Description
Indicates the number of calls to BeginUpdate that have not been matched by a call to EndUpdate.
TStrings uses UpdateCount to keep track of calls to the BeginUpdate and EndUpdate methods. Every time a call is made to BeginUpdate, TStrings increments the value of UpdateCount. Every call to EndUpdate causes TStrings to decrement UpdateCount.
When UpdateCount changes from 0 to 1, TStrings calls the SetUpdateState method with a parameter of true. When UpdateCount changes from 1 to 0, TStrings calls the SetUpdateState method with a parameter of false. This allows descendant classes to perform optimizations when handling multiple updates.
