Delphi 2007 and disappearing ComboBox Items |
Mon, Apr 30 2007 3:10 PM | Permanent Link |
Dave M | Has anyone run into a Delphi 2007 problem with ComboBox items just disappearing, as in
lost for good? This happens sporadically. From reading some BDN newsgroups I am not the only one. Be warned. It's a real time waster. Dave M |

But this is in a different realm of seriousness to most since (a) you lose your work; and (b) if you're not careful to watch for it a form will have lost its combo box items without you realising it. As a short term fix I've changed my code so as to build all the combo strings in code, but, as you say, a big waste of time. I would have expected CodeGear to have highlighted this as a major issue and confirmed that a fix was being worked on urgently. -- Tony Bryer SDA UK www.sda.co.uk |

I really don't think the person reporting the error "got through." If BDS 2006 weren't *so slow* using the embedded designer, I would have reverted. I keep running into more places to fix the code as I find more items gone. Don't know the steps in how to produce it either. Every combobox (items) on every form I have used so far, with or without visual inheritance goes bye bye. It's just a matter of when. I also have regular issues with D2007 taking a vacation. No cpu use, just a 10 - 20 second wait when doing compile and run. Virus scanner is off. Dave M |

Overall I am very pleased with D2007 and (throwing caution to the wind) have switched everything over to it: usually I migrate my in-house apps first and then only move the development code for the apps we sell many months later. This time, having a lot of faith in Nick and the new CodeGear team I haven't waited. Which is why it suddenly came as a shock to find suddenly find combobox items had gone back ... and I think that it is something to do with viewing and editing forms as text, which I do for a quick fix. But of course when I tried to make the problem happen I couldn't! -- Tony Bryer SDA UK www.sda.co.uk |
