Designing with Interfaces
Interfaces do not require COM! This presentation reviews Delphi's Interface type syntax and internal implementation and how to use this language construct to design more robust applications at any scale. If you've ever heard of abstraction and isolation from implementation details, this is it. Presented at BorCon99, Delphi Developers of Dallas MiniBorCon, and BorCon99 Australia. |

Reading Tea Leaves
(And Other Advanced Debugging Techniques) To find the cause of a problem in your program, you have to get inside the mind of the processor. You have to understand its motivations, its urges, its wants and desires. You have to speak its language, see as it sees, think as it thinks. You must be one with the Force. Presented at BorCon99, Delphi Developers of Dallas MiniBorCon, and BorCon99 Australia. |
