Chapter 21: Dynamic Link Libraries Chapter 22: Graphics Programming. In this chapter, we'll mostly work with VCL classes that encapsulate GDI functionality. Chapter 23: Creating Win32 API Applications. In this chapter you'll see how to create and work with windows at the API level, which is something that you should at least begin to understand if you want to create your own components, great VCL applications, or multimedia applications and games using OpenGL or DirectX. Chapter 24: Component Development Essentials. This chapter (and the following two chapters) will try to give you all the information you need to successfully create components. Chapter 25: Customizing Existing Components Chapter 26: Advanced Component Programming. In this chapter, you're going to see how to create two fairly complex components.
