Delphi Programming the outstanding Auxiliary tool-gexperts

As we all know, the Delphi language function is quite powerful, because it has the very good expansibility, therefore many companies, the team and the individual developed the Auxiliary Delphi Programming tool software. Gexperts is such a free and excellent software (in my impression, it seems that only the rxlib and Mwedit in the control pack can match). Gexperts is a Delphi extension software, also known as experts, I now use the version is 0.97.1, the latest version of the relevant information can go to its website to see: www.GExperts.com.

After downloading, execute the installation program, and then enter the Delphi (before installing Gexperts, please close the running Delphi), you will find in the Delphi menu bar added a menu item: Gexperts, there are a lot of submenu below it, let us look at each.

1. Procedure list: Process listing. The lack of Delphi in the editing window, such as VB in the top Object-event procedure list. This function is to a certain extent to make up for this.

This window is a pretty detailed list of all the processes and functions in the window you're using, and you can navigate directly to the code for the procedure or function by double-clicking the mouse. In addition, you can copy the code of the process to the Clipboard, which is especially useful when writing related technical documents. You can also use the "Search" option to quickly find the desired function to save the trouble of scrolling up and down, which is useful if you have a large number of process functions in your window or library of functions.

2. Expert Manager: Expert management. A feature that allows you to easily manage all of the expert installed.

3. Grep Search: Query. In the development of larger programs, we often need to search for a certain content in the program, Delphi itself with the query function is not strong enough, and gexperts this grep can accomplish more tasks. As shown in Figure 2, first enter the content you want to find, then in the options you can select whether the content is case-sensitive, whether the annotation content is ignored, whether the integer mode is searched, whether to search the DFM file, whether to search using an expression (an expression search is a powerful feature of grep); Option you can also choose whether to select only the current file, whether to search all the files in the project, whether to search the file open now, whether to search the entire directory, if you choose to search the entire directory, then there are a lot of directory settings for you to choose from.
