    UpdateStoredList

    Update a stringlist with object references.

    Declaration

    Source position: rttiutils.pp line 137

    procedure UpdateStoredList(AComponent: TComponent; 
                          AStoredList: TStrings; FromForm: Boolean);

    Arguments

    Name Description
    AComponent Root component.
    AStoredList List of property references to resolve.
    FromForm Start search from form or search globally.

    Description

    UpdateStoredList will parse the strings in AStoredList using ParseStoredItem and will replace the Objects properties with the instance of the object whose name each property path in the list refers to. If FromForm is True, then all instances are searched relative to AComponent, i.e. they must be owned by AComponent. If FromForm is False the instances are searched in the global list of streamed components. (the FindGlobalComponentCallBack callback must be set for the search to work correctly in this case)

    If a component cannot be found, the reference string to the property is removed from the stringlist.

    Errors

    If AComponent is Nil, an exception may be raised.
