TDUG Meeting Wed, Nov 27th – Fractals!

Fractals!

Speaker: Bruce McGee

I admit, it’s a pretty broad topic. Since fractals stopped being exclusively the domain of mathematicians and entered into popular culture, people have waxed poetic about how they mirror the chaotic nature the universe and might have implications in string theory and spiritual enlightenment and so on…

We’re not going to get too philosophical, but we will talk about some common fractals and why they’re interesting and demonstrate how to recreate them using Delphi and FireMonkey. We’re going to make pretty pictures!

Warning: There will be some math (maths?). Nothing too intimidating, though. Honestly, if I can understand it, then how hard can it be?

TDUG Meeting – Wed, Oct 30th – Using Materials in FireMonkey 3D

Using Materials in FireMonkey 3D

Speaker: Bruce McGee

This is a follow-up to our Introduction to FireMonlkey 3D meeting in June where we talked about how to create and manipulate 3D objects.

This month we’ll dig a little deeper into the internals of 3D objects and how to use materials/textures to add colour, shadows and images. FireMonkey does a lot of the heavy lifting for us, but you can do some interesting things with a little understanding of how things work under the hood.

TDUG Meeting – Wed, Sept 25th – Variations on the Game of Life

Variations on the Game of Life

Speaker: Bruce McGee

I’d be surprised if anyone hasn’t at least heard about The game of Life; A simulation that began as a thought experiment in 1940 and was made popular by John Conway in 1970.

But what does it all mean?

I don’t know how philosophical we’ll get, but we will look at the theory behind cellular automata and how it changed the way we think about simulating complex systems using simlpe rules. Then we’ll look at our own implementations of Wolfram’s elementary cellular automata and Conway’s Game of Life using Delphi and FireMonkey.

TDUG Meeting – Wed, June 26th – Introduction to FireMonkey 3D

Introduction to FireMonkey 3D

Speaker: Bruce McGee

FireMonkey is Embarcadero’s cross-platform UI framework. On top of the regular UI elements you would expect, it also includes some interesting hardware accelerated graphics features, and built-in 3D functionality.

We will demonstrate how to create 3D applications, combine 2D and 3D elements in the UI and how to create and use 3D objects.

TDUG Meeting – Thu, May 30th – Use SSL to make your Delphi applications secure. For free.

Use SSL to make your Delphi applications secure. For free.

Speaker: Bruce McGee

Delphi is so well known for building desktop applications and for its database functionality that it might be easy to overlook its long history of server and multi-tier support. Everything from simple networking components to MIDAS/DataSnap to web applications to XML web services to RAD Server and more.

But now, with all of this network traffic, security becomes an issue. How do you keep your sensitive information safe from prying eyes? Unfortunately, proper security can be difficult, time consuming and expensive

But it doesn’t have to be.

We’ll use the Delphi Community Edition to create some server applications and other free tools like OpenSSL and Let’s Encrypt to let us talk to them securely.

TDUG meeting Thursday, April 25th

Speaker: Bruce McGee

A little bit of this, a little bit of that…

We will be covering a lot of little things this month. Additions and improvements to Delphi, hints and tips, frequently asked questions, etc. Topics include:

  • New string-like syntax for arrays
  • Generic collections
  • Where to put units in your uses clauses and why
  • Tips for converting to Unicode
  • A little bit of Firemonkey 3D
  • and more…

If you have anything you’d like to ask, please let me know. We’ll add it to the list.
