​Yes, that help me, thanks.

Now about assigning I must repeat it (assign) for every child class copy its field members, is there any trick to copy the values like assigning record var to another record
var?
I know it is kind of strange way :P

There is no such safe mechanism.

Well, actually there is a safe mechanism. You use a record to store the
class variables. But it looks clumsily:

type
TMyClass = class(TPersistent)
private
type
TMyClassVars = record
a,b,c: string;
end;
private
F: TMyClassVars;
public
procedure Assign(Source: TPersistent);
property a: string read F.a write F.a;
end;

procedure TMyClass.Assign(Source: TPersistent);
begin
F:=TMyClass(Source).F;
inherited;
end;

Yes. But that works only for 'simple' types and still requires you to write code.

For the more general case where you can have arrays, classes, interfaces and whatnot as fields of your object, there is simply no correct way.

Can't the clipboard help in cloning? Similar to the IDE's copy and paste.
Even then you'd need to convert the fields to the format the clipboard expects. And if you managed to correctly "stream" all properties than you don't need the clipboard anyway...
