{
So what we need:
1. drop on your form a RichEdit component from win32 page of component
palette
2. in OnCreate event of your form write the next code:
}
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var
mask: Word;
begin
mask := SendMessage(Handle, EM_GETEVENTMASK, 0, 0);
SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_SETEVENTMASK, 0, mask or ENM_LINK);
SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_AUTOURLDETECT, Integer(True), 0);
RichEdit1.Text := 'SwissDelphiCenter.com: '#13#10 +
' Site is located at www.SwissDelphiCenter.com';
end;
{
After that your Richedit will convert automatically any URLs in highlighted
(blue color and underlined). Even if you'll start to enter any text directly
in Richedit, any begings for URL will be converted too (not only existing
text string but new too)
}
// 3. now we must detect mouse clicks in URL range. For this task we must
// override WndProc method of our form:
type
TForm1 = class(TForm)
protected
procedure WndProc(var Message: TMessage); override;
end;
// 4. the implementation looks like this:
procedure TForm1.WndProc(var Message: TMessage);
var
p: TENLink;
strURL: string;
begin
if (Message.Msg = WM_NOTIFY) then
begin
if (PNMHDR(Message.lParam).code = EN_LINK) then
begin
p := TENLink(Pointer(TWMNotify(Message).NMHdr)^);
if (p.Msg = WM_LBUTTONDOWN) then
begin
SendMessage(RichEdit1.Handle, EM_EXSETSEL, 0, Longint(@(p.chrg)));
strURL := RichEdit1.SelText;
ShellExecute(Handle, 'open', PChar(strURL), 0, 0, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
end
end
end;
inherited;
end;
{
5. Now you can compile your project (don't forget to include Richedit and
ShellAPI units in uses clause).
