Hi all,

Did you know about cool IDE plugin called CompBar?
Those of you who do know that great plugin, also know that it is extremely
useful in locating the right component at design time.
It completely replaces old-fashioned and obsolete Component Palette to give
you more organisational functions that help you to work faster, and what's
more important more effectievely. The package is compiled in C++ Builder 6
IDE. But it should work in your Delphi 6 IDE since BCB6 and Delphi6 are
almost identical.

I am currently in work on implementing "component categories' groups"
feature in CompBAR and eveything is almost done.
Please go to the public.attachments to download the test package. ( CompBar
deign-time package )
Install the package the same way as you would install any other design-time
package .bpl.
Other two files besides the .bpl file, are files that help you to configure
component grouping. By default I've already added some category groups. If
you have LMD Tools installed you should see LMD Tools group when you click
the drop-down menu in "All Components" tool button.
Component categories are grouped by mask. For example, if you have installed
a component suite and that suite's tabs fit to some mask, then you can put
the suite's name into file and on the next line in the file you should put
the mask for that component suite.
For instance:
LMD Tools
LMD *
Another example
JVCL
Jv*

The .cfg files should be kept in the same location as the .bpl file.
Another file tells which categories are in the Borland category group.

If anyone finds time to compile the source files in Delphi7 or any other IDE
(source files are Object Pascal) for further deploying please email to
[email]cia (AT) pnz (DOT) ru[/email] and I will send you the source files.

Thanks for any feedback.
Cheers.

Hi,

There is a post on 7/12/2005 named "CompBAR design-time package".

Ah, I didn't notice that either.
But why didn't Danila post the source code or provide a link for it?

I didn't because first off I am not much of a Delphi programmer, and I
didn't want to post code that is a subject of further improvement. (For
example, since I use BCB only I can not modify the .dpr files of CompBAR to
work with modified sources. You or someone else can, and then you can send
me the modified Delphi project files) So I thought that I should first
improve the code, make it work for other IDEs and then post it.
In a couple of days I will upload the modified sources to the Internet and
then post about it here.


Cheers

CompBar is great! It is by far the most used ide enhancement on my
system. The catagories idea looks good as well.

Thanks for all your work,
Ivan

Shame, shame, you didn't trim that rather lengthy message :)

I am currently enhancing the grouping code so you can join developing new
CompBAR :)

Thanks!

Currently new source files would compile and install only in D7 because I
have Delphi 7 and I have created a package that would work with new source
files. I can not create D5 or D6 packages but other people can, and they
also might want few changes to be done to the code.
When I get feedback from other people who have compiled the source files for
other IDEs, I will post the source files that can be installed in D5 and D6,
and D7 Smile.
Just be more patient and wait a day or another. :)

Cheers.

Well, I just wanted you to know that at least one former CompBar user
doesn't think the Delphi 2005 Toolbar has made CompBar obsolete - I
miss it.

disabling delphi 2005's component bar :)
