TBufIndex is a TObject descendant which defines the interface used to implement indexes in TBufDataset. TBufIndex provides access to the Dataset with field values for the index, and methods to perform record navigation and index maintenance.
TBufIndex contains many virtual and abstract methods that should be implemented in a descendent class which provides a specific index implementation, such as: TDoubleLinkedBufIndex, TUniDirectionalBufIndex, and TArrayBufIndex.
TBufIndex is the type used for the TBufDataset.BufferIndex property.
|
Implements an index using a doubly-linked list |
|
|
Implements a uni-directional index |
|
|
Implements an index using an array of record buffers |
