Welcome to the Dev Direct Top 10 developer tool and software component categories - our most visited categories over the last 30 days. This list is updated every weekday morning.


1. Button - C/C++ Button Controls allow you to create push buttons for your applications to replace the Windows button control to create visually enhanced buttons with a variety of different styles, shapes and capabilities.
2. Code Obfuscation - Protect the intellectual property contained in your source code and PCode whilst improving the performance of your application by running it through an obfuscator. Remove comments, change variable names and generally make them more difiicult to decompile and reverse engineer.
3. Debugging & Profiling - Use profilers to help track down performance bottlenecks and the causes of errors in your code.
