TZDB 1.7.110207

No code changes, just an updated DB from “The tz Database“. There are a small number of changes there so upgrade only if you want to stay 100% up to date. I would just recommend you skip it. As usual, you can get the latest version here.

Collections 1.1.1

This is a bug fix release that addresses the following issues:

  1. No possibility to remove an value from a list or associative collection without invoking the “removal procedures”. This results in freed objects for object based collections. In pre-1.1 versions this wasn’t necessarily an issue. (Thanks Mason for the report, hope this unblocks your scripting project)
  2. Removal procedures were not invoked for bidirectional dictionaries.
  3. TObjectMultiMap<TKey, TValue> still used a “class” restriction on TValue type parameter.
  4. Fixed Delphi 2010 build. Note that by “fix” I mean — disabled Collections.Dynamic code and TBitSet class. Cannot make the compiler accept those (circular unit problems that were fixed in XE).
