I want to enumerate all properties: private, protected, public etc. I wish to use the built in facilities and not use any third party code.
Serg's answer is good but it is better to avoid exceptions by skipping some types:
uses
Rtti, TypInfo;
procedure TForm4.GetObjectProperties(AObject: TObject; AList: TStrings);
var
ctx: TRttiContext;
rType: TRttiType;
rProp: TRttiProperty;
AValue: TValue;
sVal: string;
const
SKIP_PROP_TYPES = [tkUnknown, tkInterface];
begin
if not Assigned(AObject) and not Assigned(AList) then
Exit;
ctx := TRttiContext.Create;
rType := ctx.GetType(AObject.ClassInfo);
for rProp in rType.GetProperties do
begin
if (rProp.IsReadable) and not (rProp.PropertyType.TypeKind in SKIP_PROP_TYPES) then
begin
AValue := rProp.GetValue(AObject);
if AValue.IsEmpty then
begin
sVal := 'nil';
end
else
begin
if AValue.Kind in [tkUString, tkString, tkWString, tkChar, tkWChar] then
sVal := QuotedStr(AValue.ToString)
else
sVal := AValue.ToString;
end;
AList.Add(rProp.Name + '=' + sVal);
end;
end;
end;
