Dotted unit names in Delphi

The Programming Works – For some time now (probably since Delphi 2005; at least the feature is present in Delphi 2007) Delphi has support for dotted unit names (like myLib.myUtils.pas). A fully qualified unit name (myLib.myUtils.pas) consists of a scope prefix (myLib) and a scoped or partially qualified unit name (myUtils.pas). The compiler supports scope prefixes as can be seen in Project/Options dialog (‘Namespace prefixes’, Delphi 2009): If you add a scope prefix (myLib) to the list of Namespace prefixes of a project you can use a scoped unit name (myUtils) instead of a fully qualified unit name ...
