@Dave Nottage Sorry to be miss understood. I would like this to be for a PC

Associated to button 1. So many it is usless My-Ip-Scanner-Project-master (2).zip

I can put a lot of functions/procedure from the net it will be crazy more than 10 from google search none gave me a LIST with associated software, it will be a few pages.

Using D10.2.3 I'm curious why this happens I am compiling this project vcl-styles-utils-master> Tools >Vcl Styles Equalizer (Tool) It has a Drag-Drop for VSF. The problem. Under Debug and IDE the drag does not work With the EXE it workes. Any idea? As far as I recall any project with Drag Drop does not work in my case under the IDE. (Moving files to an application) P.S dragging within an application works under the IDE.

Going on with the main project I cannot save to c:\ without elevated privileges That's life

@anders You might be right. Just elevated the EXE program and it did not work !! Ok, now I understand. Crazy window I just checked and it worked. Thankes

Another one on an expert I have this part of an expert program list of component names var PackageServices: IOTAPackageServices; PackageCounter: Integer; ComponentCounter: Integer; InstalledComponentName: string; PackageServices := BorlandIDEServices as IOTAPackageServices; for PackageCounter := 0 to PackageServices.PackageCount - 1 do begin for ComponentCounter := 0 to PackageServices.GetComponentCount(PackageCounter) - 1 do begin InstalledComponentName := PackageServices.ComponentNames[PackageCounter, ComponentCounter]; <<<< here i get component name as a string On another program, that I want to merge the two. type TClassArray = array[1..{179} 169] of TPersistentClass; ClassArray: TClassArray = ( TBitmap, TGraphic, TOutlineNode, TGraphicsObject, Now to my question Is it possible to get from the above the component as TPersistentClass; which mean var x:TPersistentClass; x:=PackageServices.ComponentNames[PackageCounter, ComponentCounter]; <<<<< ??????? obviously one is string one is TPersistentClass; How to? Or am I wrong with my idea? Which mean getting all components as TPersistentClass, and not as strings

@Ian Branch Have you tried CnPack Uses Cleaner?

Let explain the scenario I have someone project to compile. Let assume that the guy does not use an external PAS file for his project. The project has a lot of uses. 1.So I compile there is an error. 2.Look for the uses needed. 3.Copy uses needed Go to the top directory of the project and search for it in a directory. 4. Found the directory. Copy directory. 5. Go to the project option. Go to the search path. 6. Add path. 7.Close. 8 repeat 1 to 7 again. Some of the big projects put 1 Pascal file in a directory. To me, it does not make sense. Now for what is needed. looking for an expert (or just an exe stay on top ) that can alleviate some of the processes. I thought at least adding directories without opening the project option. doing 1 to 4 and adding to tool mite help. Any suggestions? Will adding directories to search path NOT with Delphi will not work since Delphi (i presume) does not load his project file every time. Or will it say a file has changed? Your ideas?

@FPiette I will check it. I always willing to learn new staff. Thanks Running as per your advice

Correct but not all use indexing. Like me. Why because I try to keep my c:\ as small as possible. Maybe I am wrong. On my computer, I had already needed to swap a DVD reader to increase disk size. I am working for years on an external disk that I backup on an 8 tera. and the c too. Even still my c increases at an alarming rate.

@dummzeuch do not forget that some project use uses that are on another path/disk depend on user components/library installation. Search is according to the user given directories and it will take time to search. Now, what happens if a need for pas file has a duplicate, it has to check the date, and so on and so on. it is not as simple as it sounds. Sometimes, if one installed a new library with an update but the program you compile uses an OLD version , what then. It happens to me a lot needing to go back, and have problems. People sometimes change, names, properties, and more when they update libraries.

Pieces of this software we have all over the IDE. But Ok. In my case, I would like one specific piece. CNpack for example clean uses

One more step to automate is to put the directories in dproj and as @Uwe Raabe pointed it will be perfect And another thing I could not find in PascalAnalyzerLite (and I might be wrong) if added directories are someplace else. A list of directories to scan. Maybe I did not look enough well, I took a library out of the project and PascalAnalyzerLite did bring me the old scann.

@dummzeuch It is nice but as you understand this is not the solution because one has to compile to know which dcu is missing and this is tedious PascalAnalyzerLite has the solution but with a lot of overhead which is not needed in my case

@dummzeuch Ha ha Ok. The need is scanning for the dcu

@dummzeuch It seem that PascalAnalyzerLite does it all is needed is to copy put ";" in bitween directorie and copy as a large string. But a small pas software is OK without the large information

@Uwe Raabe That is great thanks

@dummzeuch i do not understand what it does since there is no button to choose a dpr (project) and scann it

@dummzeuch If you do add to Gexpert that will be cool. If you can submit the source here beforehand I will test it on a project

Ok thanks

Thanks, I will try it on a project

@FPiette The problem is simple Start compiling a project first time The error will tell you what is missing in the uses (I am not talking about pas lines error just the uses) On large projects uses errors send you to different uses and so on. This is where the mess starts. Take any project, not yours you do not know what is missing.

@FPiette You all right but the problem is NOT you and me Using someone ELSE projects often is a mess with directories. They split the pas files into many directories which make life a bit cumbersome for compilation. I am with Delphi since #1 and still love to learn new stuff by compiling other people's projects. Delphi is my profession AND my hobby

@dummzeuch Sorry it is weekend here. Well now it compiled OK Tf_PortableAppsToStartMenu.b_PortableAppsDirClick <<<< empty
