Conditional Define for Packages

[chkaufmann 17]

Hi,

 

I use FastMM5 in a unit for logging, however I don't want this unit/code to be compiled into my IDE package.

 

Is there a predefined constant for an IFDEF to see if my unit is compiled in an application or into a package? Or do I have to create my own constant for this?

"Package-specific Compiler Directives" help topic. However it doesn't contain anything like "IFDEF PACKAGE". I'm afraid there's no straight way to do it, only some kinds of workarounds

This is not what I need. I need a constant so I can exclude code (and put some dummy code) when the unit goes to the package.

It is what you need, consider how you are building the package, specifically the run time and design time flags you are setting, use the above:

Test the mix of $DESIGNONLY and $RUNONLY that fits your usage.

No, there is not.  You would have to create your own conditional in the Package's project options.

Yes.
