Tool to convert form components to run-time and vice-versa

Recommended Posts

I seem to recall seeing someone post about a tool they wrote that converts components dropped on a form into equivalent code that creates the same components at runtime, and possibly vice versa.

 

IIRC, the context was something talking about the automated testability of forms, and/or avoiding problems with source control tools.

 

I'd like to get hold of that tool for some testing.

GExperts. Once installed you'll see the Component to Code menu item when you right click on any components on a form at design time.

While the Component to code expert works with many controls, it does by no means support every single one. But it's good enough for most use cases.
