Framework Documentation Enhanced By Links

The mORMot framework documentation, in its HTML online form, has been enhanced to include links to almost of the code symbols. In fact, the latest version of our SynProject tool will search for code symbols (types, methods, constants, functions):  Everywhere in the API Reference pages; In the text  […]

SynTaskDialog.pas version for Lazarus

Just to share a commit of some interest to FPC/Lazarus users. Ondrej Pokorny (aka "reddwarf" in our forums) did send to us a nice implementation of our SynTaskDialog.pas unit, compatible with Lazarus. Since it is incompatible with the current state of the other mORMot UI units (which are  […]

ShowCase: mORMot with FPC on Android

I just received a mail from Alfred (aka Alf in the source code), which did a lot of work to let our little mORMot compiles and run with FPC, especially under Linux, and also with an ARM processor. Hello Arnaud, A nice surprise ... Sample 2 native on Android !!!! See picture.  Works 100% !!!    […]

SynCrypto: SSE4 x64 optimized asm for SHA-256

We have just included some optimized x64 assembler to our Open Source SynCrypto.pas unit so that SHA-256 hashing will perform at best speed.
It is an adaptation from tuned Intel's assembly macros, which makes use of the SSE4 instruction set, if available.

Benchmarking JsonDataObjects JSON parser

There is a new player in town.
Since it has been written by Andreas Hausladen, the maintainer of the great Delphi IDE fix packs, this new JSON library is very promising.

And in fact, it is fast, and sounds pretty great!
Here are some numbers, compared with SuperObject, standard DBXJson, dwsJSON, QDAC and mORMot.
Please refer to previous benchmark articles about those libraries. We will now focus on JsonDataObjects.

Benchmarking QDAC3 JSON parser

Do you know QDAC3 ?
This is an open source project, from China (with Chinese comments and exception errors messages, but the methods and variables are in English).
It is cross-platform, and told to be very fast about JSON process.

You can download this Open Source project code from http://sourceforge.net/projects/qdac3
And their blog - in Chinese - is at http://blog.qdac.cc/

So I included QDAC3 in our "25 - JSON performance" sample.
Numbers are talking, now.

AES-NI enabled for SynCrypto

Today, we committed a new patch to enable AES-NI hardware acceleration to our SynCrypto.pas unit. Intel® AES-NI is a new encryption instruction set that improves on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm and accelerates the encryption of data on newer processors. Of course, all this is  […]

mORMot under Linux thanks to FPC

You can use the FreePascal Compiler (FPC) to compile the mORMot framework source code, targetting Windows and Linux.

Linux is a premium target for cheap and efficient server Hosting. Since mORMot has no dependency, installing a new mORMot server is as easy as copying its executable on a blank Linux host, then run it. No need to install any framework nor runtime. You could even use diverse operating systems (several Linux or Windows Server versions) in your mORMot servers farm, with minimal system requirements, and updates.

We will now see how to write your software with Linux-compiling in mind, and also give some notes about how to install a Linux Virtual Machine with Lazarus on your Windows computer, compiling both FPC and Lazarus from their SVN latest sources!
