Below is a screenshot of the Embarcadero’s Code Central web repository. Need to be able to capture the information contained on these we pages without copying and pasting. That level of task is tedious to say the least. A certain amount of errors can be attributed to such and effort.
I wrote a Delphi program that will access the Code Central articles fields and place them in a table.
The intermediate record structure is as follows:
[codesyntax lang=”delphi”]
proj_info = record
ArtNo: string;
Prod: String;
ProjType: String;
ProjUrl: String;
ProjDesc: String;
Ts: string;
Ndl: string;
Size: string;
end;
[/codesyntax]
The web page contents are stored as HTML. The application establishes boundaries for the articles contents then each article detected is placed in a table for subsequent utilization.
Here is a report that reflects the tabled information.
