RAD Studio 10.4.1 – Delphi Compiler And LSP Patch
Embarcadero has just released a new patch for RAD Studio 10.4.1. This includes Delphi compiler improvements and Delphi LSP improvements. The patch is available in GetIt, and the RAD Studio IDE Welcome page should indicate its availability. The patch is also going to be available in the my.embarcadero.com customers download portal. Read on to learn more about this patch and the two GetIt packages to deliver it.

Delphi Compiler and Code Completion Patch
This patch addresses two issues in the Delphi 10.4.1 compiler: a data layout issue with specific alignments, logged in Quality Portal as RSP-30890 and RSP-30787, and a performance issue when recompiling, logged as RSP-22074, RSP-30714, and RSP-30627. The performance improvement provided in this patch also helps with performance for Code Insight when using the LSP server.
The patch comes in two packages. The first includes updated compilers for all platforms available in Delphi and RAD Studio Professional. The second package includes the Linux compiler and it is available only for Enterprise customers. Delphi and RAD Studio Enterprise customers should see and install both packages (the order doesn’t really matter, as they are independent).
Each of these GetIt packages is a deferred package, which means you select it but the actual download and installation takes place when you close the RAD Studio IDE, as it replaces files the IDE uses. Just follow the steps, wait for the GetItCmd console app to perform the process, and notice that the files replaced in your RAD Studio installation folders are copied into a special backup directory under the main install location.
See screenshot below for one of the steps of the automatic installation process:

After the deferred installation, RAD Studio will reboot and the patch will show as installed in the GetIt Package Manager dialog and in the Welcome Page. Enterprise users will have to install both packages to see the Welcome Page notification go away.
