TStream.ReadComponent function
Reads component data from a stream.
Declaration
function ReadComponent(Instance: TComponent): TComponentDescription
ReadComponent reads a component state from the stream and
transfers this state to
Instance. If
Instance is nil,
then it is created first based on the type stored in the stream.
ReadComponent returns the component as it is read from the stream.
ReadComponent simply creates a
TReader object and
calls its
ReadRootComponent
method.
Errors
If an error occurs during the reading of the component, an EFilerError exception is raised.
