Hello Folks,

So this is my first post here, I hope I did not forget anything about the rules...

I must commit that I am pretty new to Reverse Engineering.
I am experienced in developing highly optimized applications in C++ and OpenCL but I have never worked with assembly language, except testing some intrinsics and looking at the result...

I am currently working on a Delphi XE2 application (the author states this in the manual, IDR uses the Delphi XE2 knowledge database).

My first problem is that IDA is by far not as clever as IDR concerning reversing Delphi applications. I tried transferring all the labels from IDR to IDA via the .idc generator but got many errors stating that some bytes cannot be renamed because the name already exists.

The second and much bigger problem is that there are many many subroutines ending with an sp-error.
I do not have enough experience to fix this and I haven't been able to find any good resources describing this "step-by-step" (I know that one can't give a universal answer to this).
Shouldn't IDA be able to resolve this issue when the application is run and the debugger steps through the function when it is executed?

Thanks in advance...

Greetz
