TCustomPropertyStorage.RestoreProperties procedure
Restores property values from the storage mechanism for the container.
Declaration
procedure RestoreProperties; virtualDescription
RestoreProperties is a method used to load property values stored
in the container, and apply the values to the origin components / persistent
object instances. Properties names and the corresponding object instances are
loaded using the
GetPropertyList and
FinishPropertyList
methods.
A temporary TPropsStorage instance is created and configured to
use RootSection and DoReadString from the class
instance. The LoadObjectsProps method is called to get the
property values and apply them to the object instances for the property list.
Some of the methods called in RestoreProperties are declared as abstract
virtual methods in TCustomPropertyStorage, like: GetPropertyList,
FinishPropertyList, and DoReadString. They must be implemented in a
descendent class to use the specific storage format for its container.
