Delphi Win32.hlp Download: A Guide to Installing Help Files Manually in Delphi 10.1 Berlin



Delphi versions 1 through 8, as well as Delphi 2005, do not support HTML Help for VCL applications. Fortunately, the free UseHTMLHelp and HTMLHelpViewer units that you can download make sure that Delphi knows how to use HTML Help. The archive contains three units, each for specific Delphi versions. UseHTMLHelp supports Delphi 3, 4 and 5. HTMLHelpViewer supports Delphi 6 and 7. HTMLHelpViewer2005 supports Delphi 2005.




delphi win32.hlp download



To enable HTML Help support in applications developed with Delphi 3, 4 or 5, add the UseHTMLHelp unit to your application. In Delphi, select ProjectAdd to Project in the menu, and select the UseHTMLHelp unit you downloaded using the link above.


Delphi 6 has a totally new help architecture to enable an application to use more than one help system. Unfortunately, Borland did not make use of that architecture to support .chm help files. The HTMLHelpViewer.pas unit takes care of this. To add HTML Help support, use ProjectAdd to Project in Delphi to add the HTMLHelpViewer unit from the UseHTMLHelp download.


Unlike some other source code that is freely available on the Internet to make Delphi 6 work with HTML Help, the HTMLHelpViewer unit you can download here does not disable WinHelp. Should you use a .hlp file rather than a .chm file after all, HTMLHelpViewer will detect this and stay inactive, letting the standard WinHelpViewer do its job.


From XE8 onwards, Delphi includes a new GetIt tool that offers a catalog of third party components, and allows them to be automatically downloaded and installed. The same stable ICS versions listed above should be available from GetIt.


This is the easiest way to get the latest version. These packages are built from the version control repositories automatically when they change and are refreshed once a day. To use the latest OpenSSL version, download this snapshot. Note the snapshot includes the latest version of the OpenSSL DLLs.


OpenSSL 1.0.2 and later are only supported by ICS v8, v7 is no longer updated for new OpenSSL versions. The 64-bit DLLs are only for use with Delphi applications compiled for the 64-bit platform, the 32-bit DLLs work on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows with 32-bit applications. Note that ICS V8.24 dated 3rd March 2016 and later included the latest OpenSSL 1.0.2 Win32 files to avoid a separate download. This was a long term support version for which free support ceased at the end of 2019, but paid support from OpenSSL continues for those needing it. ICS V8.65 is the last version to support 1.0.2.


The browser demo is in the ICS nightly zip, in the folder samples\delphi\browserdemo, the project is FrameBrowserIcs.dpr. An executable version of the new demo may also be downloaded from here, built with HtmlViewer 11.8 and ICS V8.69, using Delphi 11.0.


The HtmlViewer component must be downloaded and installed before the demo can be built. The demo is based on FrameBrowserIndy project but with various enhancements, specifically display of all HTTP, SSL and some or all HTML traffic which makes it very useful for debugging the THttpCli component. Recent versions of HtmlViewer also include FrameBrowserIcs.dpr but it has been changed substantially from the ICS version and I've been unable to build it.


Delphi 2007 for Win32 (Spacely) was released on March 16, 2007. It was the second Delphi release by CodeGear. Furthermore, it was the first version of Delphi since version 7 that allowed compilation of native 32-Bit Windows Applications only. New features included support for MSBuild and enhancements to the Visual Component Library for Windows Vista. Furthermore, CodeGear introduced DBX4 as the next version of dbExpress. For the first time, one could download Delphi online from the internet and activate it using a license key. International customers were immediately served by releasing the product not only in English on this day, but also in French, German and Japanese. Delphi 2007 drops official support for Windows 98, but compiled projects will still run on it. The build number for Delphi 2007 release is 11.0.2627.5503.


Update 3 fixes several Delphi problems as well as several C++ problems, including improvements to the documentation. The update can be applied to both Delphi and C++Builder 2007. Similar to update 1, the update will uninstall your old IDE version and reinstall the new version (which can be quite slow), though your settings and components should survive the upgrade process, since the IDE registry entries are not cleared. The recommended way to upgrade is using the "Check For Updates" start menu item, but you can also download the full update using the link below. Also, you can use that download for installing Delphi from scratch, it's a full installer that contains everything. The build number for Delphi 2007 Update 3 is 11.0.2804.9245.


This article is for those who did not find, any useful code examples and information regarding ListControl (ListView). For me, it was really hard to get a working code for Win32 API, since I don't code in MFC. The only help I was able to get was win32.hlp which contains every API by Microsoft. Note that it did not have any examples in it. Also searching through forums can be helpful, but it is slow and sometimes you really wanna get some stuff going fast and clear. I decided to write this article for the coders who don't know any MFC (class) or just starting with ListControl via APIs. First, I must say that all examples I've seen so far lacked information for mon-MFC coders!. If you can't code or can't understand MFC, and are using the API, then this little article is for you.


On August 8, 2006, Developer Tools Group of Borland Software Corporation announced plans to release single language versions of Borland Developer Studio, which includes Turbo Delphi for Win32, Turbo Delphi for .NET, Turbo C++, Turbo C#. The Turbo Explorer versions are free downloadable version, and Turbo Professional versions are priced less than $500.[1] On September 5, 2006, Developer Tools Group of Borland Software Corporation announced the initial releases of the Turbo products.[2]


In October 2009, Embarcadero discontinued support of Turbo Delphi, along with the other Turbo products including Turbo C++ Builder. The product is no longer available for download,[6] and it is not possible to receive a registration key from Embarcadero, which was required to use the product. The latest release of Turbo Delphi was 2006, and it was based upon Embarcadero's product Delphi 2006.


These are ready made packages, together with an install program, to get you up and running in no time. All packages contain a README file, which you should read for installation instructions and latest news. The latest release is 3.2.2. Because of a lack of release builders and testers, 3.2.2 is only available for a limited number of platforms and not in all package formats. If you want to change this and build and test future releases, contact us via the mailing lists.Binaries You can download the 3.2.2 release for the following cpu and operating systems: ARM Linux Android Windows CE Game Boy Advance Nintendo DS AROS ARM64 (aarch64) Linux Android macOS Intel x86/i386 Windows 32-bit (and a cross-compiler ARM/MIPS/i386-Android) Linux Mac OS X/OS X/macOS (and cross-compilers for ARM64, PowerPC(64), iOS & iPhoneSimulator, JVM/Java and JVM/Android). FreeBSD Solaris OS/2 (and eComStation) DOS (GO32v2 extender) Haiku AROS AMD64/Intel 64/x86_64 Windows 64-bit Linux Mac OS X/OS X/macOS (and cross-compilers for PowerPC(64)/Mac OS X, iOS & iPhoneSimulator, JVM/Java and JVM/Android).

Documentation The documentation can be downloaded in several formats from one of our download sites.


Once downloaded, Windows Installer (msiexec.exe) will proceed to install an MSIL or Delphi binary to the system. Depending on the MSI package downloaded, it may contain either a heavily obfuscated Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL) or Delphi binary file, which then acts as a loader for the actual payload.


Why does it use a new installation method? Security software has become proficient at monitoring possible downloader processes such as Wscript, Powershell, Mshta.exe, Winword.exe, and other similar executables that have become increasingly popular methods of installing malicious payload. Due to their widespread use, it became easy to stop the arrival of threats via these software. However, the use of msiexec.exe to download a malicious MSI package is not something we typically see in most malware.


UPX is an advanced executable file compressor. UPX will typically reduce the file size of programs and DLLs by around 50%-70%, thus reducing disk space, network load times, download times and other distribution and storage costs.


Note on 32-bit versus 64-bit versions: You only need the 64-bit version of the SAP Java Connector if you are using a 64-bit Java VM. If you have to use a 32-bit Java VM on a 64-bit platform, download and use the 32-bit version of JCo. The 64-bit variant should always be preferred on 64-bit platforms.Some JVMs offer both modes: 32-bit as well as 64-bit. In this case you need to start the JVM with an additional start-up parameter to specify the mode. Usually these are options -d32 and -d64; please consult the JVM documentation for further details. 2ff7e9595c
