TStringTableResource.ChangeDescTypeAllowed function

Member of TStringTableResourceprotectedIn unit stringtableresource

Declaration

pascal
function ChangeDescTypeAllowed(aDesc: TResourceDesc): Boolean
 ; override

Description

Not described here; this is what TAbstractResource.ChangeDescTypeAllowed says of it:

Reports whether changing the type of resource type or name is allowed

Descendant classes must implement this method to declare if the resource allows changing the type of one of its resource description (type or name): that is, if it allows one of its descriptions type to change from dtName to dtID or vice versa.

Example:

A certain resource class allows its name only to be changed: e.g. a TBitmapResource doesn't want its type to be anything else than RT_BITMAP. It then allows changing the type of the description only if the description is the resource name:

Result:=aDesc=fName;
