The BindLinkVCL Sample demonstrates the use of a TBindLink. In general, it is used for linking operations, for example, linking dataset fields to various lists. You can find Delphi and C++ code samples in GitHub Repositories. Search by name into the samples repositories according to your RAD Studio version. Components used in BindLinkVCL App: TBindingsList: Built on the TCustomBindingsList component and publishes additional properties that can be accessed from within the Object Inspector. Add a new binding and select TBindLink under Quick Bindings. TBindLink : Built on the TCustomBindLink class and publishes a set of additional properties that can be accessed from within the Object Inspector. TBindingSourceDB: Nonvisual component that provides a way to make data contained by the specified data source available to all components that want to access it, using LiveBindings. Along with these TDBNavigator, TDataSource,TClientDataset and other UI components such as TLabel, TEdit ,TImage were used. Implementation Details : Use the DBNavigator1 TDBNavigator to navigate through the dataset. TBindingsList is used to create managed binding among the different components. TBindLink is used to create bindings to the columns of the dataset. The ImageWithHander TImage displays the Graphic Field of the selected fish within the dataset. The EditWithHandler TEdit displays the Category Field of the selected fish within the dataset. The MaskEditWithHandler TMaskEdit displays the Category Field of the selected fish within the dataset. The ListBoxWithHandler TListBox displays the different Categories of the dataset. The MemoWithHandler TMemo displays the Notes Field of the selected fish. The LabelBind TLabel displays the Category, and Species Name of the selected fish. The LabelPosition TLabel displays the position of the selected fish within the dataset. The information these two TLabels display is defined in the Binding Expression Editor. The CheckBoxDatasetActive TCheckBox enables or disables the TDataSource.

I have been a Delphi developer since 1996. During this journey, I have learned new skills and acquired new tools to keep up with the demands of the the software market. In the early 2000s, I learned about AJAX, web services, and basic web design. However, my studies did not require extensive software development for the World Wide Web, and I was happy to go back to developing user interfaces with Delphi in the VCL. Times have changed significantly since then, and I have to be honest that right now I am still learning about web design for modern web development each day. It has become a major part of my daily routine to learn one new aspect of web development each day. I consider web development a mandatory tool in every software developer’s tool belt. Basic web design skills go just along with it. If you struggle with HTML and CSS just as much as I, look no further. I might just have the video tutorial you need. The best thing about it: It’s free. It will start right at the beginning. From the perspective of a Delphi developer, you will learn step-by-step how to build my application that I built to make ordering my books easier. As you can see, you can select the store and book title you want to order and the application will navigate to the page for you where you can order the book. Very simple. Or really? Three months ago, the design of the page would have been an impossible thing to do. You will learn about: Separating application development with TMS WEB Core and web design Bootstrap FontAwesome Using (free) plugins in Visual Studio Code for web design Emmets and code completion for web design with Visual Studio Code WYSIWYG of your web design in the web browser Link you web design to your application controls If you have a TMS WEB Core license and use RAD Studio, this tutorial will get you started how to develop web applications with external web design. For the external web design, we will use Visual Studio Code. If you like this tutorial and the hands-on approach, you will find more examples of this type in the book series. You can use the form above to learn more about each book title on Amazon. Holger Flick
Create documentation is boring. At least that’s my opinion, and most developers I know also don’t like to write it. But that’s something we need to do, of course. Thus, the easiest it gets to document things, the better. Photo by Aaron Burden on Unsplash With TMS XData, you create your REST API server using Delphi very easily, but you also get it documented almost automatically using the automatic Swagger generation feature. Since all endpoints are strong typed in server, all it takes is just to enable a single property and have your endpoints listed and testable. This feature has been available for years already. But now XData takes it to another level. A good (if not the best) way to document your source code is to use XML Documentation Comments. In the interfaces and methods that build your service contract, you can simply add specific XML tags and content, like this: /// /// Retrieves the sine (sin) of an angle /// /// /// Returns the Sine (Sin) value of an angle radians value. /// The value returned will be between -1 and 1. /// If the angle is zero, the returned value will be zero. /// /// /// The angle in radians. /// function Sin(Angle: Double): Double; And Delphi IDE will automatically use it for Help Insight , showing you information about the method on-the-fly. For example, if some developer is trying to use the Sin method of your API, information will be conveniently displayed: The good news is that, with XData, you can use such XML comments in the Swagger document and Swagger-UI that are generated automatically by XData, improving even more your REST API documentation. Since the API endpoints are generated directly from the interfaced and methods, XData knows exactly the meaning of each documentation and can map it accordingly to Swagger. By asking Delphi to generate the XML documentation files, and using a single line of code like this: uses {…}, XData.Aurelius.ModelBuilder; … TXDataModelBuilder.LoadXmlDoc(XDataServer.Model); XData will reuse the documentation and include it in Swagger: Using different documentation for Help Insight and Swagger Reusing the same XML comments is nice as you don’t repeat yourself. Document your code just once, and the same documentation is used for documenting your Delphi interfaces (Delphi developments) and your REST API (API consumer development). But, if for some reason you want to use different documentation content for Delphi developers and for REST API users, that’s also possible. For example, suppose the following documentation: Note that tags summary and param are the regular XML documentation tags. They will be used for Help Insight: And swagger tags with no name attribute (A), or name param-A (B), param-B (C) and remarks (D) will be used exclusively for Swagger documentation: Customizing tags You can also customize the tags in Swagger. Endpoints are grouped together inside a tag, which can have a name and description. By default, the name of the tag will be path segment of the interface service. But you can change it using either swagger tag using tag-name attribute. The description of the tag by default is empty, but you can define it using the regular summary tag, or optionally using the swagger tag with tag-description attribute. Consider the following documentation for both IArithmenticService and ITrigonometryService : The above tags will generate the […]
We already have an extensive set of powerful and feature-rich UI controls in our TMS FNC UI Pack. But there is always room for some additional tools to help you with your cross framework and cross platform work. In this new release of our TMS FNC UI Pack we’ve added 5 new components which were requested by you, our community of great developers who see the enormous advantages of components that can be used on VCL, TMS Web Core, FMX and Lazarus with just one code base. TMS FNC Controls can be simultaneously used on these frameworks: TMS FNC Controls can be simultaneously used on these operating systems/browsers: TMS FNC Controls can be simultaneously used on these IDE’s: New to the TMS FNC UI family TTMSFNCRichEditorHorizontalRuler TTMSFNCRichEditor has a ruler control that can be connected to it. This control has the intuitive handling that you are familiar with from the advanced text editors. With this ruler you can easily control the margins of your page and the indentation of your text. And you have the ability to add tabs, which sets the position of your text when the next tab is pressed. This component is a great advantage to get your text document to a higher level as it helps you with the layout of your text. TTMSFNCSplitter Our TTMSFNCSplitter has the same behavior as other splitters, but as this is a FNC control, you can use the same component on all the different platforms. No more need to set framework specific properties. Next to this timesaving feature, we have made the appearance customizable to your preferences, so the control can blend in with your application. TTMSFNCProgressBar One of the most requested components is the TTMSFNCProgressBar, this provides users with visual feedback about the progress of a procedure within an application. With more than 25 properties to set the appearance and layout of the component, you have a huge range of possibilities to customize your TTMSFNCProgressBar. And by changing the minimum and maximum value, you can easily invert the direction of the progress. TTMSFNCRating While we were creating the TTMSFNCProgressBar, we noticed that it might be nice to have a similar control with interaction. Therefor we created TTMSFNCRating. With the use of images (SVGs as well) you can set a scale to give a rating. If you clear the images, the control will look like a TTMSFNCProgressBar but with the ability to interact with it. This can be done by clicking on the value that you want, sliding from the end of the progress to where you want or via your keyboard with the arrow keys. TTMSFNCWaitingIndicator An indicator for illustrating an indefinite waiting time for a task that is in progress. You can choose if you want show a progress or if you want circles, squares or images moving around a center bitmap or if you want them to change size. In case you want to show that a form or a panel is currently not available, you can center the waiting indicator over the parent and use an overlay to emphasize this. If you want to see some other examples or the behavior of the FNC splitter and rating control, you can have a look at the following video:
