Delphi’s Log View got a performance boost

When you debug an application that outputs a lot of messages to the Log View, the IDE becomes unresponsive and has painting issues. In the following video I show you how responsive the IDE could be with the upcoming IDE Fix Pack.

    ya, this one bites me in the butt from time to time – it definitely makes this kind of debugging difficult at best when you deal with large data volumes.

    Cool, I’m looking forward to the upcoming IDE Fix Pack.

    Every Delphi user should install this..

    Great ! Can verbosity be removed? ie, when logging variables the debugger emits a message at each breakpoint (see below). I’d like an option to remove the “Source Breakpoint at…” messages and simply get the expression values.

    Ah ! Also the event log items can be multiselected but not copied to clipboard. Only the full contents can be saved to text file.

    regards !

    Oops, sorry, forget previous message, I found the Event Log option to disable “Breakpoint messages”. It works, removes the verbosity.

    I would be grate if we can modify the Event log window to allow filter to the output logs… or highlight selected keywords from the displayed logs???
