What a great thing. I like this a lot.
I have a few pointers for those who haven't played yet.
RegisterComponent is not in the help file so you are left guessing what
argument is what.
Once you create your dll you must copy it into the XailerBin folder for
Xailer to see the tab appear and have Xailer load it.
You must add a INIT PROCEDURE and the register each component in there.
You need a RC file with your images that appear on the toolbar in your
project
You need to inherit either TComponent or TControl so that your item appears
in the correct section of the object explorer.
If you don't inherit one or the other, when you drop the component on,
Xailer will display an error. It doesn't crash, it just doesn't tell you
much.
Cheers
Nick

Nick,

Yes, its one of the better features in Xailer
> RegisterComponent is not in the help file so you are left guessing what
> argument is what.
The sintax is: RegisterComponent( cPalette, cImage, cTooltip, bClassBlock )
> Once you create your dll you must copy it into the XailerBin folder for

The DLL can be in any path you want. When I develop a new DLL y load it
always from its own project folder and only copy it to Xailer folder when
it is finished.
> You must add a INIT PROCEDURE and the register each component in there.
Yes.

Yes. And if your DLL needs custom images they should be there too. You can
add the .res with the images to your application to use them in runtime.

Yes.

This should be fixed. Thanks for the info.
About the property editors, I am almost done with an article which show the
standar property editors and how to write your own.

Nick,
Thanks for the tips. RegisterComponent is not on the help file since is only
available inside the IDE. We are working on a tutorial for creating
components and of course it will be documented there.

Nick, Jose
I have tried to my own component and have got it into the IDE toolbar and
dropped it onto a form.
But have not done an INIT Procedure.
Could you show an example of an Init Procedure and whick .prg does it go it
.... the project root ??
Some help would be appreciated.
