About:
The package contains two controls — TDateTimePicker and TDBDateTimePicker.
Delphi's VCL has a control named TDateTimePicker, which I find very useful for editing dates. LCL, however, does not have this control. Instead, for editing dates LCL has a control named TDateEdit, but I prefer the VCL's TDateTimePicker. Therefore, I tried to create a cross-platform Lazarus control which would resemble VCL's TDateTimePicker as much as possible. The TDateTimePicker control does not use native Win control, but it descends from LCL's TCustomControl to be cross-platform.
TDBDateTimePicker is a data-aware version of TDateTimePicker, with nice way of handling null database values.
