Hi James

If you are talking about static methods you add 'class' to front of the
declaration and definition.

type
  TMyClass = class
    FCannotAccess: integer;
    class function MyName: string;
  end;

class function TMyClass.MyName:string;
begin
  result := 'XYZ";
end; 


you may calli MyName with either  aString := TMyClass.MyName or
AMyClassVar.MyName;

Note:  you cannot access FCannotAccess in the class method.

For static local variables (i.e. in routines) see Delphi help on typed
constants.


Cheers Mike

I should know this one but, does OP have an equivalent to C's static type ?
