Functions giving different result with same parameters - google-maps

I use GMLib to work with Google maps and now I have come to a point where I am very confused.
I have the functions GetDistance and GetHeading to calculate the distance and compass direction between 2 markers on my map.
When I call them from my procedure GetHeadingDistance I get the result I expect (distance and direction is correct)- aSearchCallInfo is a class containing info that needs to be updated with the values.
Now I am trying to add a function that lets the user press the right mouse button on the map and the get info about that location.
But in this case I get very wrong results. As far as I can see of the results it uses GMMarker.Items[1].Position as source even when I know that it is GMMarker.Items[0].Position I send as parameter.
When I try to debug the functions by writing values to a textfile during calculation, I can see that it is the correct values it gets to work with at the correct position.
(GMMarker.Items[0].Position is the position of the user of the software)
Any ideas as what I could try to get this solved?
procedure TfrmQthMap.GMMapRightClick(Sender: TObject; LatLng: TLatLng; X, Y: Double);
var
MessageText: string;
LL: TLatLng;
Heading: double;
Distance: double;
Qra: string;
begin
if GMMarker.Count > 0 then
begin
LL := TLatLng.Create;
try
LL.Lat := LatLng.Lat;
LL.Lng := LatLng.Lng;
Heading := GetHeading(GMMarker.Items[0].Position, LL);
Distance := GetDistance(GMMarker.Items[0].Position, LL);
Qra := Maidenhead(LatLng.LngToStr, LatLng.LatToStr);
finally
FreeAndNil(LL);
end;
MessageText := 'Data for det sted du klikkede på: ' + sLineBreak + sLineBreak +

Format('Retning: %6.1f °', [Heading]) + sLineBreak +
Format('Lokator: %s', [Qra]);
ShowMessage(MessageText);
end;
end;
procedure TfrmQthMap.GetHeadingDistance(aSearchCallInfo: TCallInfo);
var
Heading: double;
Distance: double;
begin
if GMMarker.Count > 1 then
begin
Heading := GetHeading(GMMarker.Items[0].Position, GMMarker.Items[1].Position);
Distance := GetDistance(GMMarker.Items[0].Position, GMMarker.Items[1].Position);
barFooter.Panels[PanelDist].Text := Format('Afstand: %6.1f km', [Distance]);
barFooter.Panels[PanelDir].Text := Format('Retning: %6.1f°', [Heading]);
aSearchCallInfo.Distance := Format('%6.1f km', [Distance]);
aSearchCallInfo.Heading := Format('%6.1f °', [Heading]);
aSearchCallInfo.SaveToDatabase;
end;
end;
function TfrmQthMap.GetDistance(aOrigin, aDest: TLatLng): double;
var
Distance: double;
begin
Distance := TGeometry.ComputeDistanceBetween(GMMap, aOrigin, aDest);
Distance := Distance / 1000;
Result := Distance;
end;
function TfrmQthMap.GetHeading(aOrigin, aDest: TLatLng): double;
var
Heading: double;
begin
Heading := TGeometry.ComputeHeading(GMMap, aOrigin, aDest);
Heading := 180 + Heading;
Result := Heading;
end;

Variables automatically changes its value

I'm doing this question with Pascal (Google Kick Start 2020 Round A - Workout) and I ran into a problem that doesn't make any sense at all. Here is a part of my program:
var N,K,i,max,max1 : longint;
M : array [1..100000] of longint;
A : array [1..99999] of longint;
begin
readln(N,K);
for i := 1 to N do
read(M[i]);
for i := 1 to N-1 do A[i] := M[i+1]-M[i];
max := 0;
for i := 1 to N-1 do
if A[i] >= max then
begin
max := A[i];
max1 := i;
end;
writeln('max = ',max); writeln('max1 = ',max1);
readln; readln;
end.
So first I type in all the input data which are:
5 6 and
9
10
20
26
30.
When I run the program, the value of max is 10 and the value of max1 is 2.
But when I change the way max gets its value and totally did nothing with max1, the program becomes like this:
uses crt;
var N,K,i,max,max1 : longint;
M : array [1..100000] of longint;
A : array [1..99999] of longint;
begin
readln(N,K);
for i := 1 to N do
read(M[i]);
for i := 1 to N-1 do A[i] := M[i+1]-M[i];
max := 0;
for i := 1 to N-1 do
if A[i] >= max then
begin
max := i;
max1 := i;
end;
writeln('max = ',max); writeln('max1 = ',max1);
readln; readln;
end.
I run the program, and suddenly both the values of max and max1 are 4. How can this happen? Should I delete Pascal?? By the way if you can't install Pascal for some reasons then go to this link:https://www.onlinegdb.com/, select Pascal language and paste my program. Thanks for helping me!

Disappearing SubDetail TObjectList when JSonToObject

this is my first question. Sorry my english.
I have a classes like this:

I trying convert TSFis_M Object to JSon and Revert to Object for my datasnap application. I use converts and reverters for my datatypes (TObjectList and TObjectList)

And finally
for example i put 1 Button and 2 Memo on the form. And i try My created Object convert to Json, Json.ToString to Memo1. And Convert that JSonValue to Object.
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
MainFis : TSFis_M;
MainFis2 : TSFis_M;
DFis : TSFis_D;
SFis : TSFis_S;
begin
MainFis := TSFis_M.Create;
MainFis.SFis_D := TObjectList<TSFis_D>.Create(True);
DFis := TSFis_D.Create;
DFis._SFis_MID := 1;
MainFis.SFis_D.Add(DFis);
SFis := TSFis_S.Create;
SFis._SFis_MID := 1;
DFis.SFis_S := TObjectList<TSFis_S>.Create(True);
DFis.SFis_S.Add(SFis);
Memo1.Text := MainFis.ToJSON.ToString;
Edit1.Text := IntToStr(MainFis.SFis_D[0].SFis_S.Count);
MainFis2 := JSonToSFis_M(MainFis.ToJSON);
Edit2.Text := IntToStr(MainFis2.SFis_D[0].SFis_S.Count); // Access violation. Because MainFis2.SFis_D[0].SFis_S = Nil Now (That's the my problem. Why?)
Memo2.Text := MainFis2.ToJSon.ToString;
end;
But when i do this. TSFis_S is disappearing. In first step (ObjectToJSon) no problem.
{"type":"Unit1.TSFis_M","id":1,"fields":
{"_SFis_MID":0,"_SFis_D":
[ {"type":"Unit1‌​.TSFis_D","id":2,"fields":
{"_SFis_MID":1,"_SFis_S":
[ {"type":"Unit1.TSFis_S","id":‌​3,"fields":{"_SFis_MID":1} } ]
}
} ]
}
}
But when i trying revert to Object reverter goes wrong.
I can't found problem. What's my fault.
Thanks
PS: If i didn't explain, sample code here: http://goo.gl/3QnSw

Traversing strings for multiple instances of substrings - freepascal or delphi

Platform : Lazarus 1.1, FreePascal 2.7.1, Win 7 32-bit.
I have a string value as follows:
FileName[12345][45678][6789].jpg
By default (assume this is default behaviour 0), my program currently pulls out the last set of numbers from the last pair of square brackets to the farthest right of the filename, i.e. 6789. It does so using this code:
if chkbxOverrideUniqueID.Checked then
IDOverrideValue := StrToInt(edtToggleValue.Text);
// User is happy to find the right most unique ID
if not chkbxOverrideUniqueID.Checked then
LastSquareBracket := RPos(']', strFileName);
PreceedingSquareBracket := RPosEx('[', strFileName, LastSquareBracket) + 1;
strFileID := AnsiMidStr(strFileName, PreceedingSquareBracket, LastSquareBracket - PreceedingSquareBracket)
else // User doesn't want to find the rightmost ID.
// and now I am stuck!
However, I have now added an option for the user to specify a non-default behaviour. e.g if they enter '1', that means "look for the first ID in from the farthest right ID". e.g. [45678], because [6789] is default behaviour 0, remember. If they enter 2, I want it to find [12345].
My question : How do I adapt the above code to achieve this, please?
The following code will return just the numeric value between brackets:
uses
StrUtils;
function GetNumber(const Text: string; Index: Integer): string;
var
I: Integer;
OpenPos: Integer;
ClosePos: Integer;
begin
Result := '';
ClosePos := Length(Text) + 1;
for I := 0 to Index do
begin
ClosePos := RPosEx(']', Text, ClosePos - 1);
if ClosePos = 0 then
Exit;
end;
OpenPos := RPosEx('[', Text, ClosePos - 1);
if OpenPos <> 0 then
Result := Copy(Text, OpenPos + 1, ClosePos - OpenPos - 1);
end;
If you'd like that value including those brackets, replace the last line with this:
Result := Copy(Text, OpenPos, ClosePos - OpenPos + 1);

Is there a Delphi standard function for escaping HTML?

I've got a report that's supposed to take a grid control and produce HTML output. One of the columns in the grid can display any of a number of values, or <Any>. When this gets output to HTML, of course, it ends up blank.
I could probably write up some routine to use StringReplace to turn that into <Any> so it would display this particular case correctly, but I figure there's probably one in the RTL somewhere that's already been tested and does it right. Anyone know where I could find it?
I am 99 % sure that such a function does not exist in the RTL (as of Delphi 2009). Of course - however - it is trivial to write such a function.
Update
HTTPUtil.HTMLEscape is what you are looking for:
function HTMLEscape(const Str: string): string;
I don't dare to publish the code here (copyright violation, probably), but the routine is very simple. It encodes "<", ">", "&", and """ to <, >, &, and ". It also replaces characters #92, #160..#255 to decimal codes, e.g. \.
This latter step is unnecessary if the file is UTF-8, and also illogical, because higher special characters, such as ∮ are left as they are, while lower special characters, such as ×, are encoded.
Update 2
In response to the answer by Stijn Sanders, I made a simple performance test.
program Project1;
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
uses
Windows, SysUtils;
var
t1, t2, t3, t4: Int64;
i: Integer;
str: string;
const
N = 100000;
function HTMLEncode(const Data: string): string;
var
i: Integer;
begin
result := '';
for i := 1 to length(Data) do
case Data[i] of
'<': result := result + '<';
'>': result := result + '>';
'&': result := result + '&';
'"': result := result + '"';
else
result := result + Data[i];
end;
end;
function HTMLEncode2(Data: string):string;
begin
Result:=
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
Data,
'&','&',[rfReplaceAll]),
'<','<',[rfReplaceAll]),
'>','>',[rfReplaceAll]),
'"','"',[rfReplaceAll]);
end;
begin
QueryPerformanceCounter(t1);
for i := 0 to N - 1 do
str := HTMLEncode('Testing. Is 3*4<3+4? Do you like "A & B"');
QueryPerformanceCounter(t2);
QueryPerformanceCounter(t3);
for i := 0 to N - 1 do
str := HTMLEncode2('Testing. Is 3*4<3+4? Do you like "A & B"');
QueryPerformanceCounter(t4);
Writeln(IntToStr(t2-t1));
Writeln(IntToStr(t4-t3));
Readln;
end.
The output is
532031
801969
It seems here is a small contest :) Here is a one more implementation:
function HTMLEncode3(const Data: string): string;
var
iPos, i: Integer;
procedure Encode(const AStr: String);
begin
Move(AStr[1], result[iPos], Length(AStr) * SizeOf(Char));
Inc(iPos, Length(AStr));
end;
begin
SetLength(result, Length(Data) * 6);
iPos := 1;
for i := 1 to length(Data) do
case Data[i] of
'<': Encode('<');
'>': Encode('>');
'&': Encode('&');
'"': Encode('"');
else
result[iPos] := Data[i];
Inc(iPos);
end;
SetLength(result, iPos - 1);
end;
Update 1: Updated initially provided incorrect code.
Update 2: And the times:
HTMLEncode : 2286508597
HTMLEncode2: 3577001647
HTMLEncode3: 361039770
I usually just use this code:
function HTMLEncode(Data:string):string;
begin
Result:=
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
StringReplace(
Data,
'&','&',[rfReplaceAll]),
'<','<',[rfReplaceAll]),
'>','>',[rfReplaceAll]),
'"','"',[rfReplaceAll]),
#13#10,'<br />'#13#10,[rfReplaceAll]);
end;
(copyright? it's open source)
Unit HTTPApp has a function called HTMLEncode. It has also other HTML/HTTP related functions.
I dont know in which delphi version it was introduced but, there is the System.NetEncoding unit which has:
TNetEncoding.HTML.Encode
TNetEncoding.HTML.Decode
functions. Read up here. You dont need external libraries anymore for that.
From unit Soap.HTTPUtil or simply HTTPUtil for older delphi versions, you can use
function HTMLEscape(const Str: string): string;
var
i: Integer;
begin
Result := '';
for i := Low(Str) to High(Str) do
begin
case Str[i] of
'<' : Result := Result + '<'; { Do not localize }
'>' : Result := Result + '>'; { Do not localize }
'&' : Result := Result + '&'; { Do not localize }
'"' : Result := Result + '"'; { Do not localize }
{$IFNDEF UNICODE}
#92, Char(160) .. #255 : Result := Result + '&#' + IntToStr(Ord(Str[ i ])) +';'; { Do not localize }
{$ELSE}
// NOTE: Not very efficient
#$0080..#$FFFF : Result := Result + '&#' + IntToStr(Ord(Str[ i ])) +';'; { Do not localize }
{$ENDIF}
else
Result := Result + Str[i];
end;
end;
end;
how about that way of replacing special characters:
function HtmlWeg(sS: String): String;
var
ix,cc: Integer;
sC, sR: String;
begin
result := sS;
ix := pos('\u00',sS);
while ix >0 do
begin
sc := copy(sS,ix+4,2) ;
cc := StrtoIntdef('$' +sC,32);
sR := '' + chr(cc);
sS := Stringreplace(sS, '\u00'+sC,sR,[rfreplaceall]) ;
ix := pos('\u00',sS);
end;
result := sS;
end;
My function combines the for-loop with a minimal reallocation of the string:
function HtmlEncode(const Value: string): string;
var
i: Integer;
begin
Result := Value;
i := 1;
while i <= Length(Result) do
begin
if Result[i] = '<' then
begin
Result[i] := '&';
Insert('lt;', Result, i + 1);
Inc(i, 4);
end
else if Result[i] = '>' then
begin
Result[i] := '&';
Insert('gt;', Result, i + 1);
Inc(i, 4);
end
else if Result[i] = '"' then
begin
Result[i] := '&';
Insert('quot;', Result, i + 1);
Inc(i, 6);
end
else if Result[i] = '&' then
begin
Insert('amp;', Result, i + 1);
Inc(i, 5);
end
else
Inc(i);
end;
end;
in delphi You have the function
THTMLEncoding.HTML.Encode
