Dear Sir,
How is it possible that I have to discover that Firemonkey is absolutly not usable in really simple applications.
I'm a very long term Borland Turbo Pascal, Delphi developer. I skipped developing the last 5 years and thought that Firemonkey was the solution for a project to be used by around 1000 people on their own Phone device (IPhone and Android models).
I'm so very much disappointed that I after I bought both Delphi en TMSSoftware Cloud software I had to find out that even a simple program with only a few components on the form just wont work.
After contacting TMS Software, because the problem occured when I used their components I got an explenation that the problem has to do with the classes used in the Delphi RTL.

I only placed a GMaps component and a Google Calendar component and used a (threaded) component to dial the customer in de appointments.
This is just not possible.
I only compiled it for the Android Phone when I encountered this problem.
It is really essential for me that this issue will be solved. I'm not a java expert and don't want to learn the Android Development environment and the Ios development environment. I cannot afford the time because of the deadline of the project.
High regards,
Henk van Hoek
