The usual work flow is like this:
You alter fpc units and tests them with some test program (ppu files in
source\packages\fcl-db\units\...).
When you are done, you build all fpc packages that depend on these ppus and copy
all new files to the install folders (fpc\2.6.2\units\...).
The safest way is too simply rebuild the whole fpc and call make install.
Please read the documentation about building and installing fpc.
