Currently not, to be honest. I could not do much but discuss that topic. To summarize on the wizard dialog: - it sems to be a not-so-often occuring use case - if asked about, a lot of programmers step forward telling "I've done it like this ..." - if made flexible and useful for mostly any case the code is getting huge fast - see Luiz's implmentation Regarding a TDirectory class I think the properties are the same. The difference is it's a very commen use case to read directories and files into acontainer. And last but not least: it has to be taken into account that searching code and learning howto use it often takes as much time as to write something simple but working yourself. -- Marc Santhoff <[email protected]> -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
