ZylTimer 1.17
Delphi & C++Builder Component

ZylTimer is a high resolution, long-term Delphi & C++Builder timer component which provides a higher precision than the standard Delphi / C++ Builder TTimer component.
TTimer component which ships with Delphi & C++Builder uses the Windows Message Queue to generate the OnTimer event. Due to this approach it's impossible to get accurate timer intervals smaller than 50 milliseconds.
ZylTimer is a thread based timer and due to this architecture provides a higher precision between 1 and 2 milliseconds, which is inevitable in time critical applications.
The standard TTimer component uses the SetTimer API function, so the interval is limited to 2147483647 milliseconds (about 25 days). ZylTimer is a thread based timer and the interval could be set even to hundred years if necessary.

The demo version is fully functional in Delphi and C++Builder IDE, but it displays a nag dialog (the licensed version will, of course, not have a nag dialog and will not be limited to the IDE). The package includes demo programs for Delphi and C++Builder and a help file with the description of the component.

Installation:
If you have a previous version of the component installed, you must remove it completely before installing this version. To remove a previous installation, proceed as follows:
-Start the IDE, open the packages page by selecting Component - Install Packages
-Select ZylTimerPack package in the list and click the Remove button
-Open Tools - Environment Options - Library and remove the library path pointing to ZyTimer folder
-Close the IDE
-Browse to the folder where your bpl and dcp files are located (default is $(DELPHI)\Projects\Bpl for Delphi, $(BCB)\Projects\Bpl for C++ Builder). -Delete all of the files related to ZylTimer
-Delete or rename the top folder where ZylTimer is installed
-Start regedit (click Start - Run, type "regedit.exe" and hit Enter). Open the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\<compiler>\<version>\Palette and delete all name/value items in the list related to ZylTimer. (<compiler> is either "Delphi" or "C++Builder", <version> is the IDE version you have installed)

-Unzip the zip file and open the ZylTimerPack.dpk file in Delphi (ZylTimerPack.bpk file in C++Builder), compile and install it
and add to Tools/Environment Options/Library (in Delphi/C++Builder menu) the path of the installation (where the ZylTimer.dcu or ZylTimer.dcuil file is located). The component will be added to the "Zyl Soft" tab of the component palette. After you have the component on your component palette, you can drag and drop it to any form, where you can set its properties by the Object Inspector and you can write event handlers selecting the Events tab of the Object Inspector and double clicking the preferred event.

-It is indicated to use this component with "Stop on Delphi exception" option deactivated. You can do this from Delphi / C++Builder menu, "Tools/Debugger Options/Language Exceptions/Stop on Delphi exceptions", otherwise you will have a break at all the handled exceptions
-Avoid to use time consuming code in the OnTimer event, but if it's necessary, run it in a differnet thread.
