ppDsgnCt in RB 10.04

rbuser

I try to use WPTools 4 with RB 10.04 But during compiling I get the
message that ppDsgnCt is not found. Is this unit renamed?

Best wishes

RB 9 introduces some architecture changes for the RCL component classes.
These changes requires updates to add-on components that are were using in
RB 7 and prior. Contact WPTools about an update that is compatible with RB 9
and later.

Here is an article about the changes that we made.


---------------------------------------
Article: RB 9 Architecture Changes
---------------------------------------

ReportBuilder 9 includes architecture changes to more cleanly separate
Designer code from Report code. The code related to component popup menus
and design controls has been broken out into separate classes.

For an example, check out RBuilder\Demos\RCL.


The myChkBox.pas unit contains the component classes....


TppCustomComponent

|
|

TMyCustomCheckBox

|
|-- TmyCheckBox
|
|-- TmyDBCheckBox


The myChkBoxDesign.pas unit contains popup menu and design control classes.
These are compiled into a separate package.


A. Popup Menu classes....

TppComponentPopupMenu

|
|

TmyCustomCheckBoxPopupMenu

|
|-- TmyCheckBoxPopupMenu
|
|-- TmyDBCheckBoxPopupMenu


B. Design Control classes.....



TmyCustomCheckBoxControl

TmyCustomCheckBoxPopupMenu

|
|-- TmyCheckBoxControl
|
|-- TmyDBCheckBoxControl
