FIREMONKEY - load alternative font

I would like to load an external font in a Delphi Firemonkey application.

Is there any information how to do that?


Not sure if it works for FireMonkey, but this code worked for me when I wanted to load custom fonts to my standard Delphi applications.
 
uses
  Windows, SysUtils, Messages, Classes, Generics.Collections;

type
  { .: TExternalFonts :. }
  TExternalFonts = class sealed(TList<HFONT>);

var
  ExternalFonts: TExternalFonts;

function AddExternalFont(const AFileName: String): HFONT; overload;
function AddExternalFont(const AStream: TStream): HFONT; overload;

implementation

{ .: DoCleanup :. }
procedure DoCleanup();
var
  I: Integer;
begin
  for I := ExternalFonts.Count -1 downto 0 do
  begin
    RemoveFontMemResourceEx(ExternalFonts[I]);
    ExternalFonts.Delete(I);
    //SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_FONTCHANGE, 0, 0);
  end;
end;

{ .: AddExternalFont :. }
function AddExternalFont(const AFileName: String): HFONT; overload;
var
  FS: TFileStream;
begin
  Result := 0;

  if not FileExists(AFileName) then
    exit;

  FS := TFileStream.Create(AFileName, fmOpenRead + fmShareExclusive);
  try
    Result := AddExternalFont(FS);
  finally
    FS.Free();
  end;
end;

{ .: AddExternalFont :. }
function AddExternalFont(const AStream: TStream): HFONT; overload;
var
  MS: TMemoryStream;
  Temp: DWORD;
begin
  Result := 0;

  if not Assigned(AStream) then
    exit;

  Temp := 1;
  MS := TMemoryStream.Create();
  try
    MS.CopyFrom(AStream, 0);

    Result := AddFontMemResourceEx(MS.Memory, MS.Size, nil, @Temp);
    if (Result <> 0) then
      ExternalFonts.Add(Result);
    //SendMessage(HWND_BROADCAST, WM_FONTCHANGE, 0, 0);
  finally
    MS.Free();
  end;
end;

initialization
  ExternalFonts := TExternalFonts.Create();

finalization
  DoCleanup();
  ExternalFonts.Free();

end.

Pythia 程序是用於在高能碰撞中生成事件的標準工具 物理模型

 Pythia 程序是用於在高能碰撞中生成事件的標準工具，包括一組連貫的物理模型，用於從少體硬過程到復雜的多粒子最終狀態的演化。 它包含一個硬過程庫、初始和最終狀態部分子簇射的模型、硬過程和部分子簇射之間的匹配和合併方法、多部分相互作用、束殘餘、弦碎裂和粒子衰變。 它還具有一組實用程序和多個與外部程序的接口。 Pythia 8.2 是從 Fortran 完全重寫為 C++ 之後的第二個主要版本，現在已經成熟到可以完全替代大多數應用程序，尤其是 LHC 物理研究。 許多新功能應該允許改進數據描述。

List of event generators
The major event generators that are used by current experiments are:
Hadronic event generators[3]
    PYTHIA (formerly Pythia/Jetset)
    HERWIG
    ISAJET
    SHERPA
Multi-purpose parton level generators
    MadGraph5 (able to run directly on the web site after registration and an email to the author)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event_generator

Event generators are software libraries that generate simulated high-energy particle physics events. They randomly generate events as those produced in particle accelerators, collider experiments or the early universe. Events come in different types called processes as discussed in the Automatic calculation of particle interaction or decay article.

 The VINCIA code is a plugin to the high-energy physics event generator PYTHIA 8.2.
Starting from PYTHIA 8.3, VINCIA will be distributed as part of the PYTHIA source code, and hence this standalone plugin will not be relevant to PYTHIA 8.3 users.
VINCIA is based on the dipole-antenna picture of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and focusses on describing jets and jet substructure with high precision.

【Kickstart で CentOS7 自動インストール】

    Kickstart 環境を構築し、CentOS7 を自動インストールする手順をまとめる


[Server: Kickstart 環境の構築]
1. TFTP server セットアップ
2. DHCP server セットアップ
3. FTP Server セットアップ    (TFTP)
4. Kickstart 設定 (CentOS7インストール用)

[Client: Kickstart 環境の利用]
1. CentOS 自動インストール実行手順

4. Kickstart 設定 (CentOS7インストール用)

f. PXE ブート設定ファイル配置ディレクトリ作成

mkdir -p /var/lib/tftpboot/pxeboot/pxelinux.cfg/

g. PXE ブート設定ファイル作成

i. kickstart ファイル作成

    オプションの詳細は RHEL7インストールマニュアル/23.3. キックスタート構文の参考資料 を参照

 PXEにより、VirtualBoxでCentOS 7のインストーラーを起動した（図で解説あり）
5月 01, 2019


VirtualBox Version 5.2.20 r125813 (Qt5.6.3)、CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core)を用いて、PXEによるインストーラーの起動までを試した。
PXEサーバー、PXEクライアントともに、VirtualBoxの仮想マシン。
作業開始時点のPXEサーバーの状態は、Minimal ISOをインストールした直後とする。
SELinuxはEnforcing、firewalldはstopしないで必要なだけ開放した。
基本的に、Redhatの公式ドキュメントのやり方を踏襲した。

PXEについて
PXEは、ネットワークブートを実現する仕組み。
OSやインストーラーを、ネットワーク経由で起動できる。
Kickstartと組み合わせることで、Linux OSのインストールを自動化できる。

PXEに必要なサーバーは、下記の3つ。

    DHCPサーバー - IPアドレス付与、TFTPサーバーとブートローダーの場所を教える
    TFTPサーバー - ブートローダーを提供、インストールソースの場所を教える
    ファイルサーバー（HTTP、FTP、NFSなど） - インストールソースを提供

 Diskless Windows 10 PC Setup Procedure By scan80269,

Gigabit Ethernet NIC with PXE boot support

Gigabit Ethernet NIC, with driver for Windows Server  

DHCP server static IPs

Contents of iscsi.ipxe (text) file: #!ipxe

sanboot iscsi:<server IP>::::iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:<server name>-win10-target boot

Share iSCSIVirtualDisks folder with rear/write permission for client username

Create TFTProot folder

Put ipxe-undionly.kpxe and iscsi.ipxe files in C:\TFTProot

Download and set up Tiny PXE Server (Tiny PXE Server - reboot.pro)

Enable iSCSI Service


Client Connect network via gigabit Ethernet NIC and cable

Attach local storage (HDD/SSD)

Install Windows 10 OS into hard disk

- Copy OS install files into FAT32 formatted USB flash drive to use for OS installation

Install NIC driver and other device drivers (graphics, audio, etc.) as needed

Ensure client can properly browse on Internet

 Launch iSCSI Initiator

- Type "iscsicpl" <Enter> at the Command Prompt window and answer Yes to the prompt

- This will configure Win10 to auto launch the iSCSI initiator service at OS startup

Launch Registry Editor (regedit.exe) to set boot flag for LAN driver

Locate the LAN driver service name under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services

Example: for motherboards featuring Intel I217V/LM, I218V/LM, I219V/LM LAN the driver service name is: e1dexpress

Click on the driver service name, locate the Start key (REG_DWORD), double-click it and change its value to 0

- Repeat this Start key value change to 0 in HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services and HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet002\Services

Close Registry Editor

Download and run Disk2VHD.exe (from Microsoft Sysinternals: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/ee656415.aspx)

- Ensure "Use Vhdx" and "Use Volume Shadow Copy" checkboxes are checked

- In "VHD File Name" box, enter "\\<Server IP>\<share name>\Win10.VHDX (e.g. \\192.168.0.100\c\Win10.VHDX)

- Run Disk2VHD to create VHDX file on server

 
Server:

Set up iSCSI target LUN

Use "existing VHDX"

Add MAC address of client to iSCSI initiator list

 

 

Client:

 Launch "iSCSI Initiator"

 On "Discovery" tab, click "Discover Portal" and enter IP address or DNS name of server

 on "Targets" tab, ensure a target appears on "Discovered targets" list

 target name should look like: iqn.1991-05.com.microsoft:<server name>-Win10-target

 Shut down Windows and detach hard disk from client

 Power up client and it should proceed to PXE boot

- PXE boots to iPXE from server, then chains to iSCSI target LUN to start Windows 10 boot

 

 

 

Notes:

A. This procedure sets up a fixed size VHDX on the server. An alternative is to create a new dynamic VHDX (of desired max size) on the server, mount it locally (using iSCSI Initiator running on the server), connect the client disk to the server via USB-to-SATA adapter, then partition copy the client disk to the mounted VHDX. This preserves the dynamic nature of the VHDX file and helps conserve disk space on the server.

JvXPCtrls

Depends on package JvCore and JvStdCtrls.
Several controls imitating the look and feel of Windows XP.

    JvXPButton and JvXPCheckbox: a button and a checkbox in XP-style
    TJvXPProgressBar: Draws a progressbar in XP-style. The color of the the background and of the blocks is configurable. Doesn't support Marquee-style.
    JvXPBar: a container side-bar with collapsable panels. Similar to TJvRollOut-Panel, but with string items instead of controls. Collapsing/Expanding happens smooth and nicely animated.

Dependency Walker is a free utility that scans any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module (exe, dll, ocx, sys, etc.) and builds a hierarchical tree diagram of all dependent modules. For each module found, it lists all the functions that are exported by that module, and which of those functions are actually being called by other modules. Another view displays the minimum set of required files, along with detailed information about each file including a full path to the file, base address, version numbers, machine type, debug information, and more.
