What is DelphiX?

Problem/Question/Abstract:

What is DelphiX?

Answer:

DelphiX is a very good DirectX implementation with 12 visual components for the Delphi versions 3, 4 and 5. The componets were programmed by Hiroyuki Hori (his homepage:  http://www.yks.ne.jp/~hori/index-e.html). DelphiX supports all DirectX technologies (DirectDraw, Direct3D, DirectPlay, DirectInput...) to program high performance graphic applications with Delphi.

This components are:

TDXDraw                                - DirectDraw surface for graphic output
TDXDIB                                - DIB-Image
TDXImageList                - Imagelist of DIB-Images
TDX3D                                        - Direct3D support for TDXDraw surface
TDXSound                        - DirectSound support
TDXWave                                - Soundfile-component for DirectSound
TDXWaveList                - Soundfile-list
TDXInput                                - DirectInput, controller support
TDXPlay                                - DirectPlay, for multiplayer network games
TDXSpriteEngine        - Spriteengine for DirectDraw-surface
TDXTimer                        - High-performance Timer
TDXPaintBox                - Like TPaintbox but faster
