I often wondered abou that. So if i understand correctly: Say I have Type TFoo = class; private fSomeField: Integer; public constructor Create; end; then constructor TFoo.Create begin Inherited Create; fSomeField := -1; end; would in essence be equal to constructor TFoo.Create begin fSomeField := -1; end; Since TOblect.Create "does nothing".
