DDevExtensions 2.8 released for RAD Studio 2009-XE5
One feature of DDevExtensions that may interest those with out of memory issues when compiling larger project groups is the "Release compiler unit cache before compiling". It is turned off by default.
Description:
If you compile large project groups the compiler’s unit cache can occupy a lot of memory for each compiled project. This can lead to “out of memory” exceptions. DDevExtensions can be set up to
release the compiler’s unit caches of the projects that are already compiled. It is also possible to only release the caches if the IDE’s memory usage is high so CodeInsight doesn’t get a performance hit due to a released unit cache.

does this also adress the out of memory errors you get when you have large resource files in your project (>200MB) ?
ReplyDeletei can only put files up to 120MB total in my .rc/.res and have to add the rest after compilation with resource-hacker which can be a real pain
Thanks for the work on both the extensions and fixpacks!
ReplyDeleteMarcel Krebes It doesn't. For this the compiler/linker must be patched. DDevExtensions only addresses the IDE. It doesn't hook into the compiler like IDEFixPack.
