I did this kind of thing some time ago, but have forgotten the details. Let us say you have something like TBaseType(Variable).Method, you want to let TBaseType be a variable so you can have some code like this.
procedure (value:someType) var variableType: TClass; //not quite sure here variableType := TypeOf(value); then further on you execute something like variableType(Variable).Method, rather than TBaseType(Variable).Method because you can't hard code TBaseType because can't tell what it will be at runtime. I remember doing something like that with Delphi of old, probably Delphi 3 or Delphi 7 Can someone help me with this, with some use cases as well?
