When you press 'install' in the package editor, the following happens:
- The IDE calls 'make IDE OPT=-Cn' to compile the IDE (not the
LCL, not any component) without final linking. This is needed for
packages using the IDE sources directly. FPC will only recompile what
has changed.
- IDE compiles all changed packages
- IDE links the new IDE
- IDE restarts
I'll have to retest doing a visual component in Lazarus....
I developed several visual components for Lazarus and usually you
install once and as you develop is not necessary to recompile the IDE,
but are some exceptions:
1) The installed version crashes the IDE designer
2) You added a published event/property and wants to make a demo app
that uses it through designer
