Source Code
|
As CnxManager is released under the MPL 1.1, its source code is
available for download.
However, you must comply with the terms of the License if you intend to
use the source code. A full copy of the MPL is available here: http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/MPL-1.1.html
Moreover, you will need to install a few additionnals components before
being able to compile the source code.
It is compiling under Delphi 6, and makes heavy
use of the Jedi VCL which you will find here : http://jvcl.sourceforge.net
As I am a member of the JVCL development team, I am using the latest
JVCL 3 preview. You will have to get this version from
http://jvcl.sourceforge.net/daily
in order to compile CnxManager
In order to connect to the network, I used the Internet Component Suite
by François Piette, which you will need to download and install
from here: http://overbyte.delphicenter.com.
If the error messages from ICS don't get translated, be sure to use the
latest
version as I made some changes in it too.
After having installed all this, you should be able to compile the
source code and make some modifications in there, if you need to. As
required
per the MPL, you must send these changes back to me. If you do so,
please
include a description of what you changed, including the reason,
preferably in the form of a diff file (diff -u).
To get a first understanding to the source code, you should refer to
the PDF files containing the class diagrams for CnxManager. These files
are available from the CVS repository under the doc/Rose subfolder
For this project, I've developped a specific Frame that allows the
user to select the current language and simplifies the life of the
developper
by virtually requiring him to just drop the frame on a form. More
details
are available here.
