GetTypeKind¶

Return type kind for a type.

Declaration¶

Source position: system.fpd line 95

function GetTypeKind(const T: AnyType) : TTypeKind;

Description¶

GetTypeKind is a compiler intrinsic: it returns the type kind for the type T. In difference with the TypeInfo, if no type information was yet generated for the type, this statement will not ensure that the type information is available: the compiler knows the correct value, and will directly insert it into the code as a constant.
