| Summary | 0005990: Add support for registering DCU path when installing both JCL and JVCL | ||||
| Description | In order to place DCU-files also in a centralized way like with BPL and DCP files, support is needed to register the path to the place where DCU files should be placed. If possible, short-hand notation like $(DCU) is wanted (in case defined in the setup) | ||||

That change should be made very carefully. The JVCL Installer deletes all *.dcu files in its DCU-Output directory that don't belong to the current JVCL source code base. So if you point the DCU output directory to a "shared" directory, this directory will only contain the JVCL *.dcu files after the installation. All other *.dcu files will be deleted. |
|
|
Well, if a restriction about starting all .pas files (.dcu) with jv(cl) or jcl, then, when changes are done, you could restrict the delete to jv(cl)*.dcu and jcl*.dcu so any others are kept. |
|
|
That wouldn't hold for something like "jvalue.pas" that doesn't have anything to do with the JVCL. That "clean up" code must be deactivated when compiling to a different DCU output directory. But then we are back at a mix of old and new *.dcu files causing trouble when compiling applications (that's why this clean up code was introduced) |
|
|
I'm sorry, but I don't see the point for this. I mean, if you don't want to recompile the DCUs everytime, simply add the DCP path to your search path. |
