- Hi .Eric, (why the point??)
-
- I read your link to Doug about InsideOut and MacApp. In my application I use
- this combination now for a half year, but I didn´t implemented a generic
- TDatabase class because every file (table) has different features and need
- often a totaly different handling. At the beginning I thought I could implement
- generic methods e.g. to list a selection on the screen, or a TDBRecord works
- with a TDialogView together in a way: ReadFromFile, SetFieldsFromView,
- GetFieldsFromView, isModified, WriteToFile.
-
- With a database you can do so many different task that I could not imagine how
- I should implement a TDatabase class with more complex methods than the
- routines of ISO itself. So I implemented all ISO callings in a conventional
- way. My TSpecialDialogs classes knows how to get a record from a file in detail
- an uses direct ISO calls.
-
- But I am highly interested how did you implemented your TDataBase, TDBDoc
- objects. Is TDataBase a class that simple implements all ISO-routines as
- methodes without any modifications of their parameters and functionality? Has
- this any advantages in respect with direct calls?
-
- Kind regards,
- Tommi GESSL,

-
- PS: I translated MA´ rez files into german language. A disk with it is on the
- way to MADA europe. I think you will get it next week.
