Delphi Version 6

 

Getting Started
There are many sources where you can browse for information about ABC 6 features and component details.
1

If the runtime demonstration program is installed by your setup program, the last page of the setup dialog shows an "Explore" button to launch the demo program.  You can also run this from the Start menu, or from within the Delphi IDE
2 The ABC component hint browser is installed in your IDE: Choose Help | Browse ABC Components from the Delphi or C++ Builder menu.
Move the mouse over the ABC Component Palette icons for quick tips and overview info.
Click the dialog Explore button to run the demonstration program.  
If this button is disabled it means the abc.exe demo program is not installed and referenced in the registry.  Try running the setup again or download abc6demo.exe from our web site.
Note, the browser is not available in Delphi 3 or C++ Builder 3.

In Delphi 6 you will also find a new Object Inspector property category for ABC for Delphi properties.   These are component properties we have identified as unique or significant to the ABC components.

Source for the main demonstration program is installed in the abc6\demo\abc subdirectory.  There are also 90 other sample programs in the abc6\demo path, together with batch files to compile them all from the command line (set up for Delphi 6).
5 There is a tutorial for some of the DB Navigation components, described in the printed manual and in the abc6.pdf file.  This application is also found in the abc6\demo\tutorial subdirectory.

In the Pro and Runtime versions, the abc6\Adapters subdirectory contains examples of different database connections using the new dataset adapter framework.  This path also includes the source code for all third party dataset adapters, which can be copied into your application.

When you are working with ABC in the IDE, the abc6.hlp file contains context sensitive help links for all components.
