About the book
A complete view of the book.
ACBr with AI in Practice shows how to incorporate artificial intelligence into everyday Delphi and ACBr component development without confusing speed with certainty. It begins with real tasks—understanding a project, locating sources, configuring components, filling documents, interpreting responses, and investigating failures—to teach productive AI use while preserving control over the code.
Across 12 chapters and four parts, the fictional Caixa Ágil project provides local simulations, a Win32 build, DUnitX tests, and fictional data. The book includes 44 prompts, a problem-oriented reference guide, and 22 skills organized by task and component family. NFC-e in the testing environment is the main focus, with criteria for preparing real integrations; ACBrMonitorPLUS and ACBrLib are outside the scope.
The challenge
Does this situation sound familiar?
AI can explain code, suggest configurations, and produce implementations in seconds—but a convincing answer may still use a nonexistent API, ignore the installed version, or propose an unsuitable fiscal workflow.
The book’s approach
A path from intention to practice.
Learn to provide context, consult applicable sources, constrain tasks, and validate every result through compilation, tests, schemas, testing environments, and review proportional to risk.
“An AI response is raw material. The work ends when there is evidence proportional to the risk.”
By the end of the book, you will be able to:
✓Identify where AI truly saves time in ACBr development
✓Prepare Delphi project context without exposing secrets
✓Guide AI with sources, instructions, and validation criteria
✓Configure, fill, and validate fiscal documents in the testing environment
✓Diagnose rejections and failures with logs, tests, and debugging
✓Update and deliver integrations with traceability and security
Questions that guide the reading
Answers begin with the right questions.
Questions explored through context, criteria, and examples.
Which context and sources reduce suggestions that are incompatible with the project?
How should configuration, document filling, and issuance be validated before production?
How can logs and rejections become experiments that reveal the cause?
Inside the book
A structured journey that helps you move forward.
Concepts and applications presented in a coherent sequence.
AI, context, and evidence
Recognize tasks suited to AI, prepare sufficient context, and distinguish responses, sources, and evidence.
ACBr environment and architecture
Understand installation, project structure, and responsibilities in an integration that directly uses ACBr components.
Configuration and testing
Separate parameters from secrets, configure certificates, and build a safe preflight for the testing environment.
Fiscal documents and issuance
Map fictional data, validate schemas, and treat issuance, responses, XML, events, and printing as verifiable states.
Diagnosis and validation
Organize facts, hypotheses, and experiments; use compilation, DUnitX, diffs, and adversarial review to validate changes.
Maintenance and delivery
Compare versions, protect data, preserve reversibility, and bring the complete method together in a traceable project.
What makes this book different
Depth to understand. Clarity to keep moving forward.
44 prompts for real development and diagnostic tasks
The Caixa Ágil project with a Win32 build, DUnitX tests, and fictional data
22 skills organized by task and ACBr component family
Direct use of Delphi ACBr components; ACBrMonitorPLUS and ACBrLib are outside the scope
Who this book is for
Knowledge that becomes action.
Delphi developers who use or plan to use ACBr components directly will find a direct approach connected to concrete problems.
✓ Delphi developers who use ACBr components✓ Professionals maintaining retail and fiscal systems✓ Technical leaders seeking productivity with control✓ Teams updating or modernizing ACBr integrations
Before you begin
What you need to benefit from the book
✓Basic knowledge of Delphi, Object Pascal, and VCL projects
✓Familiarity with debugging, databases, and Git is helpful; AI expertise is not required
An informed choice
This may not be the right book if…
—Readers seeking a complete course in tax law or accounting
—Readers who want to copy AI responses into production without validation
