I have a pretty simple component that has a panel containing a groupbox
with radio buttons within it. I would like to surface the groupboxes
height and width properties so they can be changed in the object inspector.
Whats the best way to do this? I can't find anything about this in the
component writers guide.

write their values. Eg.;
class TMyControl: public TWhatEverBase {
protected:
void __fastcall SetGroupBoxHeight(int Value);
int __fastcall GetGroupBoxHeight();
void __fastcall SetGroupBoxWidth(int Value);
int __fastcall GetGroupBoxWidth();
__published:
__property int GroupBoxHeight={
read=GetGroupBoxHeight,
write=SetGroupBoxHeight
};
__property int GroupBoxWidth={
read=GetGroupBoxWidth,
write=SetGroupBoxWidth
};
};

Cheers Ralph,
What I meant was I couldn't find anywhere it describes publishing nested
components properties.

probably not what you want to do in this case, here goes;
class TMyControl: public TWhatEverBase {
protected:
TGroupBox* FGroupBox;
TPersistent* __fastcall GetGroupBox() {
return FGroupBox;
}
void __fastcall SetGroupBox(TPersistent* Value) {
// not implemented
}
public:
__fastcall TMyControl(TComponent* Owner);
inherited(Owner),
FGroupBox(new TGroupBox(this))
{
}
__published:
__property TPersistent* GroupBox={read=GetGroupBox,write=SetGroupBox};
};
