See implementation of dispatch. It gets the message number and looks for the corresponding method in a table. The compiler generates this table at compile time.
Thanks. I did try to find it but am lost up till now. regarding Thorsten's message I assume it is a member function to some class (e.g. TObject), but my usual means to find such functions don't show it to me.


This may not be the completely accurate description, but this is how I model things in my mind and in my experiments reality hasn't falsified this model.
I do believe that you are right. Thorsten's hint that the compiler moves the information in the RTTI might point into the the correct direction, but up I still need to find out what the exactly RTTI contains and how to extract it from there.
