Description

TMasterDataLink is a TDatalink descendent which handles master-detail relations. It can be used in TDataset descendents that must have master-detail functionality: the detail dataset creates an instance of TMasterDataLink to point to the master dataset, which is subsequently available through the TDataLink.Dataset property.

The class also provides functionality for keeping a list of fields that make up the master-detail functionality, in the TMasterDatalink.FieldNames and TMasterDataLink.Fields properties.

This class should never be used in application code.
