DESCRIPTION

Are you an OWL programmer frustrated by shallow coverage of OWL topics in current documentation? Core OWL 5.0 takes you well beyond the "Hello, world" level. Concentrating on the central features and classes of the OWL framework, this book dives under the surface and into the OWL source code itself. You'll see what new capabilities OWL 5.0 offers the OWL programmer. You'll gain a deeper understanding of what OWL does on your behalf such as the OWL messaging system and its message maps.

What's inside:

  • How to use TModule and TApplication
  • Making sense of OWL message handling
  • Making use of both standard and custom controls
  • Customizing gadgets and gadget windows
  • A look at TWindow, TFrameWindow and Tdialog
  • Frequent (and some infrequent) questions and answers
  • WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY ABOUT THIS BOOK...

    "...the reader walks up to the water, dips in a toe, sees that all is well and ventures in deeper. How different from the vendor documentation where the reader is immediately sucked down 20 feet!"
    --James Panozzi, Software Developer, Minet Co.

    "This is a very good book! The author knows his stuff and his appreciation and enjoyment of OWL are evident."
    --Gre Reese, Ph.D., Logicon Technical Services

    ABOUT THE AUTHOR...
