine for most Delphi versions), and after some hacking I've perhaps isolated the trouble: it seems that Delphi printing over a Canvas works only if I show the system PrintDialog or the PrinterSetupDialog befor printing, and I press OK in this dialog:

Hello, I tried to run a program written in Delphi in wine and it ran quite perfectly, but sadly there was one important detail that made using it impossible... It seems that wine has a problem with the text inputs (edits). They are "string" datatypes (8 bit ansi string), and not null terminated. The problem was showing itself e.g. at the login form of the program. The password I

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks for all the help so far. I am learning a lot from it. I have a script that I will post bellow that when I run it gives me this error. mysql/website_forum/nntp_settings.MYD io timeout after 180 seconds - exiting rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(103) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (1493583 bytes read so far)

All I realise that this isn''t strictly the correct place to discuss the prototype lib but being as scriptaculous is dependent on it I thought people might have some opinions. Easier to explain with the example below, copy into a html file and ensure the path to prototype.js is correct. You''ll see the first example prints an extra element "extend" when iterating over

i have a parallel port dongle which i need to run a specific software. i have managed to do the following but the dongle is still recognised. i [user at localhost ~]$ ls -al ~/.wine/dosdevices total 8 drwxrwxr-x 2 user guest 4096 2009-05-29 07:43 ./ drwxrwxr-x 4 user guest 4096 2009-05-29 08:08 ../ lrwxrwxrwx 1 user guest 10 2009-05-28 14:56 c: -> ../drive_c/ lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8

I need to reliably boot a server from a USB device. Since USB device ordering can be unpredictable, I wrote a simple early-userspace "init" program to find the root FS on the correct USB device & partition. I have "labeled" the root ext2 FS on the USB drive, and the program searches for the label by examining the bytes at a specific offset from the beginning of the

Hi all, I was just looking into what was causing the lag when I open my samba (3.0.27a) shares from windows (XP, SP2). strace showed that directories were being opened and closed a lot, in sequence. Playing with Process Monitor suggests windows is trying to create alternate data streams on for the directory entires: it does a CreateFile with :{4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d} appended to

I was looking into what was causing the lag when I open my samba (3.0.27a) shares from windows (XP, SP2). I see a lot of consecutive directory opening. Process Monitor seems to suggests that windows is being stupid about alternate data streams: it tries to create directoryname:{4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d}, fails, and tries another sixty-ish times before failing and doing the same with

Hello all, is it possible to use the native Linux libraries instead of their Windows builds? This can be a newbie question. :) I have a database program based on PostgreSQL and I think that coyping the Windows libraries for the application to run is a bit luxury when the same but native libraries with the same functions already exist for Linux and they are already installed on my system. I

I wrote an application in c++ which should return the GetAsyncKeyState(0x01). But I always get 0. If I click on the window of my app,I will get the right answer. GetAsyncKeyState should return systemwide clicks! The same things happens when I write a VB application. I found an app written in Delphi which uses the GetAsyncKeyState call and returns systemwide clicks. Can someone tell me whats the

Hi Everyone, I'm wondering if anyone here write AGI's in compiled binaries. I'm writing a small Cepstral AGI in Freepascal/Lazarus. I know there are some other AGI's out there, but I wanted to add some more functionality than what is available such as having the AGI determine if the "data" argument is plain text or a path to a text file and act accordingly. The

- Ubuntu 8.10 - Wine 1.1.19 Hello, everybody! I'm using Wine 1.1.19 and my application is working pretty well with this Wine version. To update Wine on my computer I used the instructions found here for Ubuntu 8.10: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb Now I need to update Wine in other computers but if I follow the same steps the update manager will provide me always with the later Wine

Hi Samba list, I ran across this really bizarre issue and was hoping somebody would be able to shed some further light on the issue. If this is better directed to the samba technical list, please let me know and I will post there instead. Background ========= I'm using CommVault Galaxy 7.0 SP4 for backup and decided to share it's "IndexCache", which is a collection of files

Hello everyone. I am not sure if this is the right place to post, please redirect me if there is a mailinglist more specifically dealing with prototype.js. After playing around with the very inspiring prototype library I have found a rather annoying thing, that makes the usefulness of the Enumerable mixin for Hashes questionable, if I am not totally wrong (again :-). Here an example:

is it possible to run delphi apps/forms(that was build, compiled, and targeted to windows machines) on linux(fc6, suse 10.x) These delphi apps connects to MS SQL server. if it is possible, then I can easily ground all those windows xp machines, that are just use to run these delphi apps... and use linux instead Regards --------------------------------- Got a little couch potato?

Hi, I have an app with Delphi7 + MSSQL, developed during 10 years. Now, the users have asked me about some way to run this app into Linux Fedora Core 2/3. I use Fedora for apps in Java with no problems, but I never heard about Delphi run. I look at WineHQ site about this combination of Delphi + MSSQL but I didn't find. I found some thing about Delphi 7 install and slow behaviour in

Hi all, first thanks reading my letter, Im statistics student . im doing my final assignment bout application of correspondence analysis in geographical information system. i use delphi 7 for developing and R for statistical computation. I use RDCom to cennect delphi and R. there was some example in visual basic to get the vharacter output of R in in vb. but i cant get the character

In R 3.5 and later you should not need to gc() -- that should happen automatically within the connections code. Nevertheless, I would recommend redesigning your approach to avoid hanging onto open file connections as these are a scarce resource. You can keep around your temporary files without having them open and only open/close them on access, with the close run in an on.exit or a

Hello speex-dev, Like several others who develop in Delphi I have searched for the speex.dll or speex.pas file to no avail. Its a pity that this compilation is not available as many developers use Delphi, and this codec does seem to be an excellent free alternative. Do you know if anyone has been able to contact John Villar the author of the delphi example? -- Regards, Alistair+
