I got a few comments about people implementing the TInterfacedDateModule from my post Delphi – Using FastMM4 part 2: TDataModule descendants exposing interfaces, or the introduction of a TInterfacedDataModule.
After applying the ideas, and reloading the datamodules in Delphi, some of you got datamodules that looked like forms in the designer. I’ve not seen this behaviour in the IDE myself, but it must be a bug somewhere.
I should have been clearer when writing about the solution for frames looking like forms in the designer from my post Delphi – Frames as visual Components – changing your inheritance: that solution also applies to datamodules. I hinted on that by writing This is caused by the fact that the IDE […] does not recognize as a designable class like TFrame or TDataModule, but only covered the TFrame case.
So time to cover the or TDataModule case as well. :-)
