Delphi Known IDE Packages Manager


Delphi Known IDE Packages Manager

New functionality:

* Read package description from the package / version info and write it to the registry
* Tested with all Delphi versions from 6 to 10.1
* Added some more suggestions about what to disable
* Display extensive information about the selected package
* Moved functions from buttons to a menu

Yes, it's still on sourceforge:

Mason Wheeler  I'm still waiting for your suggestion for an alternative.

  1. Is there a page or wiki entry of what can be disabled and what that package did ?  Basically what people are disabling and why

  2. Brett Wilton  I disable the packages based on my guesses based on the names :)

  3. One thing to keep in mind is that disabling a package does not necessarily mean it won't be loaded. Some packages apparently are necessary for runtime packages. If you want to be sure, you must (re)move the file.

  4. Just to keep things difficult, some packages cannot be unloaded and then reloaded again. One is bindcomp.bpl in XE8 up to Berlin.
