Changing the GetResourceClient method from virtual to static works
Is this a bug or by design?
As Michael said this is by design. If you want to use a non-static class
procedure you must not use "class property", but only "property" (yes, that
works).
So what's the special use of a *class* property? If it exists for Delphi
compatibility only, why then is it handled differently from "property"?
The reason is explained in the upcoming docs.
Namely: a static method cannot be overridden.
The class property is part of this particular class, and descendent classes
should not be able to override it's behaviour.
Michael.
