How can I create Esri SHP files?
To write vector data like Shape files you need the THBVector object. You can fill it with data either by loading existing vector files or by manually populating it with data. Use the THBVector.SaveToFile method to write out the data. Shape files can consist of multiple files. The SHP file contains the geometry. The dbf file contains additional attributes for each geometry object and a SHX index file. You can use the FileFormatSettings properties to affect which files are generated.
