It can be done, but it takes some project file mangling. Takes about an hour of finagling, including:
  • You have go into each project package and specify that an output location for the .BPI files, or you will get unresolved eternals as the different packages reference themselves
  • It's a good idea to take advantage of the project dependency options inside BCB. ZComponent should depend on ZDbc which should depend on ZPlain which should depend on ZParseSQL which should depend on ZCore.
  • You will also need to make a couple of code modifications as noted in this thread
Beyond that, I seem to be running into another problem where the app isn't completely shutting down; not sure why, but I suspect some threads aren't being terminated.
