Undefined Class Property Functions

Not all properties of all classes have been explicitly exposed to lua, but if you know the name of a property of a specific class you can still access them (assuming they are declared as published in the pascal class declaration)

See:

  • getPropertyList : Returns a StringList object containing all the published properties of the specified class
  • setProperty : Sets the value of a published property of a class (Won't work for method properties)
  • getProperty : Gets the value of a published property of a class (Won't work for method properties)
