Is there a reason for this:
class TBase
FBar: TObject;
end;
class TChild(TBase)
function GetBar: TChildObject; // does just a typecast
// provide a property Bar to avoid type-casts
property Bar: TChildObject
read GetBar
write FBar; // this doesn't work
end;
I understand there is a rule for property and variable type to match
exactly...
But in the above case that rule would not be needed?
Since FBar: TOBject is a base class of TChildObject, it can store any
object that can be assigned to Bar.
