.dkp package file for Delphi

[vennexedu]

Is there a future plan to create a .dpk package file for Delphi? Or does anyone know how to create one? I am not sure I can just use the .pas file for Lazarus. I tried to mimic what the .lpk file does in Delphi 11.3, but ran into a whole lot of dependency issues. For instance, I needed to install BDE and NexusDB locally. I'd like to use mORMot2 in a .bpl file. Great library, btw!

AFAIR Delphi packages are not the same thing as Lazarus packages.
What is wrong with adding the paths to the project? Or do you have any trouble when compiling mORMot in a bpl?

There may be some problems at runtime, due to some global/shared memory structures like RTTI cache.
Perhaps more a topic for discussion in our forum.
I guess some users have already experimented running mORMot 2 within packages. Even if I doubt the few hunderth KB saved by using package is worth it nowadays.

Thank you for the quick reply. I wanted to use mORMot 2 in a commercial environment and my company requires all the libraries we use to be centralized. We use .bpl files for that. Using environmental variables worked fine, but inside our system it's not possible to do that. I wanted to start in the synopse.info forum, but my account (made it yesterday) has been banned. No idea why. Btw, the problem was that mormot.db.raw.sqlite3.static.pas couldn't be used by Delphi when trying to package it somehow.

Let's ask for feedback at https://synopse.info/forum/viewtopic.php?id=7064

Here are some advices when creating a package

• use LIBSSUFFIX Auto
• create a seperate package for Design-Time components (TSynLabeledEdit), the most of the sources should be in the runtime package. May seperate IDE-Modification in an seperate package too.
• use inc file to control which variant you want to build (BDE, Firedac, etc.)
• maybe the deprecation warning of should be suspressed when installing the packages
