General Changes
Package structure
lmdrtl
Runtime and helper units, nonvisual base classes. Used by all subpackages and LMD-Tools (example: TLMDApplication, TLMDIniCtrl, XML services, LMD base interfaces etc.). Provides base classes like TLMDCustomComponent etc., from which all LMD-Tools controls should be derived from.
lmdrtlx
Runtime and helper units, nonvisual base classes and custom visual classes which are used by fewer controls and packages (example: PNG, LMD graphical objects).
lmdcore
Standard controls and shared controls which are used by larger sub packages and LMD-Tools. In addition the LMD-Tools Core controls will represent the new "SE" version which supports fully themed display and centralized visual appearance setting. In addition LMD Core controls can be downloaded by all registered user
lmdtools
LMD-Tools standard and database controls (as known from previous release).
Common designtime features
- New ILMDComponent interface, see intfLMDBase and LMDBase. Will be used to identify components to certain packages and to retrieve version number of a component at runtime.
- Only one About-Dialog for all controls (distinction will be made via ILMDComponent interface return values).
- All version number/date information for packages are stored now in LMDPackages.inc in LMDRTL folder. No more specific package inc files like LMDTools.inc etc.
- Only one component symbol file (LMDCPData.dcr can be found in \lmdshared folder)
- A new res file for all splash screens (LMDSplash.res in \lmdshared folder)
- C++ Builder files are created with Delphi Compiler and TLIB.exe conly.
