DAP Pro Benefits
Delphi Application Peeper Pro is one of not numerous tools helping you to debug and test VCL in your applications. It is a new-style debugger and a testing tool working on basis of momentary RTTI snapshot! Where to use it? It is widely applied. If your program does not work properly (people often forget to set event handlers or they mix them up) you can check which handlers are set for component events. If there are mistakes in the component code you can see and determine actual values of properties of any component on your forms. Sometimes it is necessary to view all dynamic modules (DLL) used in your working application. It is easy with the help of DAP. DAP can save a lot of your time if you support and continue to develop large projects. You know how hard it is to recall a unit name for each form/dialogue you see in a working application. Usually you open a project, try to recall the name and then start opening forms one by one until you find the necessary one. With DAP it is enough to click the form in a working application and DAP will show you the unit name you need. Imagine how much time you can save if you are developing several applications at the same time! The main principle of DAP is: do not guess - just view and get to know! DAP is also very useful if you want to get accurate and detail reports from your beta-testers. Give them DAP and you will not need to guess what has happened when a bug appears as testers will be able to send you property values, event handlers, ect.
DAP Lite Benefits
DAP Lite has limited functionality of DAP Pro but it is free. Thus it can be freely distributed with your own software, intended for you and your beta-testers. DAP Lite enables to get most general information on investigated applications and components: a list of used DLL's, a component name and a name of the component class and parent, a list of component ancestors and units they are described in.
