Presentation and Compound Document framework concepts

The Compound Document framework expands this to provide support for embedding differing types of data in a single compound document and for linking these documents with hypermedia mechanisms. The classes developed in the Compound Document framework enable you to create and manage these compound documents.

The Compound Document framework introduces many new classes. Of these new classes the five most significant are:

• TCompoundDocument
• TModelPresenterState
• TModelSelection
• TModel
• TDocumentComponent
