Talk:System.TypInfo.TSymbolName

NOTE: On Mobile TSymbolName is not a ShortString. Here are the Mobile declarations:

C++	Delphi
typedef System::Byte TSymbolName;	TSymbolName = Byte;

This can cause subtle failures that are hard to assess, such as:

void test(System::Typinfo::PTypInfop ti) {
  printf("Type name = '%s'\n", System::AnsiString(ti->Name).c_str());
}

The above will work as expected on Desktop but fail strangely on Mobile as the AnsiString is built off a Byte, instead of a ShortString :(

The same issue applies to various <type>.Name fields from the System.TypInfo unit.
