Which components do you use?

Post by wulfskin »

Hallo Madshi,

I'm wondering which flat components you used for the buttons in madExcept exceptions? Because they are flat and I don't know flat buttons for delphi. Or are did you made it with an other programming system?
And which component did you use on the left of your madExcept settings window, it looks really amazing.

Moreover I like to thank you for madExcept, because it really helps me to find the bugs of my programs! Thanks for this good work!

Regards,
Hape

P.S.: Darf man im Forum auch deutsch reden?

English is preferred, so that everyone can understand it.

The flat madExcept buttons are done through pure win32 API calls. This was necessary to make sure that madExcept is fully thread safe (the VCL is not thread safe).

The left side of the settings dialog is done by custom painting (overwriting WM_PAINT) on a panel. It's a bit ugly doing it like that. I should have better put it into a real component which can be reused. But because of time constraints I decided to do it the quick dirty way... :sorry:
