Trying to generate the exact same information as Delphi is IMHO not the

What is needed is an API that gives you the info contained in the
internal structures.
That's what the RTTI unit is there for. It provides a higher level API to
the type information than typinfo does.
I was hoping to avoid the RTTI unit, it has a horrible, Horrible, HORRIBLE
interface in my opinion. (probably again some misguided .NET clone attempt)
But no matter:
If the info is there, I can write my own interface which is more to my
liking.
I don't care about Delphi compatibility in these matters. What matters is
that the concept is there, the exact API I will creatre form myself.
Hmh. That should read 'create for myself', obviously.
