Place the created frame in the panel in the run time

I know how to create frame in the design time and place it in the panel in the runtime in Delphi. As for C++ Builder, It looked difficult as I am not familiar with C++ scripts. Please advise how to do the right way?

Thanks in advance

Solution

  • The solution is the exact same as in Delphi, you just need to use C++ syntax instead.

    Something like this should work:

    /*
Assuming your frame is located in a unit called Frame1, and it's 
called TMyFrameType, this is what you should add your Form unit
cpp file.
*/

#include "Frame1.h"

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
__fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
  : TForm(Owner)
{
  // This assumes you have a panel in this form called "ThePanelWhereIWantIt".
  // You could move the MyFrameInstance to the class definition, if you need to 
  // access it somewhere after in your form code, but this is trivial.
  TMyFrameType *MyFrameInstance;  
  MyFrameInstance         = new TMyFrameType(ThePanelWhereIWantIt);
  MyFrameInstance->Parent = ThePanelWhereIWantIt;
  MyFrameInstance->Align  = alClient;
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
