1. WHAT IS DELPHI 10 LITE ----------
Delphi 10 Lite is a standard installation of Delphi 2006 Architect in which:
- All the setup options have been discarded EXCEPT databases and source code.
- Refactoring and ErrorInsite have been disabled because they require the .NET Framework.
- The Welcome Page has been removed.
- The help system has been substituted by the Delphi 7 help, which is far better and besides it doesn't require the .NET Framework SDK.
- A great programming font has been included: Monospac821 BT. Recommended setting: size 8 with ClearType activated.
- Update 1 has been installed (version of the IDE is 10.0.2166.28377)
- Unneeded files have been removed.
2. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ----------
- Windows 2000/XP or higher. - 200 MB of disk space.
For the rest, the requirements are similar to those of Delphi 7.
3. WHAT DESIGNTIME PACKAGES ARE INCLUDED IN DELPHI 10 LITE ----------
Delphi 10 Lite includes the following designtime packages:
The help system has been substituted by the Delphi 7 help, which is far better and besides it doesn't require the .NET Framework SDK.
Only the reference materials have been included. These are:
- Developing Database Applications - Delphi Object and Component Reference - Delphi Language Guide - Delphi Compiler Messages and Warnings - Delphi Compiler Options and Directives - Microsoft Win32 Programmer's Reference - Glossary
If you need a programmer's guide, there are some excellent books out there, such as the Delphi 6 Developer's Guide, by Xavier Pacheco and Steve Teixeira.
NOTE: There is no context-sensitive help, sorry. However, you can access the help from the Delphi main menu or clicking on the Help icon in the toolbar.
