The combined length of searchpaths in your ide + the project in question exceed the 32k character limit for commandlines...need to think about a proper workaround...

[Memnarch]

btw the cluster of searchpaths in your IDE, do they come from other thirdparty stuff or from a lot of installed Delphinus-Packages? As it seems, the error you get here should occur when compiling other projects, too(at least when ticking "build externaly with msbuild")

[Memnarch]

To keep you updated. i THINK i found a reasonable concept to overcome this limitation:
Delphinus creates a new Directory(CodeRepo). There it can create new subdirs if required(just plain numbered).

After installing a new Package, check if there is any subdir in CodeRepo that Does NOT have a file that matches with any of the new Package(Create a new dir if there is a collision with each subdir). For each file of the new package, create a HardLink to the subdir. The subdir in CodeRepo is then added as searchpath. This allows me to put multiple packages into the same folder and therefore reducing the number of required searchpathes while still keeping the structure of the package in the original repo and NOT increasing Diskusage.

Requires NTFS but i think i can assume people run NTFS...hopefully :D

Not implemented yet, just an idea.
