How can I disable Castalia in XE8?

问题:

Suppose that I wish to disable the newly integrated Castalia that is introduced in XE8. How do I go about doing that in a clean way? I cannot see anything on the Castalia menu that allows me to disable it by setting one single option.

Reasons why one might wish to disable Castalia include:

• How can I configure the new Delphi XE8 Editor begin-end visual cues?
• It interacts poorly with the Bookmarks plugin's animations.
• Castalia has been known to render the IDE unstable.

回答1:

You have 2 options

1) modify the shortcut to the Delphi (RAD Studio) IDE, adding the parameter /NOCASTALIA

2) disable the castalia expert from the registry

Go the the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\16.0\Known IDE Packages\Delphi key and then place a underscore _ in front of the description of the Castalia package, in that way the package is not loaded.
