Format:Paperback
Not just a (very) good book for component development issues, this book is for anyone who is looking for the extra insight that is usually lacking in the more general texts. I particularly liked it for the way it advocates a very rational (note the small 'r') common-sense approach in terms of building anything with OOP, applications as well as components. In all, very readable, yet very good on the relevant technical detail. Key sections are on the VCL architecture, Property Streaming, RTTI, (Windows) Message issues and the open tools API. For best practise component development, I reckon this is the best place to start.

Best Delphi book I have seen! 21 Mar 1997
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Delphi Component Design, is by far the best Delphi book,
I have seen. I have all of the Borland Press Books, as well as several(10+) other Delphi books. All of these books have there strong points but nothing compares to this Book! It covers RTTI, and Code Optimization better than any other book. To sum it up, this book starts were the other books left off.

Must read for VCL Architecture 8 Feb 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
A book in search for two years. Back to 1995 when I started to dive into VCL source code. A question popped into my mind that why Borland did not document the architecture of VCL ? I had read numerous books. Delphi Component Design is it. You can not read VCL source code without it. It saved me tons of hours.
