Delphi 4 Components

Currently I have two components available for download: TVirtualFile and TCompressedVFile.

TVirtualFile

This is an invisible component for storing information into the form resource. Use the data property at design time to load a file into the component. At runtime you can access the data as a TMemoryStream from the data property.

Example: Use TVirtualFile to store a JPEG file in the form resource in the compressed format instead of the much larger, uncompressed format when it is loaded and saved as part of a TImage component.

TCompressedVFile

This is a subclass of the TVirtualFile component that stores the data in the form resource as compressed data. You can set the level and other parameters for the compression amount.

This was created primarily as an example of how to create a subclass of the TVirtualFile. All you have to do is override the ReadData and WriteData procedures to do your loading and saving into the form resource in any way you want.

Download the package file for both components and add it into Delphi 4 using the Add Packages function.

Here is the source for the TCompressedVFile component. Use this as a guide for creating other subclasses.

WARNING: These components are provided AS IS with no warrantees expressed or implied. Use at your own risk.
