Agenda
- Using TMS Diagram Studio: A scalable surface available in Delphi VCL Apps – Adam Brett
The TMS Diagram Studio is a fairly old component, which allows vector-drawing in a Delphi Application in a fully object oriented context. I have used it in multiple contexts in my programming work over a period of several years. This session will introduce the components how to code with them and show working examples of their use. - What’s wrong with VCL – Rob Lambden
Windows 3.1 was released in 1992, Delphi was first released in 1995. The VCL is still core to the Delphi paradigm, but 25+ years on how relevant is the VCL to current needs? What do we want in a UI and where do we want to run it? - TSQL Deadlocks – Patrick Davey
