Context-sensitive Help for the RPC Broker Components
Editor's NOTE: below is the newer info. The Broker_1_1.chm help file can be downloaded here.
Online Help
Distribution of the BDK includes online help, which provides an overview of development with the RPC Broker (e.g., components, properties, methods, etc.).
The help is distributed in two zip files:
- Broker_1_1.zip (i.e., Broker_1_1.chm)—This zip file contains the standalone online HTML help file. Unzip the contents and double-click on the Broker_1_1.chm file to open the help.
- Broker_1_1-HTML_Files.zip—This zip file contains the associated HTML help files. Unzip the contents in the same directory and double-click on the index.htm file to open the help.
Note NOTE: You may want to make an entry for Broker_1_1.chm in Delphi's Tools Menu, to make it easily accessible from within Delphi. To do this, use Delphi's Tools | Configure Tools option and create a new menu entry.
Editor's note: This information is the older, outdated information
The installation of the BDK automatically makes the RPC Broker context-sensitive help available within Delphi for the RPC Broker components.
You can select any property in the object inspector, press F1, and get help for that property. Also, you can select any of the RPC Broker components on a form, press F1, and get help for the component.
