My last post about the death of DDevExtensions for XE Update 1 was an overreaction. It was late in the night, it was a copy protection problem and I wasn’t in the mood to fix this.
It took me hours to identify which function hook in DDevExtensions caused the problem. But eventually I found it. It’s the dialog that asks for switching the project if you edit a file that isn’t part of the active project or its dependencies.
The new DDevExtensions 2.1 for XE Update 1 that is identical to the original 2.1 version except for this hook is now available. That means no new bug fixes or new features.

Great Work!
Hi Andy, thank you very much!!!
Alleluia!
cool
I knew you can’t get sleep until you fix it 😉 as always —Great Job!!—
Andy,
when I read your last comment, which obviously came out of a frustrated experience I thought to myself “EMB did it again”.
Did what? Managed to “piss off” one of their important community members. Unfortunately a shrinking circle.
I think that “they” should treat people like you, who have the enthusiasm, the knowledge and the action to help a commercial company making their product better. I assume for not really much in return. Otherwise you would not have reacted in that way…
So if I were EMB I would put you on my payroll as a freelancer and/or support you as much as I can. Just my 2 cents.
Maybe things will change in the future – Christmas is around the corner and one should be allowed to hope for better 😉

It was in the middle of the night when I wrote my blog post.
Excellent job as always, Andreas.
We all write stuff and/or act in frustration from time to time.
Thank you.

Thanks again Andy!
It’s really a good IDE tool, but there is the same problems as the old versions in BDS. When you double click the code explorer/windows edit stab and then restore it, the tool palette will become narrower. It’s really annoying, so give up 🙁
