C++Builder Developer's Journal

Using Repaint() should have worked. That being said, your loop probably should be in a separate worker thread instead, not in the main UI thread. Then that worker thread can post updates to the UI as needed, and let the main UI thread handle painting updates normally.

I have tried the coding sample which is described in the titled "ZLibCompressDecompress (C++)" in help as follows. But I faced compile errors. Such as? Which errors exactly, on which lines? Then I tried several times with modifying some of the above list because I noticed the parameter "zcDefault" ...

I asked this question on Stack Overflow and got no responses Link? I don't recall seeing a question like this. The following code worked perfectly in Borland C++ Ver 5, on an old App for about 15 years, but since recompiling the App in C++ Rad Studio (Embarcadero), it has absolutely no effect in in...

What do you think if I remove TThread.ForceQueue from DoMeta() and put in MetaSync? That would cause the entire DoMeta() to execute at some indeterminate future time after MetaSync() has exited. I would suggest calling BASS_ChannelGetTags() directly in the context of MetaSync() so it gets called as...

// can't ref .O on earlier phones, must hardcode if TJBuild_VERSION.JavaClass.SDK_INT > 26 then // JBuild_VERSION_CODES.JavaClass.O begin {$ifdef VER330} Since that 'begin' follows a comment, it should be on the next line: // can't ref .O on earlier phones, must hardcode if TJBuild_VERSION.JavaClas...

BASS_ChannelGetTags() returns 8bit data. You need to convert that to Unicode before you process it. See my reply to your other post on that issue.

BASS_ChannelGetTags() returns a null-terminated "const char*" pointer to 8bit character data, which would be PAnsiChar in Delphi (though you are using MarshaledAString for that on Android). You are implicitly converting that pointer as-is to UnicodeString when passing it to System.Pos(), System.Copy...

Android service doesn't work when I close app

Are my first steps in creating a service correct? Again, I direct you to the Android documentation, which discusses this in detail: Media app architecture overview Audio app overview The key is to write a service that implements MediaBrowserService and contains a MediaSession, and write a UI app th...

Is it my steps correctly? I am not an Android developer, so this is WAY outside my area of expertise. 2. And in the application, send broadcast messages about the start or stop of playback. Unless you want other apps to control your service, using broadcast messages is not the best way to communica...

If I minimize my application and lock the screen on the phone, then after a couple of minutes the player stops playing. Android is likely killing your app process when it goes into the background and stays there for a period of time. Understand the Activity Lifecycle How do I make the player work i...

This is stated as much in the BASS_SetVolume() documentation : This function affects the volume level of all applications using the same output device. If you wish to only affect the level of your application's sounds, the BASS_ATTRIB_VOL attribute and/or the BASS_CONFIG_GVOL_MUSIC / BASS_CONFIG_GVO...

I don't use phone code but i have used BASS in the older C++ Builder. Maybe i can post you a snippet or 2 to point you in right direction. Just be aware that String is UnicodeString in C++Builder 2009+, so use the BASS_UNICODE flag when calling BASS_StreamCreateURL(), not on BASS_Init(): BOOL BassL...
