If i have project use some source of components,not use  *.o files,
My proj1 use component lib1.pas but lib1.pas need unit unit1.pas in sub dir
(/mylib/src/sqlite/unit1.pas) of same dir of lib1.pas

/proj1/bin
/proj1/src
/proj1/lib
/proj1/addons

/mylib/src
/mylib/src/sqlite/
/mylib/src/firebird/

in fact i must add all in search path, while if i put in /mylib/src/lib1.pas
in uses
uses
  sqlite in './sqlite/sqlite.pas';

now i can move copy to friends, make it from another platform
(linux/windows) and send the examples without worry about the paths, may be
i need to change one path

May be the point got when i build site using PHP :)


Thanks
