I’m writing a package in Delphi 2007 containing a component and several classes. I want to “install” the classes as well as the components.

To be more precise: when a component is installed, the unit is somehow registered such that it is not necessary to add its path to the search path in the project. I would also like to do this with a few extra units that do not contain components: if I can somehow register the root of the package, I’m done. Is this possible?

EDIT: In one sentence the objective is:
If somebody installs my package, it is not necessary to add the path to the units in the package is added to the library path of Delphi (so this does not have to be done by hand).

    When I create a simple component package, I usually set “Unit Output Directory” package option to $(BDSCOMMONDIR)\Dcp instead of adding paths to Library paths – it is more simple. You can download my ksTools package as an example – it is pure source code package with detailed installation instructions
