Property Editors (Component creation) 1

[martinm]

Hi - I'm trying to create a new component.
I need a published property that will list all the form's components that have a TStringlist.

Question is, how do I produce the 'list' for the obj. inspector. Presumably by setting the proerty in question as 'FSourceComponent : TComponentProperty'

I've got DesignIntf, DesignEditors in the uses - I now get the problem that 'Proxies' cannot be found. Not surprising as Proxies.* doen't seem to be on my hard drive!!

Delphi 6/XP Pro.

Cheers.

add the designIde unit to your package file (xx.DPK)

Hmm - still the same.

If I add designide.dcp to my package it compiles ok.

I can place my component on a form ok, but when I compile this app., DesignEditors.pas unit is looking for proxies.pas, so back to square one!!

from D6 you must separate your design packages from your runtime packages, just to avoid this problem.

you can set this in the properties for your package if it is design time only ore runtime only...
