at https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio//Athens/en/Package-specific_Compiler_Directives though I only see references of $DESIGNONLY and $RUNONLY with ON (not standalone), so wondering if there is a default param value what it is (ON or OFF)

also asked in https://embt.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/1/RSS-3893 to get a more authoritative answer since Microsoft Copilot kept insisting that {$DESIGNONLY} won't compile which is wrong. Obviously it can't find other doc on that...

also see -LUDesignIDE issue mentioned above. Probably apart from removing that from runtime packages can also remove from design-time ones and just use "DesignIDE" in requires clause of dclXX.dpr (design-time...

btw, would be nice if the > boss config delphi list output was showing some marking for what the locally and the globally (if different) configured compilers are from that...

being able to set the highest (and optional bitness) and lowest (with optional bitness) compiler versions from those installed would also be useful. Highest to compile with the best Delphi...

btw, is there any way to make Boss compile dependencies for multiple platforms into different subfolders? (but not fail if user doesn’t have some of my package’s supported platforms installed)....

thanks, ended up using the installer main issue I see as with GetIt (had reported it) is that one has to find where it placed it and build packages for...

this is how to fix with free grepwin tool note that at files expression I use -dcl* to not remove it from the design-time packages that probably need it

without fixing it one gets > [DCC Fatal Error] E2202 Required package 'DesignIDE' not found when trying to compile for Android etc. that don't have DesignIDE plus you should add...
