Looking at our codebase some code is included in a project explicitly and is pulled in from the search path. Does anyone have an opinion as to which is best practise and why?

Update:

I thought I would clarify my question. All our paths are relatives, so we can have multiple branches that all refer to code within their branches. So I’m not asking about relative paths, but whether units should be in the .dpr or picked up using the search path, which is why the previously asked questions don’t quite answer my needs. Thanks to everyone

    I have a very basic way of determining this… If the code is specific to the project (not used elsewhere) I include it explicitly. All shared code gets pulled from the library path.

    best regards,
