FileExplorer for Delphi 2005

Wed, 10 Nov 2004 03:49:48 GMT

Well, I didn't expect to be updating this quite so quickly, but it's my own laziness that caused it so I can't really complain.

I've updated my FileExplorer addin so that it behaves in a more civilised manner when it comes to where it places its packages than it used to.

I got the good oil from Allen on what I should be doing, spent a little time learning how to add Pascal scripting to my InnoSetup project (which is stupidly easy, BTW. InnoSetup rocks!), and the result is a setup that will hopefully play nicer with security issues, etc.

Of course, I said "should" and "hopefully" a few times above. I've tried to test it out as well as I can, but I'm sure you'll all let me know if there are any problems :-)

I've updated my FileExplorer addin for Delphi 2005, as well as adding a couple of new features, such as support for jumping direct to any of the paths in your VCL and .NET Library Paths. More info here

FileExplorer for Delphi 8

Mon, 05 Apr 2004 07:18:23 GMT

I've always been quite interested in extending Delphi using the Open Tools API. My first add-in was back in Delphi 2 days, called CodeQuick. Amazingly, it's still listed on Torry's for all you D2 users out there :-).

Anyway, lately I've been writing a few add-ins for Delphi 8 on flights and in spare moments, the first of which is ready for some more public scrutiny.

FileExplorer is a free add-in for Delphi 8, which provides Explorer-like functionality in a dockable window inside the IDE. There's more info and some screenshots on the project page, along with some ToDo's, but please feel free to grab this version and try it out. Feedback is of course welcome.

SQLSite is available for download here. SQLSite is an extension to CodeSite 2 from Raize Software which allows CodeSite messages to be sent from SQL Server Stored Procedures and Triggers. It comes as a collection of Extended Stored Procedures, which once installed into SQL Server, can be called like any other procedure from T-SQL.

IBSite is available for download here. IBSite is an extension to CodeSite 2 from Raize Software which allows CodeSite messages to be sent from Interbase Stored Procedures and Triggers. It comes as a collection of UDF's (User Defined Functions), which once installed into Interbase, can be called like any other statement from Interbase SQL.
