I've looked a lot for information about this subject. But i didn't
find a post about techniques to avoid recompiling. Let's say my
aplication is A.EXE and that this app, depends on the package B.BPL
Can anyone tell me techniques to avoid recompiling A.EXE when i... :

- Add new source to B.BPL units?
- Modify B.BPL?

In other way, What kind of modifications on B.BPL will make me
recompile A.EXE.

If i know some of these techniques i will be able to avoid recompiling
as much as posible.

What is more probable : the need of recompiling a package ? or the need
of recompiling a DLL?

What about B.BPL depending on C.BPL?. Do you know techniques about
avoiding recompling B.BPL if i previously modified C.BLP?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

My understanding is that BPLs are libraries and thus don't require that
you recompile your code when the library changes but your code will
still required linking. To avoid compiling your source in the IDE
choose the "Make" option instead of the "Build" option.

Does that solve your problem?
