The technology described in the previous chapter is very difficult to use, it requires many additional manipulations and fine adjustments. In short, it's best not to mess with her. Starting with version 3.00, an alternative mechanism for compressing the code for the initial construction of the form was proposed for MCK.

 

All you need to do is enable the FormCompact property for the TKOLForm component and recompile the project. The code that does the creation of the form is also roughly halved, but approximately 1K byte of additional code is added to provide property setting and parsing of the bytecode generated in this mode. In fact, it is also an interpreter, as in the case of collapse, but provided with a few more small functions.

 

As a result, if the construction of the form took less than 2 KB, there will be no noticeable reduction in the code (but it may increase). Savings will take place in the case of a very large number of components (especially visual) on the form, and / or a large number of forms. In general, FormCompact was developed for this case.
