    <p>You can prepare "start IDE" (and possibly "build") scripts for your projects and maintain them as project evolves in repository.</p> <p>Regardless of your decision about keeping components in separate repositories and using externals, or including them in a single repository with possible branching, you should also include compiled bpl files for every component build and for every branch prepared for a specific Delphi version.</p> <p>You should definitely try to keep most (if not all) of paths relative, in a worst case use environment variables to point to your root project dir.</p> <p>Start IDE script allows you to keep each project and Delphi version environment spearately configured on a single Windows installation.</p> <p>It should include necessary registry keys for your project and Delphi:</p> <pre><code>Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [-${DelphiRegKey}\Disabled Packages] [-${DelphiRegKey}\Known Packages] [-${DelphiRegKey}\Library] [${DelphiRegKey}\Known Packages] "$(BDS)\\Bin\\dclstd${CompilerVersion}.bpl"="Borland Standard Components" "$(BDS)\\Bin\\dclie${CompilerVersion}.bpl"="Internet Explorer Components" "$(BDS)\\Bin\\dcldb${CompilerVersion}.bpl"="Borland Database Components" (...) "${CustomComponentPack}"="Custom Components" [${DelphiRegKey}\Library] "Search Path"="${YourLibrarySourceFolder1};${YourLibrarySourceFolder2}" (...) </code></pre> <p>You can then prepare batch file:</p> <pre><code>regedit /s project.reg %DelphiPath%\bin\bds -rProjectRegKey Project.dpr </code></pre> <p>Where <code>${DelphiRegKey}</code> is <code>HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland(or CodeGear in newer versions)\ProjectRegKey</code>.</p> <p>Basically it is easier when you will dump your current working configuration from registry, strip it from unnecessary keys, change paths to relative and then adapt to make it work with your project.</p> <p>In such configuration, switching between projects and their branches which have different sets of components (and/or possibly using different Delphi version) is a matter of checking out a repository only and running the script.</p>

    1. COI use something along these lines. At least it allows you to easily reconfigure Delphi for various purposes.

    2. COAre you using this type of setup today? It does sounds interesting. The 'environment' then would be a project (reg script+bpls) and be versionized as well... This could be an 'svn-external' to a particular environment revision in the project(s) which use them. Then as the environment changes (Delphi service pack, component added or updated) then the ennvironment would be committed separately and referencing projects upgraded as needed. (with svn-external always referencing a particular rev #) Hmmm...this does open things up quite a bit! Will need to chew on this for a while... THANKS.

    3. COI am using this setup for quite a few projects, build scripts are prepared on per-project basis. Unfortunately it does not take care of Delphi patches - yet Delphi is the only dependency which actually needs to be installed on a machine except TortoiseSVN (or TortoiseGIT maybe) and some copy protected libraries, Woll2Woll's InfoPower is the only I know of which complains about not being installed in a system using the installer by... hanging IDE while loading. Shame on them.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
