Delphi Config Manager: 1.1 Release
Delphi Configuration Manager version 1.1 is now available. The following enhancements have been made in this release:
- Find and Find Next functionality added
- The requirement of starting Delphi for a new configuration is no longer needed
- Make sure a package listed in a base configuration is actually included on the users system before including it in a new configuration
- Filter added to Remove ECO support
- More items added to the Edit Menu
- Ability to create a Desktop Short Cut for a configuration
The Launcher Application also received the following updates:
- Ability to set a config as the default and after 5 seconds of being idle, will launch that configuration
- Set the previously launched configuration as the selected config when starting again
Coming in the next release
- Support for different Delphi versions. Hopefully Delphi 6 through to Delphi 2005. If you have a Delphi 6 installation and want to send me an export of the HKLM\software\borland\delphi6 registry key, send me an email and I'll let you know if I still need one. Without this, I am unable to support Delphi 6 as I don't have it installed, and don't really want to install it.
- Clone Config support (as it will be used to clone configs to different versions).
- Any bug fixes that are required.
- There is something else as well but it is super secret and I'm not sure if I will get a chance to implement it in the next release.
Steve Trefethen has mentioned Delphi Configuration Manager in his blog.

Hi, I have some feedback re you config manager, but I can't find an email address.
Thanks for the utility. Some things I noticed:
* the url link in the about box is broken. Needs .htm
* If I change a config it duplicates the prior copy rather than overwrites it.
* I tried to add a new assembly (http://codecentral.borland.com/codecentral/ccweb.exe/listing?id=21168). I load Config, then check the box for the BPL and save, but it doesn't persist to disk. I checked both copies. (? maybe because the BPL isn't in $(BDS)) If I load D2005 without your tool I see Valentino's tool, but I can't get your tool to load it.
* some tooltips for the right hand two icons would be good
* extra tools ? Remove StarTeam, Crystal, ComponentOne
* an email address would be good, or even just a link yo your blog
thanks

Thanks, fixed in the next release

Fixed as well (still can't believe I didn't notice it!)

I will look into this, could be because the file doesn't exist in the master assembly list.
* some tooltips for the right hand two icons would be good
Will add them
* extra tools ? Remove StarTeam, Crystal, ComponentOne
While I could do StarTeam, the other two are component packages and currently I don't mess with component packages. I have had enough requests for it though so it might come in a future release (definitely not the next one though).
* an email address would be good, or even just a link yo your blog
Will add an email address to the website (which I just did) and also the about box.
thanks for your feedback
