In that posting I want to write a little bit about my experience with the new Delphi and the Firemonkey Framework. I am using Delphi for over 10 years now, mostly in my own small business. The two main applications are over 10 years old now, the code base is very outdated. To be frank, …
Ich hatte schon eine Weile mal vor, mir einen VPN-Server auf dem Raspberry Pi einzurichten. Zum einen will ich von unterwegs in irgendwelchen WLANs nicht unverschlüsselt kommunizieren und zum Anderen wird bei mobilen Internettarifen gern der ein oder andere Dienst blockiert. So funktioniert bei Congstar kein VOIP mit Skype. Richtet man hingegen ein VPN ein, …
The last days I was busy signing my Delphi applications on my Mac. One version was signed with my Developer ID, the other one with the third party developer ID for the Mac App Store. Maybe its all very easy if you use XCode for that, but I had my issues with Delphi, where I …
Some days ago I wrote a blog post about signing a Firemonkey application manually with the developer ID. For app store applications Delphi automatically runs the code signing procedure for you and creates a PKG file. Handy! Since Apples new Mavericks release the code signing has changed a little bit and the command now needs …
Nachdem der Roomba (580) seit seiner letzten Reparatur problemlos lief, hat sich letzte Woche ein Kopfhörerkabel in der Seitenbürste verfangen. Dies hatte dann vermutlich den Motor überlastet, so dass dieser nur noch sporadisch lief. Na toll. Gute Nachricht, es gibt die passenden Ersatzteile im Internet zu bestellen (einfach nach Seitenbürstenmodul googlen) und diese sind sehr …

Otherwise your users will end up with some message like: OK its german, but it means: I don’t know that developer and I will not start that application. So …
Introduction In this document I want to describe some ideas how branding of an Eclipse RCP application can be implemenented. Since I never done this before, there might be better ways to do that, so feel free to contact me. Its not a walk through how to do these things step by step, its more …
I usually create my project first, tinker around and then at some point I want to use version control, like GIT. So I create the repository and want to check it out and merge it with my existing project folder. This can be done with the following commands: git init git remote add origin PATH_TO_REPOSITORY …
I used PHP a lot in the past for our websites. I think its not the best programming language, but its simple enough to get things done very quickly. And it runs on the most servers of web hosters. Today most likely I would choose another language, but I still have to maintain and debug …
Recently I tried to push a bigger repository to Github. At some stage of the upload process failed: fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly Everything up-to-date Some research on the internet indicated that the https buffer was not big enough. The simplest fix to that was to increase the buffer size: git config http.postBuffer …
