Once the download is completed, GetIt will open the readme file and the download folder. The installation of Patch 2 needs to be done manually, as GetIt only downloads the patch, it does not install it.

This patch addresses a number of issues in RAD Studio 10.4, pertaining to Delphi Compiler, the RAD Studio IDE in general and the new LSP-based Code Insight in particular, plus C++ Builder Android exceptions and some debugger issues.

The installation of this patch requires a prior installation of Patch #1 (separately available on GetIt and in the download portal). Installing this patch is recommended for all RAD Studio 10.4 customers. Note that this patch is fairly large to download (around 190 MB).

The patch includes detailed installation instructions as part of the Readme. Please read the steps carefully (or the corresponding steps in this blog post), as the GetIt download does not install the patch automatically. You must follow the instructions in order to install. Just using GetIt is not enough.

    • Unlike normal patches, it requires some manual installation steps -- installing the patch from GetIt only downloads, it does not install.

  • 2020-07-21 Blog Post By David Millington 10.4 Patch #2: Delphi code completion and IDE fixes

    • Code completion errors addressed:
      • An issue where completion "lagged", and so what you typed got replaced by something coming from the completion list (RSP-29262 and RSP-29855). Now, it should let you type whatever you want to.
      • Pressing Space did not enter the currently selected completion, but instead the completion dropdown would remain active (RSP-28887). Now, pressing space accepts the currently selected items
      • Changing a method that already existed in code via code completion added unnecessary braces "()" (RSP-29271 and RSP-28959). Now, a method can be replaced by invoking code completion and the existing parameter braces are used
      • Viewing a form as text caused an access violation (RSP-100869) For this issue, the patch resolves the AV, but code completion will not function in that unit until you close and reopen the form. A full fix should be in 10.4.1.
      • The Structure pane, which lists Error Insight issues, lagged behind the error insight 'red squigglies' shown in the editor by one keystroke (RSP-28476). Now, the Structure pane will always match what's shown in the editor
    • Other issues addressed:
      • An issue that manifested various ways to do with VCL styles: a VCL form did not display its Color in the form designer; when using multiple styles in a VCL app, the form designer did not preview them all correctly; VCL controls with a per-control style set drew darker once they were selected; and possibly other issues including issues in custom components that use styles. These are now resolved. (Internal bug reports, plus RSP-29603, RSP-28943, RSP-28477.)
      • Adding a .c file to a C++ project caused it to be added to the Deployment list (RSP-18241)
      • The IDE could freeze while scrolling the Messages pane (internal bug report)
      • The IDE did not save your choice of style (Light or Dark) when you set it in the Options dialog (RSP-29222 and RSP-29382)
      • Using Visual LiveBindings with a TDBGrid could freeze the IDE (RSP-28701, RSP-29174, RSP-29196, RSP-29216, RSP-29272, RSP-29289, RSP-29580, RSP-29658, RSP-29683, RSP-29998)
