TObject |
TPersistent is the basic class for the streaming system. Since it is compiled in the {$M+} state, the compiler generates RTTI (Run-Time Type Information) for it and all classes that descend from it. This information can be used to stream all properties of classes.
It also introduces functionality to assign the contents of 2 classes to each other.
TPersistent implements the IFPObserved interface for the benefit of descendant classes, but does not call IFPObserved.FPONotifyObservers. Descendants such as TStrings and TCollection and TCollectionItem do use it.
