Description

Retrieves a component from the clipboard.

Use GetComponent to retrieve a component that is stored on the clipboard.

Owner becomes the owner of the retrieved component and Parent becomes its parent. Owner is usually a form, but both parameters can be nil (Delphi) or NULL (C++).

Before a class is read from the clipboard, it must be registered by a call to RegisterClasses. If you try to read an unregistered class, you'll get an EClassNotFound exception.
