EventSinkImp (Binh Ly/Techvanguards)

EventSinkImp is a utility (comes with full source code for enthusiasts) that allows you to import connection point-based sink events/interfaces for ease of use in Delphi applications. EventSinkImp automatically creates a
non-visual Delphi component that publishes sink methods as normal Delphi events so that you can easily use this component at design-time when building applications that need to sink events from Internet Explorer. See Additional Components for more info.


 

Regmon (www.sysinternals.com) 

Regmon is a Registry monitoring utility that will show you which applications are accessing your Registry, which keys they are accessing, and the Registry data that they are reading and writing - all in real-time. 

Knowing how Internet Explorer uses the registry is helpful when you work with programming the browser in Delphi, and there is no better way to learn about it then using Regmon.

This advanced utility takes you one step beyond what static Registry tools can do, to let you see and understand exactly how programs use the Registry. With static tools you might be able to see what Registry values and keys changed. With Regmon you'll see how the values and keys changed..

 


 

COM Object Viewer  (www.microsoft.com)

 

The OLE/COM Object Viewer is a developer- and power-user-oriented administration and testing tool. With the OLE/COM Object Viewer you can:

  • Browse, in a structured way, all of the Component Object Model (COM) classes installed on your machine.
  • See the registry entries for each class in an easy-to-read format.
  • Configure any COM class (including Java-based classes!) on your system. This includes Distributed COM activation and security settings.
  • Configure systemwide COM settings, including enabling or disabling DCOM.
  • Test any COM class, simply by double-clicking its name. The list of interfaces that class supports will be displayed. Double-clicking an interface entry allows you to invoke a viewer that will "exercise" that interface.
  • Activate COM classes locally or remotely. This is great for testing DCOM setups.
  • View type library contents. Use this to figure out what methods, properties, and events an ActiveX® Control supports!
  • Copy a properly formatted OBJECT tag to the clipboard for inserting into an HTML document.
