Programs

 

All the projects contain the finished code, compiled and uncompiled for ease of use

As what counts for nearly all my projects, my delphi applications are kept as simple and small as possible. In essence an application is a program or group of programs designed for endusers, but all of my applications were aimed at any user. My application software can be divided into two general classes: system and applications software. My systems software consists of small sample code programs that interact with the computer at a very basic level, and also a very uncomplicted level.. This does not include operating systems, compilers, and utilities for managing computer resources or any of that kind, that is also beyond the scope of my website.

My applications also do not include any programs that make use of a database or any word processors. In a sense all of my delphi applications do not need any other files to run, but they do ofcourse require the operating system to run and they will not work in 16bit for that same reason.

All the delphi applications here are mainly for providing samples, and not useful for any kind of graphical purpose. Examples of showing how to build an application that has a simple button and a label on it, which when clicked takes you to the internet or let you send an email, and also a basic demonstration of how to implement code in your application that makes it easy to create all possible kinds of shortcuts to the task bar, registry, as well as creating a simple tray icon application and detecting the running operating system. Added three upgraded applications that work with delphi 2010 since I have tested them...

Update: added many more that now work with delphi 2010.

 

Example of an application that detects the running operating system, currently supports detection of:

  • Unknown
  • Windows 95
  • Windows 98
  • Windows 98SE
  • Windows ME
  • Windows NT
  • Windows 2000
  • Windows XP
  • Windows Vista
  • Windows 7
  • Windows 2008
  • Windows 2008 R2
Fully compatible with delphi 2010. Will not work with delphi 7. I will update this application so it will at some point hopefully include every operating system available. As you have already guessed, this one only detects microsoft windows operating systems. Have any code to add for a system not yet in the list, please let me know! A very good use of this one is for installing software that does not run well or at all under some windows version.

An easy example of how to create a delphi application that enables the user to surf the internet or send an email using their default email program with the click of a button or on a label. With the new version of Delphi, this one actually serves no purpose anymore, since there is such a component present already. However for delphi 7 this one still makes sense!

Create a simple but useful and attractive tray icon application in just minutes!

Upgraded version of the application at the bottom, compatible with delphi 7 up until delphi 2010, and in windows 7

Creates shortcuts to the startmenu, desktop and startup menu, I could see this one fit for installing files or uninstalling files, and ofcourse easy access to your program

Tray Icon is an example of a delphi application that, when executed, resides in the system tray and shows a simple popup menu to close, restore and minimize the program. The next version will have an animated icon in the systemtray.

Again just a simple and short sample code of how to include this behaviour into any programming applications or projects you may make. It has no negative side effects or whatsoever to add this form enhancement but only adds to the positive user experience of having the ease to get the window out of view while keeping the program active and running and thus accessible.

Deltree is not a copy or a changed version of the microsoft deltree. It is my own application built specifically in order to be able to delete directories and files without being asked for any confirmation. So be cautious, it will not ask for any options, or confirmations! You have been warned.

  • Usage: Deltree somedir

Get System Type is an example of code that checks under which system it is executed, and based on the result, one can then have actions executed. This sample will at first execution halt on any system, only to show how it could be used. It detects: This is the first version I have created

Create Shortcuts is an application that has 6 buttons, 3 pairs, two for creating and deleting a shortcut to your program in the Start Menu, two for doing that in the Startup section, and two for doing that in the Desktop section of the registry, you can easily see how these could help anyone when a user tries to install or un install your program

Basically a sample program which shows you the system options like programmatically shutting down your system, rebooting, logging off and powering off your system. Note that for shutting down a system, the procedure is lengthy, this is because of the privileges

A very easy example of how to create an application that can be minimized to the system tray and display an animated logo or icon . For credits see the source pascal files.

Application that empties the recyclebin

A small but useful program that demonstrates usage of the topendialog and the tsavedialog, in this case you can open and save any txt or html file but it is easily adapted to anything you wish. Again just a basic sample code

Sample code of a program that checks any input for a valid email address, and tells you whether the text you entered was in fact a valid or an invalid email address, simple but I can see a use for this in my own programs
