Docking Example

[Dave Novo 51]

Hello all,

 

If you go to the Delphi help

 

Docking (Delphi) - RAD Studio Code Examples (embarcadero.com)

 

You see if refers to a "docking demo". The general help for the built is docking is woefully inadequate.

 

If you go to 

RAD Studio Code Examples (embarcadero.com)

 

You find that the code examples are supposed to be at 

Embarcadero Technologies · GitHub

or

GitHub - Embarcadero/RADStudio11Demos: Delphi and C++Builder Demos for Embarcadero RAD Studio version 11

 

I cannot find a docking demo in either location. Has this been removed from the demos? Or am I just going crazy and its really there. Searching the github for the work "dock" and also cloning the repo and searching for "dock" does not turn up any files

I found a demo project at https://github.com/Walibeiro/DockDemo. And a 9 page article that Brian Long wrote, titled Drag & Dock, published in issue 63 (November 2000) of The Delphi Magazine.

 

I did not find anything more recent. I don't recall any significant changes to docking in the Delphi VCL. It has also been 9 years since I worked on an application with dockable forms.

There is also a very old version on SourceForge: Rad Studio Code Examples Code

When I first learn about docking, I view these two  Alister Christie's videos
