I have created a number of classes that are useful in multiple projects. Originally I have copied the source files between the projects in order to use the classes, but it has resulted in differences between the projects regarding the source files when I modify the class.
So I am looking for a different approach using packages instead, but I have never created an fpc package myself before, just used those that I could download... What is the best approach? - Create one package for each class - Create a multi-class package I can see that if I create my-nonvisual-classes.lpk and add a number of class files to that package then every project where I use one of these will get *all* of them included, right? But if I make one package for each class then I have to "install" a number of packages every time I install Lazarus for a new version or on a new device.... I don't want every project I do polluted with all classes I am dealing with here but I fear that will be the case if I make a big package for all classes. So how to best approach this? Specifically I am talking about non-GUI classes, since the ones with a GUI are probably best installed into the Lazarus IDE itself. (I am right now in a situation where I have two projects using a class where there are different modifications in both, which I have to resolve.) PS: I am using subversion to manage my sources and now I have dirtied that by putting the class files as copies in several projects, not good..
