Anyone know of a trick/hack to get Delphi (XE3 and XE6 in my case) to ignore missing packages during loading of Delphi itself or of a project?

Yes I want it to try loading the packages next time, but no I don't want 500 pop-under dialogs each time.

  1. I would be interested as well, even if the trick got it to ask for a missing package only once, .

    If you have A needing B and B is missing, you'll usually get a message about B, then a message about A, and then a message about B again.
    And God save you if you have more than one package that needs B...

  2. Depending on how far back in time I need to go, I usually get about 3 to 10 of these messages each time I don't work on trunk (ie twice if I start Delphi and then load project).

    Given that they're invariably pop-under (why oh why?!?!) it's a royal pain in the ass!

  3. Something similarly annoying is frames that inherit from frames that are not currently registered on the palette.  Personally, I try to instantiate them dynamically when I can, but it's not always desirable.

  4. Dalija Prasnikar That's kinda the problem, I definitely do need those packages when I'm back in the present.

  5. Just hold the 'y' key and 500 popups are answered in 20 seconds :P
