In Delphi mobile development, I noticed that resources like PNG images are both embedded in the binary and stored as files in the Assets directory on Android and StartUp/Documents on iOS when added via Project > Resources and Images. I’m seeking clarity on a few points:
Purpose of Duplication: Why are resources managed in both the binary and as separate files? Is this specific to Delphi or required by mobile platforms?
Resource Management Best Practices: What are the advantages and drawbacks of embedding resources in the binary versus storing them as files? Which approach is recommended for performance and efficiency?
Any insights on optimizing resource management in Delphi for mobile platforms would be greatly appreciated.
