It would be nice to have an installation program with a check box or something that allowed you to select whether source should be available for debugging or not. Developers Express do it this way, but unfortunately not many others.
TurboPower (certainly the old buyware, if not the new freeware) is an example of libraries that cause you to end up in the 3rd party library source when there is an exception, whether you want to or not. I almost never want to debug the third party libraries when there is an exception - only my own source.
AidAim libraries are examples of those few that unfortunately causes that dreaded something-path dialog box to appear every time there is an exception. I assume the problem is that they deliver debug DCU's, but not the source. Whatever the cause, don't make this mistake.
What it all boils down to is this: Having the source can be useful, but make life easy for those of us that doesn't want to debug it.
Example:
Basic - $xxx
Basic w/source - $xxx
Professional - $xxx
Professional w/source - $xxx
etc...
This is what I'm trying to point out - each level should have unique features available only to that level, but source should be available for any of them...
