TResourceCollection object

In unit Objects

Collection of resource names.

Declaration

pascal

TResourceCollection = class(TStringCollection)

Inheritance

Description

A TResourceCollection manages a collection of resource names. It stores the position and the size of a resource, as well as the name of the resource. It stores these items in records that look like this:

TYPE
   TResourceItem = packed RECORD
      Posn: LongInt;
      Size: LongInt;
      Key : String;
   End;
   PResourceItem = ^TResourceItem;

It overrides some methods of TStringCollection in order to accomplish this.

Remark that the TResourceCollection manages the names of the resources and their associated positions and sizes, it doesn't manage the resources themselves.

Methods

`KeyOf`		Return the key of an item in the collection.
`GetItem`		Read an item from the stream.
`FreeItem`		Release memory occupied by item.
`PutItem`		Write an item to the stream.
