This repository contains all the source code for practical examples in the book "Delphi Multithreading: Threads, Concurrency, Parallelism and Asynchronous Programming," written by Cesar Romero. The examples cover key concepts and techniques in multithreading, helping users understand and implement effective threading solutions.
To get started with the examples, follow these steps. No programming skills are needed.
- Operating System: Windows 10 or later
- Delphi RAD Studio 10.2 or higher
- At least 4 GB of RAM
- A stable internet connection for downloading
To download the source code, visit the Releases page:
Once on the page, choose the latest version. Click the "Source code (zip)" option to download the files to your computer.
- Click the link above.
- Select the version you want to download.
- Click on "Source code (zip)" to download the files.
- Save the zip file to your desired location.
After downloading, extract the files:
- Locate the downloaded zip file.
- Right-click on the file and choose "Extract All."
- Follow the prompts to extract the files.
Once extracted, open the Delphi IDE and load the examples you want to explore.
Inside the extracted files, you will find different folders representing various topics such as:
- Asynchronous Programming: Learn how to handle tasks that run in the background without freezing your application.
- Multithreading: Understand how to use threads for performing multiple operations at once, enhancing app performance.
- Concurrency: Discover techniques for managing multiple tasks that run at the same time.
Each folder contains source code files and simple instructions to help you run the examples effectively.
To run an example from the source code:
- Open the Delphi IDE.
- Go to File > Open and navigate to the folder of the example you want to run.
- Select the appropriate
.dprfile (Delphi project file). - Click on Run, and the example will execute.
- Make sure you regularly check the Releases page for updates. New examples and enhancements may become available.
- Familiarize yourself with the basics of Delphi if you encounter any unclear sections. Many online tutorials can help beginners.
To enhance your understanding of the concepts covered, you can refer to the book "Delphi Multithreading: Threads, Concurrency, Parallelism and Asynchronous Programming." It offers deeper insights and additional examples that complement the code available in this repository.
