Ah... The mystery is solved! The wiki is well out of date (another reason Lazarus IDE needs versioned help!). Contratry to so many screenshots and text in the wiki, the "Build Modes" node doesn't exist any more in Compiler Options. I found similar functionality well hidden in "Additions and Overrides". Open that sceen, then you have to click on the down arrow next to "Add", then select "IDE Macros". New macro entries are then created under the odd looking grid under "Stored in project (.lpi)". Define your Name=Value pairs there, and they generate the <MacroValues> seen in the LPI file. So, how old is the wiki text and screenshots then? I just checked, and the release Lazarus v1.4 doesn't have the "Build modes" under Compiler Options, and obviously neither does v1.5 (trunk). Feature Request: ---------------- Please, please add versioned documentation (docs per release) as a priority for Lazarus. The wiki is currently a mess, and from what I experienced, definitely not very helpful at all.
