Multithreaded Zip File Extraction - Delphi

[@programmingwithdelphi]

Very good explanation. Especially it is good, to show, what does not work and after that, how it goes.

Got that woking nicely now - how about the same for downloads :) i.e. grab multiple files at once...

Embarcadero did a terrible job with parallel programming. It's so confusing.

[@peardox1166]

Took my own advice and converted this to do Downloads - rather unintuativelky using synchronous Get is very fast and easy. Test download 100 files took 95 secs Synch single threaded, switch to MutiThread and the same takes six seconds :) 1000 images in under a minute, not bad...

okay, I'm just a little confused

[@codegearguru]

Confused in what way?

Inline variables ... the ugliest thing on earth brought to Pascal. Couldn't care less for the rest of the show.

Long awaited feature. I love it.

[@landaucorl5390]

@@serglogin2 Yeah, sure ... if you write new code. However, you can't refactor your own code/libraries/etc because there are still companies out there running various old Delphi editions and I still want to take advantage of good old code, probably bug free, hundreds of thousands of lines 🙂. Plus, it's not Pascal.

i totally agree with you. inline vars are very bad practice for quality programming. brought to us from those crappy JS and C like languages. amazing how in 2022 people still don't understand what Type Safety means...
