Hi,

TStrings has
-  function IndexOf(const S: string): Integer; virtual;
-  function IndexOf(const S: string; aStart : Integer): Integer; virtual;

TStringList has
- function IndexOf(const S: string): Integer; override; It does not override the second variant.

TStrins does not declare these functions as overload. As a result you cannot call/use TStringList.IndexOf(String, Integer)

Is this intentional or simply an oversight?

An oversight, please add an issue to the bugtracker.
