Public Methods

	Name	Description
	AfterConstruction	Responds after the last constructor has executed.
	BeforeDestruction	Responds before the first destructor executes.
	ClassInfo	Returns a pointer to the runtime type information (RTTI) table for the object type.
	ClassName	Returns a string indicating the type of the object instance (as opposed to the type of the variable passed as an argument).
	ClassNameIs	Determines whether an object is of a specific type.
	ClassParent	Returns the type of the immediate ancestor of a class.
	ClassType	Returns the class reference for the object's class.
	CleanupInstance	Performs finalization on long strings, variants, and interface variables within a class.
	Create	Creates a filer object.
	Create	Constructs an object and initializes its data before the object is first used.
	DefaultHandler	Provides the interface for a method that processes message records.
	DefineBinaryProperty	Treats unformatted data as if it were the value of a published property, and writes it directly to a memory stream.
	DefineProperty	Defines data the writer object writes as if the data were a property.
	Destroy	Destroys of an instance of a writer.
	Dispatch	Calls message-handling methods for the object, based on the contents of the Message parameter.
	FieldAddress	Returns the address of a published object field.
	FlushBuffer	Synchronizes the writer's buffer with the associated stream by writing the current buffer.
	Free	Destroys an object and frees its associated memory, if necessary.
	FreeInstance	Deallocates memory allocated by a previous call to the System::TObject::NewInstance method.
	GetInterface	Retrieves a specified interface.
	GetInterfaceEntry	Returns the entry for a specific interface implemented in a class.
	GetInterfaceTable	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 MethodAddress, a member of class TObject.
	MethodName	This is MethodName, a member of class TObject.
	NewInstance	Allocates memory for an instance of an object type and returns a pointer to that new instance.
	SafeCallException	Handles exceptions in methods declared using the safecall calling convention.
	Write	Writes Count bytes from Buf to the writer object's associated stream.
	WriteBoolean	Writes the Boolean value passed in Value to the writer object's stream.
	WriteChar	Writes the character passed in Value to the writer object's stream.
	WriteCollection	Writes the collection of objects passed in Value to the writer object's stream.
	WriteComponent	Writes the component specified by Component to a stream.
	WriteCurrency	Writes a currency value to the writer's stream.
	WriteDate	Writes a datetime value to the writer's stream.
	WriteDescendent	Triggers the writing of descendant components in inherited forms.
	WriteDouble	Writes a value of type Double to the writer object’s stream.
	WriteFloat	Writes the floating-point value passed in Value to the writer object's stream.
	WriteIdent	Writes the identifier passed in Ident to the writer object's stream.
	WriteInteger	This is the overview for the WriteInteger method overload.
	WriteListBegin	Writes a start-of-list marker to the writer object's associated stream.
	WriteListEnd	Writes an end-of-list marker to the writer object's associated stream.
	WriteRootComponent	Calls the WriteDescendent method.
	WriteSignature	Writes a filer signature to the writer object's associated stream.
	WriteSingle	Writes a value of type Single (Delphi) or float (C++) to the writer's stream.
	WriteStr	Writes raw data to the writer object's stream.
	WriteString	Writes tagged data to the writer object's stream.
	WriteVariant	Writes a Variant value to the writer's stream.
	WriteWideChar	Writes the wide character passed in Value to the writer object's stream.
	WriteWideString	WriteWideString writes a wide string to the writer's stream.

Public Properties

	Name	Description
	Ancestor	Determines whether to write the properties of inherited components.
	IgnoreChildren	Enables a writer object to save a component without saving the components it owns.
	LookupRoot	Specifies the root component for resolving names while loading and saving components.
	Position	Represents the current writing position in the associated stream.
	Root	Indicates which object is the root, or ultimate owner, of the objects read or written by the filer.
	RootAncestor	Represents the ancestor of the component in the Root property.
