In Delphi 2007, I added a new string type to my project:
type
String40 = string;
This property is used in a class:
type
TPerson = class
private
FFirstName = String40;
published
FirstName: string40 read FFirstName write FFirstName;
end;
During runtime, I want to get the name of the property FirstName by using RTTI. I expect it to be String40:
var
MyPropInfo: TPropInfo;
PropTypeName: string;
MyPerson: TPerson;
begin
MyPerson := TPerson.Create;
MyPropInfo := GetPropInfo(MyPerson, 'FirstName')^;
PropTypeName := MyPropInfo.PropType^.Name;
However, in this example PropTypeName is 'string'. What do I need to do get the correct property type name, 'String40'?
