Description

TCustomLocateFileService is the base class for components that control access to files in a WebSnap application. TCustomLocateFileService defines events that indicate where to locate a requested file or that supply a stream object from which to read the contents of a file. By using a TCustomLocateFileService descendant, a WebSnap application can adjust to differences in the way files are deployed or even to use different files, depending on the current Web context.

Do not create instances of TCustomLocateFileService. All of the events it introduces are protected, and so unavailable to your application. Instead, use a TCustomLocateFileService descendant, such as TLocateFileService, which publishes those events.
