[DUG]: access speed

2000-08-29 Thread Juan Manuel Gomez Ramos
Hello Delphians: I'm on a project that uses huge matrices (at about 500x1000 items) and I was wondering if the usual pascal data type "array" is actually the fastest structure (concerning to access speed) available to store data this way. It might not be so, and maybe somebody have

Re: [DUG]: access speed

2000-08-29 Thread Nello Sestini
if the matrices have a large number of zeros there are (sometimes) better ways to represent them than arrays. This has nothing to do with Delphi/Pascal and is an interesting subject on it's own.The topic is called "sparse matrices" - "sparse" meaning that there are only a few non-zero

2000-08-29 Thread Juan Manuel Gomez Ramos
I know about sparse matrices and I have some of them in the project. But, some others, are very dense matrices and for them, I was looking for the best way to store the data, allowing maximum access speed. And THAT is my question. Thanks anyway. Regards, Juanma. On Tue, 29 Aug 2000, Nello

Have a look at IShellLink. ShellLink := CreateComObject(CLSID_ShellLink) as IShellLink; PersistFile := ShellLink as IPersistFile; OleCheck(PersistFile.Load(PWideChar('MyLink.lnk'), STGM_READ)); You can then get all the information about the link including path.

Nello, I believe there is a IShellLink function called GetPath. I have never used it so don't know if it could help, but might be worth a try. BTW Cheers for the Pixel to MM function. Works well. James -Original Message- From: Nello Sestini [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday,

This has no doubt been asked many times, a search on the internet and on the Borland site and on the D5 CD has proved useless however. I wish to install D5 enterprise onto the same computer as my D4 enterprise and have them BOTH work. Is there anything that I need to be aware of before I start
