64-bit and VCL Styles Deep Dive
What’s the same? • Integer, Longint, Cardinal – still 32bits • Int64, UInt64 – still 64bits • UnicodeString, AnsiString, WideString • Exceptions • Runtime Library (RTL) • SysUtils, Classes, etc…

What’s different? • NativeInt, NativeUint – 64bits • Pointer (all pointers) – 64bits • Dynamic Arrays – 64bit indexing • Floating point math - Double

Instructions and Addresses • 64 bit address space • Limited by physical hardware • Same core Intel instruction set • New REX prefix for 64bit instructions • RIP-relative addressing • Jumps – relative +/- 2GB • 16 byte stack alignments • Online resources • http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc300794.aspx • http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7kcdt6fy.aspx
Delphi 64-bit on Windows • Same Windows API • CreateWindowEx, PeekMessage, etc.. • Same Delphi RTL • SysUtils, Classes, Generics.Collections, etc… • Same VCL • Forms, Graphics, Controls, Menus, etc..

Delphi 64-bit on Windows – some gotcha’s • SizeOf(Pointer) <> SizeOf(Integer) • Integer<->Pointer casts will break in 64bit • SizeOf(THandle) = SizeOf(Pointer) • All Handles = SizeOf(Pointer) (HWND, HDC, etc..). • All code in process must be 64bit • Must have 64bit versions of external non-Delphi libraries (DLLs) • One, and only one, calling convention • register, pascal, cdecl, stdcall are ignored. • safecall is still “special” • Old “pointer math” code may break • Works in 32 and 64bit: MyPtr := PByte(P) + 10; • TList’s internal FList is now a TPointerList. Used to be a PPointerList. Removing ^ should be sufficient to port from 32-bit to 64-bit. • Tag property is now a NativeInt (32-bit vs 64-bit)
Delphi 64-bit on Windows – some gotcha’s • Inline Assembly • Cannot mix asm blocks with Pascal code • Only procedural level asm blocks supported • Stack must be 16-byte aligned at each call instruction • Define locals for temp storage • Do not modify the RSP stack pointer • New unified calling convention. First 4 parameters in registers, RCX, RDX, R8, R9 (or XMM0-XMM3) • Exception unwinding • No change for pure Delphi code. Exceptions function identically. • Inline Assembly can cause exception unwinding to fail if not properly written. • SHL/SHR – 32-bit values (Integer et al) will only shift in 32-bit space. 64-bit values will of course shift in 64-bit space. • No Extended type in 64-bit. Use TExtendedRec80 if necessary (binary files with Extendeds in them for instance)
Windows API gotcha’s • SetWindowLong / GetWindowLong should be replaced by SetWindowLongPtr / GetWindowLongPtr for GWLP_HINSTANCE, GWLP_WNDPROC, etc… as they return pointers and handles. • Pointers passed to SetWindowLongPtr should be type-casted to LONG_PTR and not to Integer / Longint. • SetWindowLong mapped to SetWindowLongPtr in Windows.pas. • Calls to our declaration of SetWindowLong are safe, as long as they are cast correctly.
Windows API gotcha’s (con’t) • Use explicit casts to WPARAM and LPARAM where appropriate. • Example: Passing pointers through SendMessageSendMessage(hWnd, WM_SETTEXT, 0, LPARAM(@MyCharArray)); • Use LRESULT to cast message results • Example: Message.Result := LRESULT(Self); • Message cracker records (TWMxxx) changed • Alignment changes and field-size changes
What can I do today? • Find all Integer<->Pointer casts, including Integer<->instance casts. • Check for Pointer size assumptions • Ensure external dependencies are also 64bit • Image/bitmap libraries • Hardware interfaces libraries • ActiveX controls • Consider rewriting Assembler in pure-Pascal • Better future portability (think ARM CPUs…) • Rely more on algorithmic performance rather than raw assembly performance. • Make sure you know what bit-size (32 vs 64) you’re shifting with SHL/SHR.
What’s New in the VCL? • 64-bit • VCL Styles
Themes in Delphi/C++Builder XE and earlier • Only 1 "theme" supported (native Windows) • 3rd party products required to change look of VCL apps • Current “skinning" products for Windows common controls • Requiring hooking WndProc's • Intercepting control messages • Separate controls needed for "custom" controls • TCustomControl / TGraphicControl descendants
VCL Styles • Multiple styles provided/supported • Custom style file creation • Custom style classes • Pluggable style engine • Works with TWinControl and TGraphicControl descendants
VCL Styles • TThemeServices replaced by TCustomStyleServices • Extends TThemeServices with more parts, states and methods • TStyleEngine • Processes control messages • Calls StyleServices to render parts • TStyleManager • Provides services such as • LoadFromFile • LoadFromResource • RegisterStyle • RegisterStyleClass - Associates file extension with Style class • SetStyle • Style selection • Style engine selection • Providing custom styles • Create style file (using provided style building tool) • Implement TCustomStyleServices descendant and render parts directly
What can’t be styled? • TMainMenu/TPopupMenu (main menu bar is styled, but not the pop-up parts) • Ribbon controls • OS dialogs
Typical Usage RTL • Uses Vcl.Styles, Vcl.Themes; • TStyleManager.SetStyle(‘Ruby Red Graphite’);
What’s new in the RTL? • 64-bit for Windows!!! • MacOSX - No COM, No ActiveX. :) • Windows specifics has been mapped to MacOSX equivalents wherever possible • TOSVersion • Architecture (32/64-bit), Platform (Win/Mac), Major, minor OS version, Service Pack info • TFormatSettings • replaces global format setting variables (that don't exist on MacOSX) • TZipFile - cross platform Zip support • SymLinks in IOUtils and SysUtils file handling routines • class function TFile.CreateSymLink(const Link, Target: string): Boolean; • TLoginCredentialService • Extensible framework agnostic login credential services with support for callbacks (success, failure, etc) • TPoint, TRect, TSize - new methods and properties • TPointF, TRectF, TSizeF - floating point versions
