In this post, you’ll learn more about HintMouseMessage or DelphiVCL.Application.HintMouseMessage method regulates the display of hint windows. This method is called automatically when the mouse passes over control with a Hint. Applications rarely, if ever, call HintMouseMessage directly. HintMouseMessage is used internally to manage the display of the hint windows.
You can use Python…
In this post, you’ll learn more about FreeOnRelease method or DelphiVCL.Application.FreeOnRelease is used to free the interface reference for components that were created from COM classes. FreeOnRelease is called when an interface implemented by the component is…
In this post, you’ll learn how to use the FreeNotification method or DelphiVCL.Application.FreeNotification to ensure that AComponent is notified that the component is going to be destroyed.
Use FreeNotification to register AComponent as a component that should be…
In this post, you’ll learn more about the GetInterface method or DelphiVCL.Application.GetInterface is used to retrieve a specified interface. GetInterface retrieves the interface designated by a GUID or type name. The basic implementation of GetInterface uses the GUID specified in the IID parameter. If the specified interface is supported by the class, it is returned in the Obj parameter…
In this post, you’ll learn how to use the GetInterfaceEntry method or DelphiVCL.Application.GetInterfaceEntry to return the entry for a specific interface implemented in a class. GetInterfaceEntry returns the class entry for the interface specified by the IID…
In this post, you’ll learn how to use the GetHashCode method or DelphiVCL.Application.GetHashCode is used to return an integer containing the hash code. By default, calling GetHashCode on an object returns an integer representing the virtual address at which the object…

In this post, we’ll use the DialogHandle property or DelphiVCL.Application.DialogHandle provides a mechanism for using non-VCL dialog boxes in an application. Learning how to do it will allow you to easily build GUIs with Python Program Maker.
Use DialogHandle when displaying a modeless dialog box that was created using the CreateDialog API function. Assigning the handle of the modeless…
