How to organize big projects in the Delphi IDE

delphi

Solution

Organize your source files in folders, like `(Invoice, Analysis, etc.)`. Navigate the folders through your `Project Manager` menu.

This is a straight forward uncomplicated and flexible approach.

Problem

I would like to split my big application in smaller pieces in the IDE. Corrently, I have one project (MainApp.exe) with a lot of files. With so many files, I get sometimes confused where to find the right file to modify. It would be great, if I could split my application in different parts, e.g. InvoicePart, AnalysisPart, CustomerPart, ReportPart, etc. When compiling the parts should be generate one executable file. That means I don't want to split the running *.exe application in DLLs or runtiume Packages. It should just help me writing code easier. Is there an elegant way in Delphi XE?
