The problem is not so much TList and TCollection (or TObjectList or
TOwnedCollection) but a limitation
in object pascal itself - Without it being included as base type it can't be
type safe.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but the only OO thing about object
pascal is the keyword 'class',
but none of the base types are OO
They almost did it in D5 with dynamic arrays it would seem to be so simple
to extend it to..
AClass = class
end;
Var
anArray: array of AClass
