Hello,

I have Delphi2006 on WinXP pro.

Has anyone installed the newest version of Indy 10 (ver. 10.1.5)?

Is it worth the trouble? Are the improvements considerabe?


Regards,
Martin

can't really tell, but you can try and download the nightly dev
snapshot.

If you have problems installing it then search for a post on this
matter in this same newsgroup.

The newest version/revision is 10.1.6.

On the positive side:

Somewhere between 10.1.5 and 10.1.6, Indy gained the ability to use the
standard OpenSSL files. I think this is considerable (and should have been a
major revision bump).

And, there are a few honest-to-goodness bug fixes. A few.

Some new hash classes were added.


On the negative side:

For some reason, the existing TIdHash classes got tossed and rewritten.
There have been reports that the results are not entirely accurate. I don't
know if that's still true today.

Someone really likes to reformat the source code - which is all well and
good unless you're trying to keep up with diffs between the un-numbered
revisions.


Overall, I'd say it's a toss up. But face it... you're going to be told to
update to the latest snapshot if you run into any real issues. I tried it
out and I'm currently using 10.1.6... but I use a limited number of the
components.

If you have existing code that requires Indy 10, I'd test it thoroughly
before committing to the update. As always, be prepared to tweak/rewrite
existing code when interfaces change -- even between minor revision number
updates.

10.1.5 is not the latest version. The current version is 10.1.6.

Is this the version that is shipped with Delphi 2007?

Any idea how to check what version exactly is installed?

Delphi 2007 shipped with version 10.1.5.

It's the same as it's always been:

Check the contents of the file System\IdVers.inc, or
look in the context menu for any Indy component dropped
on the design surface of the IDE.

Thanks. I did not know that (never had to pay attention to exactly what
version I was using - as it always worked as expected).
