The "Sender: TObjec));" bug is now fixed.
Changlog:
=======
- Replaced buggy FastCode_IntToStr function
- Removed buggy FastCode_IntToStr64 function
- Disabled buggy FastCodeStrCopyPMD function, uses FastCodeStrCopyBlended
instead (caused 'Sender: TObjec));' bug)
- Disabled special Delphi 2005/BDS 2006 optimization for Delphi 5, 6 and 7.
- Added new registry switches.
- Installer allows to change the DelphiSpeedUp registry switches.
- Registry switches are now Delphi version specific (new subkey)

Thanks for the DSU updates. You've done an interesting shake out on a
number of FastCode bugs that made it past their validation procedures.
I've started visiting b.p.d.l.basm and noticed that there are still a
lot of changes to Fastcode. I was led to understand that some fastcode
routines are part of the native RTL in D2K6, and I'm wondering how many
of these buggy routines made it in.
Can anyone comment on that? I am still considering D2K6 for purchase,
but if buggy FastCode routines are part of the RTL, I'm not sure it's
worth the speed increase they provide.
Does anyone know which fastcode routines are part of the RTL if any
(did I misunderstand, are there no fastcode routines in the rtl?), and
have any of them been found to be incorrect since release? |

With v1.7, (if you've got ReportBuilder) right click on a tppReport and
click on the 'Report Designer...' popup-menu item. Bang! Don't you hate
that :)
Now, there's no such problems for me with v1.65. Even if I can't use any
version beyond v1.65, I'll still be happy. Thanks for a fantastic bit of
code.

The bugs I found do not happen with the already included FastCode
function. The BDS IDE is the best example that the functions work. So they
do not suffer from the bugs I found which lets the IDE fail on places
where it works with the already included FastCode functions.
To say it clear: Non of the bugs I found in the FastCode functions affect
BDS (without replacing the RTL).

I don't understand why, but the SDAC ADO migration wizard doesn't work
unless I uninstall DelphiSpeedup.

Borland did their own QA above and beyond the Fastcode QA.

Andreas,
Might be just my machine but Speedup breaks the default help system. With Speedup installed I get no TOC and only .Net as a filter [that doesn't work] in Search. Removing Speedup returns all to normal.

It has some of Fastcode in it, and Borland QA'ed it. I'm not sure that
qualifies as bug free, but no, you don't need it.
