Since at least D2007 a project file can have a main source file with differing base name. The DevExpress demos make use of this: E.g. there is a single dpr file UnboundListDemo.dpr which serves as the main source for both UnboundListDemoD11.dproj and UnboundListDemoD12.dproj.
Now if I have a Project: IOTAProject
then Project.FileName
returns the dproj file name. I couldn't find an "official" way to get the dpr's file name. Is there any? One can get it from parsing the dproj file (see here) but I'd prefer a ToolsAPI method.
Edit: I came up with this code based on Jon's answer:
function IsProjectSource(const FileName: string): Boolean;
begin
Result := IsDpr(FileName) or IsBpr(FileName) or IsPackage(FileName);
end;
function GxOtaGetProjectFileName2(Project: IOTAProject; NormalizeBdsProj: Boolean = False): string;
var
i: Integer;
Module: IOTAModule;
Editor: IOTAEditor;
begin
Result := '';
if Assigned(Project) then begin
Result := Project.FileName;
if NormalizeBdsProj and IsBdsprojOrDproj(Result) then begin
Module := Project as IOTAModule;
for i := 0 to Module.ModuleFileCount - 1 do
begin
Editor := Module.ModuleFileEditors[i];
if IsProjectSource(Editor.FileName) then begin
Result := Editor.FileName;
Exit;
end;
end;
end;
end;
end;
where the Is... routines are from GX_GenericUtils.
Edit 2: How to create one of these situations:
- Create new VCL application.
- Save as MyProject.dproj.
- Close project in IDE.
- In Windows explorer, rename MyProject.dproj to MyProjectD11.dproj.
- From now on be sure to open MyProjectD11.dproj, not MyProject.dpr!
