About the LDEF's
----------------
My LDEF's were written as experiments into new formats for displaying data. I
think the Icon LDEF's are ideal for use in a prefs box, and the others may be
useful also.
The commenting is minimal, but so is the functionality in an LDEF. I think that
examination should reveal what you need to know. Use the LDEF source to write
your own, or just use the compiled resources for your app.
Changes since first release
---------------------------
These have been touched up, so the bugs that I heard about are gone:
* The HiliteMode problem was one that has plagued me ever since
I started using a custom MacHeaders file. I have changed the
cell hiliting code to use accessor functions.
* Incorrect management of the Handle states is fixed. The original
code incorrectly initialized their HState fields, and would call
SetHState() with bad data (it crashed only sparingly). This bug
was a carryover from the original LDEF by Steve Falkenberg, which
my code was based on.
* Fixed the documentation and updated the projects to SC7.04
Stuff and Bother...
-------------------
I used to recommend that users send bug reports to /dev/null... but have since
changed my mind. Drop me a line, tell me your troubles, and I will see about
fixing you up.
The only thing I could ask is that you post, or at least send me, any LDEFs you
make based on this. I dont need recognition or cash... cuz I didnt write em for
that.
Share and Enjoy...
