Description

Defines a fixed length string for general use in the TTypeData record.

The GetTypeData routine utilises Delphi's RTTI (Run Time Type Information) to return a pointer to TTypeData record that describes a component property data type.

A number of the variant data sections in the TTypeData record use the TSymbolName to define a 255 character string to hold Name values such as UnitName for a class data type.
