On which Delphi version are you using rest client?

[RobertoSchneiders]

The framework documentation don't make clear what versions are supported and maintained. I think we should specify this.

@fabriciocolombo was testing in a lot of versions, but, I don't think it will do it anymore.

The API was tested in Delphi 7, XE, XE2, XE3 and XE4. It is also compatible with Mac OSX and iOS.

I and the monde-sistemas team are maintaining the code for Delphi XE7 (Win32), but, we can't test for all other (unused) versions. So, I need to know what versions we will support and who can help with tests.

I don't know any continuous integration service for Delphi, so, I think we have to do it manually.

My company will be using XE5 for another year, so I can run tests against that.

[RobertoSchneiders]

Great @vonloxley :+1:

XE3

[fabriciocolombo]

I am working with XE2, and i have currently installed D7, D2007, D2010, XE, XE3 and XE7. I would like to support only 2010 or later, because of new features like new RTTI and Attributes.

[RobertoSchneiders]

So, let's support only 2010+ versions. Any objections?

[thomaserlang]

None.

I have been using on XE5 - now I am trying install on XE8 - no good.

unit DbxJsonUtils;

interface

uses SysUtils, DateUtils;

type {$I DelphiRest.inc}

{$IFDEF USE_GENERICS} TJsonAttribute = class(TCustomAttribute) private FName: string; public constructor Create(const AName: string); property Name: string read FName; end;

JsonName = class(TJsonAttribute); JsonDefault = class(TJsonAttribute); JsonISO8601 = class(TCustomAttribute); {$ENDIF}

implementation

Identifer expected but implementation found. Sorry I not clever enough to figure out what is wrong.

[RobertoSchneiders]

Probably the USE_GENERICS is not defined.

Try to add this to the line 117 of the DelphiRest.inc file

{$IFDEF VER290} // RAD Studio XE8
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_7_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_2007_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_2009_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_2010_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE2_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE3_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE4_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE5_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE6_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE7}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE7_UP}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE8}
  {$DEFINE DELPHI_XE8_UP}
{$ENDIF VER290}

It should work. If it works, send us a pull request, ok?

[czar20]

Yes that worked. I have never used GIT I am not sure how to do a pull request.

[RobertoSchneiders]

No problem @czar20, we will fix this.
