Many thanks Sven, but, if i understand well, TApplication is herited from
TCustomApplication.
And in TCustomApplication there is addobject property.
So maybe it could be possible to know if a new object was created at runtime
(or deleted)?
And all that without TApplication, directly with fp ?
But maybe i dream, i have to add a new function in LCL TApplication like :
TApplication.onComponentCountChange...
PS : I have ask it to Delphi forum too, the answer was : no, it is not possible
to know if a new form was created/deleted, the only way is to create a custom
form with custom onCreate and onDestroy and deal with this child forms.
PS2 : But fpc is much powerfull than Delphi, so, maybe... ;-)
