Step 1: Download and install the Network Component

Download Network Component from the ActiveXperts Download Site and start the installation. The installation guides you through the installation process.

Step 2: Create a new Delphi Project

Launch Borland Delphi from the Start menu. Choose 'New' from the 'File' menu and select your preferred kind of application, for instance: 'VCL Forms Application - Delphi for Win32'. A new Form is displayed in the workspace.

Step 3: Refer to the Network Component Library and create the objects

Now that a new project has been created, you must add a reference to Network Component in the project to be able to use the Network Component object. To do so, choose 'Import Component...' from the 'Component' menu. The Import Components' dialog appears. Select 'Import a Type Library':

In the 'Registered Type Libraries' page, select 'Network Component 4.4 Type Library' and click 'Next':

In the 'Components' page, leave all fields default and click 'Next':

In the 'Install' page, select 'Create Unit' and click 'Next':

The interface code is generated now and is shown in the AxNetwork_TLB tab of the project.

Step 4: Declare and create the object

From the Project Manager, open Unit1.bas and add the AxNetwork_TLB to the 'Uses' statement to refer to the Network Component library:

In the 'private' or 'public' section, declare the following objects:

objUdp    : ITUdp

You can now create the objects, for instance in the 'FormCreate' function:

objUdp     := TUdp.Create(Form1).DefaultInterface;
