Programming the Paradox Engine: C++ Windows Applications tells you everything you need to know to make your Paradox business applications faster and more functional with C++.
First, the authors explain how to access and fine-tune the Paradox engine to speed up an application. Then, they provide a "just-in-time tutorial" filled with performance routines and extensive source code examples that demonstrate the advantages of using C++ to develop Paradox applications. A virtual gold mine of ready-to-use code is included for the following problem-solving routines: extending the Borland Object Windows Library (OWL) to allow access to Paradox tables, validity checking during data entry, planning an object-oriented application, writing a Windows-compliant User Interface, Performing single-table queries and displaying the results, and linking tables in a parent-child relation to maintain referential integrity.
