Just published my new "Delphi Dynamic Type Info (Creating Components in Runtime?)" article in the Blaise Pascal Magazine :-)

  Hello everyone,

For the last few months, I have been working hard on a new revolutionary Delphi technology, that I call Dynamic Type Info. It extends the RTTI allowing you to create new data types at runtime similarly to dynamic languages such as Java Script and Python, effectively allowing Delphi to compete head to head with them :-) .

I made the new technology part of the free Mitov.Rintime Delphi library available here:

https://mitov.com/products/mitov-runtime#overview

In the same timeframe, I also rewrote the Visuino from the ground up to use the new technology, and yesterday made a the official release of the new design.

Thanks to DTI most of the Visuino components are now defined in easy to edit plain text files, and are available as Open Source here:

https://bitbucket.org/mitov/visuino-libraries/src/master/

To commemorate the new technology, I also wrote a new article in the Blaise Pascal Magazine showing you how you can use the new technology in your Delphi projects.

The article is now available here:

https://www.blaisepascalmagazine.eu/product/issue-94-95/

You can download the source code of the project in the article here:

http://www.mitov.com/DynamicTypeInfoDemo.zip

I hope you will enjoy it, and use the new Dynamic Type Info functionality in your Delphi project :-)
I am already working on the next Article, so stay tuned ;-)

Cheers,

  Boian Mitov

My "Video Processing with Delphi Part 7 (Video Capture from Web Cameras, IP Cameras, TV Tuners, Web Streams, Generate, Record, Broadcast, and Receive Video)" article in the Blaise Pascal Magazine is published :-)

And my 7th Video Processing with Delphi is now published in the Blaise Pascal Magazine :-)
In the previous articles I introduced you to many of the cool features of VideoLab, playing filtering and morphing videos. I also showed you how you can create cool video effects and animate them with AnimationLab. I even showed you how you can render InstrumentLab gauges, and clocks inside the video, and how you can render the video in variety of 2D and 3D surfaces.

In this article, I demonstrate how easy it is to capture from variety of devices or online video streams, generate your own video, and how to record or broadcast the captured or generated video.

In the article I used the latest VideoLab features, added recently. They are not available in the official VideoLab, release yet, so if you want to follow the article, you should download and install the latest prerelease that I posted recently here:

Here are some pages from the article:

Please enjoy :-)

I am already working on the next Article, so stay tuned ;-)

My "Video Processing with Delphi Part 6 (Render video over different 2D and 3D surfaces, and elements)" article in the Blaise Pascal Magazine is published :-)

And my 6th Video Processing with Delphi is now published in the Blaise Pascal Magazine :-)
In the previous articles I introduced you to many of the cool features of VideoLab, playing filtering and morphing videos. I also showed you how you can create cool video effects and animate them with AnimationLab. I even showed you how you can render InstrumentLab gauges, and clocks inside the video.
Those are just few of the VideoLab capabilities. VideoLab not only can render visual instruments inside the video, but also can display video inside visual instruments, Scope or Waterfall components. It can even render videos in bitmap type elements, such as buttons in the Scope or Waterfall, or even on the surface of 3D shapes such as Round Cube.

In the article I used the latest VideoLab, and InstrumentLab, features, added recently. They are not available in the official VideoLab, and InstrumentLab release yet, so if you want to follow the article, you should download and install the latest prerelease that I posted recently here:

My 2 page ad from the Blaise Pascal Magazine

As you probably know, I have been a regular contributor to Blaise Pascal Magazine for the last couple of years, publishing articles in every issue.
In the previous and in the next issue of Blaise Pascal Magazine, there is also a 2 page ad for Visuino and the Mitov Software libraries.
Just for fun, I have decided to post it here :-)

I hope you enjoy it :-)
