    The Drag and Drop Component Suite version 5.0

    I’m pleased to finally announce the release of version 5 of the Drag and Drop Component Suite.

    The core changes in this version includes:

    • Full Unicode support.
    • Supports Delphi 2009 and Delphi 2010.
    • 6 new example applications.
    • The DragDetectPlus function now behaves nicely on controls that use popup menus.
    • Improved support for drag/drop to and from Outlook.

    Note: Version 5 has been released. This post is obsolete.

    This page contains the most recent development snapshot of version 5 of the Drag and Drop Component Suite. Updated 2009-02-08.

    If no major problems are found with this release it will probably be the last snapshot before final release.

    The focus for version 5.0 is Unicode support. The plan is to be completely Unicode capable and compatible with Delphi 2009 and older versions of Delphi.

    The core changes from version 4.2 includes:

    • Delphi 2009 (Unicode) compatibility.
    • PIDLs are no longer stored in strings and string lists.
    • The Netscape data formats has been deprecated.
    • Classes that deal with strings have been renamed to indicate if they deal with ansi or unicode data.
    • The Shell Context Menu component has been rewritten.
    • Lots of minor bug fixes.
