BarMenu Components is a package to create menus and popupmenus with a gradient bar - like the classic start-menu. Gradient bar is drawn dynamically so you get very smooth bar with customizable colors. Alternatively you can have bitmap as a bar or even both; bitmap and gradient bar. Gradient bar can have dynamically created vertical caption with highlight and shadow colors. Also you can have additional bitmap (e.g. logo) on the bar. If you want you can also draw the menu bar manually through events.

Menu separator lines in BarMenus can be drawn in a short way - like in Office 2000. Also it is possible to have text in the separator line - like in ICQ. Separator line ends can be faded like in Windows XP.

Making some special application and need custom menu font? These components have MenuFont property to change the font other than the system default just for the menus in your application.

For more flexibility there is a DrawModule concept. DrawModule is separate module which handles the MenuItem drawing for the whole menu. You can switch between different DrawModules in designtime and runtime. Let the user choose the menu look in your application - implement with just one line of code!

These components are compatible with XP and you can set XP look.

Components are compatible with VCL, so it is easy to convert existing menus. In addition BarMenus are resource friendly. Package contains two

BarMenu Components package contain following components:

• The filtration and search for the required data can be of any level of difficulty.
• Optimization of search and filtration taking into account a current index.
• SQL filtration. Use "WHERE" clause to limit the effect of a SELECT statement to a subset of rows in the table.
• Support of BDE, MIDAS, ADO, dbExpress, InterBase Express, etc.
• Support alternative database access: DBISAM, KeyDB, KbmMemTable, etc.
• Development of VCL and CLX applications.
• A broad set of visual components designed for data input by an end-user for the search and filtration of data.
• Simple integration with any other visual components designed for data input.
• Simple integration with any dataset components developed by other producers.

The following compilers are supported:

ZeosDBO supports direct connectivity to the following databases using the vendor provided, native interface:

For other databases we propose to use implemented Active Data Objects (ADO) Bridge.

FIB+ library is based on FreeIBComponents library that is written by Gregory Deatz.

FIB+ features:

• IB 6.0. Support (For all Delphi versions)
• Full-functional work with array fields.
• Local data filtering in FIBDataSet
• The possibility of work with Origin and Domain for a field that allows to write more flexible data handling
• The possibility of watching and breaking off the process of records fetching from a server (fetch).
• Support of macroses in SQL.
• Additional events during work with transactions.
• The possibility of records locking on a server while editing
• The possibility of saving of connection options in a system registry.

• TAbout: An "About" dialog box, with system and EXE information.
• TCheckgroup: A component that contains a group of checkboxes.
• TFileversioninfo: Helmut Schottmueller's component to extract information from an EXE's resources.
• TMultilabel: A mulitline, multicolour, rotatable label component.
• TNEdit: A simple numeric edit box component.
• TOptionsdlg: A dialog box component to select an option from a list.
• TShapeex: An extended TShape component, with lines and arrows.
• TSlideBar: A VCL-based equivalent to the Win32 TTrackBar.
• TSplash: A "Splash" dialog for the start of an application.

 
This component is freeware and is based on the component 
TSlidePanel by Pablo Pissanetzky(pablo@neosoft.com ). 
 
 It has a couple of jump handles that allow the panel to be opened 
 fully or to be hidden from view. 

This property editor has been designed to get round two limitations of the standard Delphi string property editor:

1. inability to handle multi-line strings (i.e. strings with embedded CR/LF characters).
2. 255 character limit to string length.

The enhanced property editor works with all string and TCaption properties. It adds an ellipsis button to the right hand side of the data entry area in the property editor. Clicking the button displays a dialog box in which the property's value can be entered. Pressing return starts a new line. There is no practical limit to the length of strings that can be entered. The ability to type directly into the object inspector has been retained.

The edit dialog is resizable. Word wrapping can be switched on or off - and both settings are persistent. Text can be loaded and saved to disk.

TPJVersionInfo is a 32 bit non-visual component for all Win32 versions of Delphi and C++Builder that encapsulates the version information contained in an executable file's resources.

The component reads information from a designated file's VERSIONINFO resource. The required file is specified in the component's FileName property. Setting FileName to the empty string fetches version information for the executable containing the component. The boolean HaveInfo property indicates whether the file contains version information. This component can access variable file information for each language provided in the resource.

Run-time properties enable access to to version information. Properties enable:

• Access to fixed file information, either by field or the whole record.
• Access to the number of translations stored in the version information.
• Selection of the translation for which information is to be returned by other properties.
• Access to the language and code page of the current translation - by code and by name.
• Access to the string file information for the current translation - named properties access the Microsoft-defined string information, while an array property gives access to any string item by name.

The component makes calls to the Windows API. Therefore the version information being read must follow the Microsoft guidelines - be warned that not all software complies!

For detailed information about version information refer to the Win32 SDK.

A help file is provided that integrates with the help system of Delphi 3 to 7. An a-link keyword file is provided for integration with Delphi 6 and 7.

Source code of two demo programs is also provided.

A non-visual component that accesses version information resources in a given file. The component can read variable string information for multiple languages where these are supported by the version information resource.

Help file and demos included.

Now believed to be compatible with C++ Builder

DCPcrypt is an open source library of cryptographic components (encryption and hash algorithms) for Borland Delphi 4, 5, 6, C++ Builder (3?), 4, 5, 6 and Kylix 1, 2 for Linux.

The idea behind DCPcrypt is that it should be possible to "drop in" any algorithm implementation to replace another with minimum or no code changes. To aid in this goal all cryptographic components are descended from one of several base classes, TDCP_cipher for encryption algorithms and TDCP_hash for message digest algorithms.

DCPcrypt v2 contains full implementations of the following algorithms:

• Blowfish, Twofish
• Cast-128, Cast-256
• DES, 3DES
• Ice, Thin Ice, Ice2
• IDEA
• Mars
• Misty1
• RC2, RC4, RC5, RC6
• Rijndael (the new AES)
• Serpent
• TEA
• Haval
• MD4, MD5
• RipeMD-128, RipeMD-160
• SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512
• Tiger

These sources provide a Delphi (2-8 and 2005) direct interface to PGP requiring a preceding (!) full installation of PGP 6.5.x, 7.x, 8.x or 9.x.

Available capabilities:

• Encoding and decoding (encryption/decryption/signing/verifying)
• Creating and verifying file detached (Open)PGP signatures
• Importing, exporting, revoking, deleting keys & certificates
• Several key & certificate management functions
• Key & certificate generation (DH/DSS, RSA)
• x.509 certificate & S/MIME support
• Keyserver functions
• Some utilities

New in Version 4.5.2:

• Signing data without using PGP's passphrase dialog in TPGPEncode shouldn't cause access violations anymore.
• CreateX509CertificateFromRequest in X509Funcs.pas now returns a CertPropsList instead of a CertPropsRec.
• GetKeySetByAnyID in KeyFuncs.pas doesn't try to process non-empty blank IDs (spaces, e.g.) anymore.
• PGP's dialog for certificate selection shouldn't occasionally hide in background anymore.

• Full Unicode: UTF-8, UCS-2, UCS-4, UTF-16, UTF-32, UTF-7 ...
• ASCII
• ISO 8859
• Cyrillic: KOI8-R, KOI8-U ...
• CP{1250-7, 850, 866} ...
