TTabbedNotebook.GetChildOwner Method

Returns the owner of a child component being read from a stream.

Pascal
function GetChildOwner: TComponent; override;
C++
virtual __fastcall TComponent * GetChildOwner();

GetChildOwner is used internally by the component streaming system. It is rarely necessary to call it directly. 

In TComponent, GetChildOwner always returns nil (Delphi) or NULL (C++), indicating that the owner is the root component currently being read (usually a form or data module). The Owner of a component is responsible for destroying it.
