Compiler Directives Delphi

1 {$DefinitionInfo Off}
2 {$DefinitionInfo On}


Description
The $DefinitionInfo compiler directive determines whether Delphi builds symbol definition information, as used by the Delphi browser and code explorer.

By default, Delphi builds the information.

The overheads for keeping $DefinitionInfo on are minimal.

$DefinitionInfo only works when $DebugInfo and LocalSymbols are On.

Notes
$DefinitionInfo works in conjunction with $ReferenceInfo when the related $Y directive is used:
$YD = Defs On , Refs Off
$Y- = Defs Off , Refs Off
$Y+ = Defs On , Refs On
The default value is $DefinitionInfo On
