LMD Storage can't read property from "String" to "string"

Delphi Geek

Hi,

I am using LMD StoragePack for storing properties into XML. So far
everything was working fine but in the latest update of RAD Studio 10.4
Enterprise I am getting the following problem. I am using a standard DB
Memory Table and I am storing Field Definitions into XML.

Old XML file example:

       <DATA>    

                <MemoryTable Type="Component">   

                        <Active Type="Identifier">True</Active>

                        <FieldDefs Type="Collection">                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

                                <item1 Type="CollectionItem">

                                        <Name Type="String">CreationDate</Name>

                                        <DataType Type="Identifier">ftDateTime</DataType>

                                </item1>

New XML file example:

       <DATA>    

                <MemoryTable Type="Component">   

                        <Active Type="Identifier">True</Active>

                        <FieldDefs Type="Collection">                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

                                <item1 Type="CollectionItem">

                                        <Name Type="string">CreationDate</Name>

                                        <DataType Type="Identifier">ftDateTime</DataType>

                                </item1>

XML Storage component now has a problem reading <Name Type="string">CreationDate</Name>,
because "string" is not with a capital letter. I have thousands of
settings which will no longer load. I have to manually search/replace
XML files, so that the settings load properly. Is there any way that you
could make property data read "case" insensitive?

Kind regards

Can you provide error message, please?

Anyway, the issue report is strange, because our code recognizes "string" type (with lower case first letter) as a valid type, while "String" type will be invalid.

Here is the error message. I hope it helps.

I cannot reproduced this issue, and moreover, as has been noted before, "string" (starting from lower-case letter) is considered as a valid type.

Can you create small demo project and send it to our support e-mail.
