|
|
I need to have someone do some custom programming for me, but I only want
him to have the source to the form/unit he is working with. Assuming he has
the components he needs can I just give him compile DCUs of all the other
parts of the project?
Do I also need to include DFMs for the compiled units?
Is there another way to accomplish this?
Thanks

James,
We do this. Basically, we use CVS version control and provide modules
to which the developer has access. On our end, we simply copy the files
that they need access to the module directory. We manage getting the
file into the primary project on our end.
We started out emailing things back and forth and as work increased,
this became more difficult to manage. You really need some sort of
versioning system in place for this to work well.

You could consider using a code obfuscator for the bits you don't want them
to access.
I've got no idea if one exists for Delphi though.

Try it - it should be easy enough to test what is needed for
compilation.

ok I did. You need both DCU and DFM files.
