IDE Fix Pack XE8 preview – Castalia’s slow initialization

By | April 11, 2015

A short screen capture video of XE8’s splash screen. It shows how fast the Castalia IDE plugin starts if the upcoming IDE Fix Pack for XE8 is installed.

    Du willst doch nicht ernsthaft, dass ich jetzt die Virenschleuder Flashplayer wieder installiere?

      Das Plugin ist schon ziemlich alt. Aber das Video habe ich auch noch als mp4 herumliegen. Da muss ich mal nach einem moderneren WordPress Plugin schauen.

    Great work – as usual 🙂

    What was it you changed / fixed in Castalia/the IDE to speed it up so much?

    Hello Andy, I reported an issue via G+:

    I got the error message whenever I started the XE7 with IDEFixPack V5.8 in Win10 Technical Preview (Parallels Desktop 10 for MAC): “Not all IDE Fix Pack patches were applied. Failed patches:
    failed : Faster IDE startup [IDE.Startup.Fast]”

    Is there anything that I can do? Thank you very much!

      Windows 10 isn’t supported yet. At the moment you can set the global environment variable “IDEFixPack.DisabledPatches” to “IDE.Startup.Fast”
