IDE adds {$R} between units

[John Kouraklis 94]

All of the sudden, the IDE adds 3 or 4 lines of {$R} between the units in the main dpr file. I then delete them and compile the project correctly. The next time I recompile, the {$R} reappear.

 

The {$R} is like this, without any file names or anything else.

 

Anyone has seen this before?

 

Thanks

Can you show a minimal dpr file and tell us which version of Delphi you use.

I'd check the *.dproj for spurious entries.

In .dpr?

Yes it does and that has been going on at least few versions now

When you say this, do you mean for a particular project, or for any? The IDE is known to "mess up" the .dpr if you modify certain parts of it. Examples of what can happen:

The version is 10.3.2 and it looks like the dproj had a few entries like this: 

 

<Form>$R *.res</Form>

as described in a link Dave shared.

 

There were, also, some {$R *.res} at the end of the lines with the units. I hadn't seen them because the file names and the paths are very long going outside the window. 

 

Hope now all is good.

 

Thanks

It happens to me every time I add a new unit to the project, mainly because I have other compiler directives in the .dpr.

I think it works as designed...
