Just FYI for everyone, we are scheduling a session in a better timezone for many of us. Hopefully I’ll have details confirmed in the next 24 hours or so.
Cheers

I will be in Germany on the 10th September 2025.
But thanks for organising this, Malcolm.
Sorry, took a bit longer than anticipated, but here we go: Webinar: What's Coming in RAD Studio 13 - Code Partners
I’ve just started watching the replay of the USA webinar and after the first few minutes I’ve seen a couple of nice new language features I’ll be keen to start using straight away.
The ternary operator we already knew about and I’ll probably use it eventually but right away I know I’ll be using… (taken straight from the presentation slides)
if Obj is not TFoo then ...
if x not in [Apple, Orange] then ...
Not a game changer but a nice incremental improvement for the language that is long overdue.
More interesting is an intrinsic NameOf()
function which is described as “Get a string representation of identifiers in code”. I’m eager to start exploring the possibilities that will open up, particularly in the framework development space.
There are 3 additional constraints for generic types
- interface
- unmanaged
- nonnull
I haven’t watched long enough to know what they do yet but any extension of generics capabilities is greatly welcome.
There’s another 3 or 4 language changes that I’m not as interested in but maybe they’ll be just the feature you’ve been waiting for. The Australian friendly webinar is in just a few hours if you haven’t already registered for it.
I dont seem to have received a confirmation email for the 11am session, so what is the link for joining
Me neither
Same here. No link.
You could watch this.
Not in spam folder? HEre’s the link https://www.youtube.com/live/11zTrIa6jGM
Bet me by a minute. It wasn’t it the spam folder. I did receive one for the the one at 1AM, but not one for now.
hmmm, let me check it out.
Ah, ok. The common thing I can see between a few of you is you are marked as Do Not Contact in our marketing system. Perhaps at some point we annoyed you with too many emails and you unsubscribed. sorry
Let me know if you want me to un-unsubscribe you
I would consider that notification an exception to the default marketing settings, since we registered and expected a notification for it.
I would too, but marketing are risk-averse I’ll check out if we can change that
Surely someone at Emb has an on-demand holographic AI plug-in for Malcolm to leverage for his presentation…?
What, IRL Malcolm too handsome?
Anyone else here using a “Network Named License” and if so do you have Delphi 13 listed in the “Manage Catalog” section of your ELC server?

I wrote that reply. In case anyone is wondering.
FMXLinux is now maintained as part of our build process and has in-house developers who work on it going forwards.
