ClassInfo 

Returns a pointer to the runtime type information (RTTI) table for the object type.

ClassType 

Returns the class reference for the object's class. 

 

CleanupInstance 

Performs finalization on long strings, variants, and interface variables within a class. 

 

Create 

Initializes the mutex condition variable. 

 

DefaultHandler 

Provides the interface for a method that processes message records. 

 

Destroy 

Destroys the mutex condition variable. 

 

Dispatch 

Calls message-handling methods for the object, based on the contents of the Message parameter. 

 

Equals 

Checks if the current instance and the parameter are equal. 

 

FieldAddress 

This is the overview for the FieldAddress method overload. 

 

Free 

Destroys an object and frees its associated memory, if necessary.

Returns a pointer to a structure containing all of the interfaces implemented by a given class. 

 

InheritsFrom 

Determines the relationship of two object types. 

 

InitInstance 

Initializes a newly allocated object instance to all zeros and initializes the instance's virtual method table pointer. 

 

InstanceSize 

Returns the size in bytes of each instance of the object type. 

 

MethodAddress 

This is the overview for the MethodAddress method overload. 

 

MethodName 

Returns the name of a class method by address. 

 

NewInstance
