Installing RAD Studio, Delphi, C++Builder (new installer experience)
This "How To" video shows you how to use the Feature Installer. The Feature Installer is an installation wizard that lets you select an initial set of RAD Studio features to install, such as support for specific combinations of programming languages and target platforms, language support, or help resources. During the installation process, the Installer starts the Feature Installer automatically. During the installation process, you must have a working internet connection to download content required to install the selected features. After you install RAD Studio, you can install additional features or remove installed features using the Feature Manager. You'll find it in the IDE's Tools | Manage Platforms menu item.

Using Tasks from the Parallel Programming Library in C++Builder
This How To Video uses the Parallel Programming Library's TTask class to manage procedures that can be executed in parallel threads. The TTask class creates and manages task instances represented by the ITask interface. The task procedures, including C++ lambdas, provided to the constructor are considered ready for execution after calling the Start method. The WaitForAll, WaitForAny, and the Wait methods of ITask are used to explicitly suspend execution of the calling thread to wait upon any or all running tasks. To cancel the execution of any task, call the Cancel method of the relevant instance of ITask. A task procedure can be created and managed for execution directly using the Run method.
