PSetting is a component set for Delphi 2, 3 and 4. It simplifies the process of maintaining your application settings between runs. Users like things to stay the same. When you finish using an application, you have created a state for the application which consists of things like: window positions, dockable toolbar locations, font colors and sizes, etc. The next time you use that application, you want to be able to start right where you left it. You don't want to have to set up your work environment all over again! This is the goal of PSetting -- to automate application state management.

You could go crazy writing all of the code required to save application state. Instead of doing it yourself, let PSetting do the work for you.

Here's some of what PSetting can do for you:
  • Save form positions, sizes, and states
  • Maintain most-recently-used (MRU) file lists
  • Store component properties that can change at runtime, such as:
    1. Grid column widths and row heights
    2. Edit control text
    3. Header control item widths
    4. Page control selected tab
    5. Dockable toolbar locations
  • Provide mechanisms for you to create powerful options dialog boxes
  • Automatically restart your application after a Windows shutdown
  • Automatically encrypt sensitive items
The above list is certainly not exhaustive, PSetting can save any property of any component by any vendor -- including hidden properties. Not only that, but PSetting gives you flexibility over when and where state information is saved. Choose the Registry for general application state information. Choose any TStream or any IStorage (OLE structured storage or compound document) file to save document-related information. Or, write your own storage mechanism using PSetting's event-based storage.
