Talk:Library

Here is an example library path for XE2 with Raize CodeSite and NexusDB components installed:

$(DELPHI)\lib\$(Platform)\release;C:\Program Files\Raize\CS5\Lib\RS-XE2\Win32;d:\vcl\NexusDB3\Delphi16

If you change 'release' to $(Config) you may find that certain resource files (e.g. controls.res) are not found because they are only available in the release folder, not in the debug folder.

Response

So one thing users should do is to ensure that the release directory either is in the Library path or will be resolved by at least one variable in the Library path. Do you agree?

Library path doc incorrect explanation

In the description of the "Library path" option, the current explanation includes:

"Specifies search paths where the compiler can find the source files for the package."

So far as I can tell, the library path is NOT where the compiler finds source code, but rather where it looks for precompiled units (.dcu files), and dcp files for bpls.
