    Copyright (c) 1999-2005 by the Free Pascal development team

    This unit makes Free Pascal as much as possible Delphi compatible,
    defining several internal structures for classes, interfaces, and
    resource strings.

    Additionally this file defines the interface of TObject, providing
    their basic implementation in the corresponding objpas.inc file.

    WARNING: IF YOU CHANGE SOME OF THESE INTERNAL RECORDS, MAKE SURE
    TO MODIFY THE COMPILER AND OBJPAS.INC ACCORDINGLY, OTHERWISE
    THIS WILL LEAD TO CRASHES IN THE RESULTING COMPILER AND/OR RTL.

    IN PARTICULAR, THE IMPLEMENTATION PART OF THIS INCLUDE FILE,
    OBJPAS.INC, USES SOME HARDCODED RECORD MEMBER OFFSETS.
