Borland® Delphi™ 6 Developer's Guide

Using Runtime Packages

To use runtime packages in your Delphi applications, simply check the Build With Runtime Packages check box found in the Project, Options dialog on the Packages page. The next time you build your application after this option is selected, your application will be linked dynamically to runtime packages instead of having units linked statically into your .exe or .dll. The result will be a much more svelte application (although bear in mind that you will have to deploy the necessary packages with your application).
