 Purpose:   Provide automatic wrapping of Delphi variables utilising RTTI

 Features:
   Published properties and methods compiled with {$METHODINFO ON} are
   handled automatically (Note that METHODINFO can be used only with Delphi7
   or later, but all the other wrapping features will work with previous
   versions of Delphi starting from Delphi5).
   Moreover common methods and properties of
   the following frequently used Delphi classes are also exported
   (Note that this list is not exhaustive):

     TObject (ClassName, Free, InheritsFrom)
       TPersistent (Assign)
         TCollection (sequence interface, Items, Count, Insert, Add, Clear)
         TStrings (mapping interface, Text, Add, AddObject, Delete, IndexOf, Clear)
         TComponent (Event properties, Subproperties, Owner, ComponentCount, Components)
           TControl (Parent)
             TWinControl (ControlCount, Controls)
               TForm (Show, ShowModal, Release)


   TStrings, TCollection.Items, TComponent.Components and
   TWinControl.Controls are exposed as sequence/mapping interfaces.
   You can also access the Screen and Application objects, and some other
   constants like mrOk, mrCancel...

   PyDelphiWrapper.RegisterDelphiWrapper allows the customized wrapping of
   additional Delphi classes over which you do not have direct control.
   PyDelphiWrapper.EventHandlers.RegisterHandler() can be used to add event handling
   functionality.  TNotify events are handled out-of-the-box.  To handle
   other types of events you need to write a TEventHandler descendent and
   register the EventHandler.

   A Module level function CreateComponent(ClassName, Owner) is also exported.
   For this function to work, the class needs to be registered using
   Classes.RegisterClass (Some classes are already pre-registered like TForm,
   TApplication, TScreen, TButton, TCheckBox...).

   You can subclass TForm as you would do in Delphi, but you are not able to
   override the Delphi methods in Python. There is also a helper
   function BindMethodsToEvents that can connect your method handlers to the
   component events if you respect a specific pattern for naming your methods:
   handle_ComponentName_EventName  --> handle_Button1_OnClick
   This function is especially useful when you subclass an existing Delphi form,
   as the form will already have all the necessary components setup, but you'll
   be missing the events to your Python code.
   If you subclass Form in Python and name your class with the same name as
   an existing Delphi form (that must be registered with RegisterClass),
   then this class will be used to instanciate the form instead of the regular empty TForm.

class TTestForm(Form):
  def __init__(self, Owner):
    self.Caption = self.Caption + ' - changed by Python subclass'
    self.BindMethodsToEvents() # this will connect handle_btnAdd_OnClick to btnAdd.OnClick

  def handle_btnAdd_OnClick(self, Sender):
    self.ListBox1.Items.Add(self.Edit1.Text)

  There is also a helper method named SetProps at the TPyDelphiObject level,
  allowing any wrapped object to do:
     button.SetProps(Left=10, Top=20, Caption='Clickme!)

  You can inspect the published properties of any wrapped object by inspecting the
  __published__ property.

  Note that events requiring var parameters like OnCloseQuery will provide a specific object
  containing a single Value property that will hold the actual value of the parameter,
  because Python does not allow modifying the parameters:
    def handle_close_query(self, sender, accept):
      accept.Value = False  # accept = False would have not effect!

 Usage:
   Drop a PyDelphiWrapper component on a form, set its engine and module
   properties to a PythonEngine and PythonModule.

   Note that it is very important to add each wrapped Delphi unit to your uses
   clause or you won't access the specific wrappers as they would not be
   registered.
   To make it easier, you can simply add the unit WrapDelphiVCL to your uses
   clause.

   Alternatively create a PyDelphiWrapper component using code,
   set its engine and module properties and initialize e.g.

    PyDelphiWrapper := TPyDelphiWrapper.Create(Self);
    PyDelphiWrapper.Engine := PyEngine;
    PyDelphiWrapper.Module := PythonModule;
    PyDelphiWrapper.Initialize;  // Should only be called if PyDelphiWrapper is created at run time

    Use PyDelphiWrapper.Wrap to wrap a given object
      var
        p : PPyObject;
      begin
        // Wrap the Form itself.
        p := PyDelphiWrapper.Wrap(Form1);
        PythonModule.SetVar( 'Form', p );
        PyEngine.Py_DecRef(p);
      end;

     Look at the demos 31 and 32 for further examples of usage.

 History:
   1.00  24-Feb-2005  Kiriakos Vlahos
     Initial release

   1.01  12-May-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - inherit TPyDelphiWrapper from TPythonClient
  - removed type TPythonTypeCustomCreate as TPythonType now has a new attribute GenerateCreateFunction
    the custom types didn't use the former CanCreate property and thus CreateComponent conflicted
    with the function exposed by TPyDelphiWrapper.
  - changed the boolean parameter of TObjectToPyObject into an enumeration, to help understand
    when you read the code, if the object is owned or not.
  - added property __bound__ to TPyDelphiObject, to know if the wrapper is still bound to the instance.
  - added property __owned__ to the base Delphi wrapper, to know if the wrapper owns the underlying
    object or not.
  - added SqAssItem and SqSlice to the TStringsWrapper
  - moved method Show of the Form wrapper to the Control wrapper
  - added Exception's message to the exception raised in TPyDelphiMethodObject.Call
  - fixed bug in Collection iterator (method Iter and IterNext were swapped)
  - refactored iterators with a common base class
  - added automatic support of sequences and iterators if the wrapper overrides the GetContainerAccessClass method.
  - refactored index checking
  - implemented sequence protocol with more collections
  - used new class method SetupType for configuring the services exposed by the python type
    allowing better polymorphism.
  - TStrings wrapper now inherits from TPersistent wrapper.
  - Fixed bug in TStrings.SqItem that returned a string instead of a wrapped TObject.
  - Changed DelphiObject member field to a property and redefined its type for each subclass,
    in order to avoid casting DelphiObject each time need to invoke an attribute.
    This was too much error prone, especially with Copy&Paste.
  - Added various helper functions to check parameter types.
  - Allowed events with TObject subclasses, using an interfaces IFreeNotification/IFreeNotificationSubscriber
  - Added helper class TFreeNotificationImpl handling the details of the IFreeNotification implementation.
  - Fixed bug when accessing attributes of an unbound wrapper
  - Renamed TPyStringsObject into TPyDelphiStrings for consistency
  - Changed the TForm wrapper into a TCustomForm wrapper
  - Added helper methods ToTuple, ToList to any wrapper supporting sequences (TStrings, TComponent...)
  - Added Objects property to TStrings
  - TStrings can be accessed with an integer to get the string item or with a key string to get
    the associated object.

   1.02  23-May-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Wrapped TBasicAction
  - Wrapped TActionList
  - Wrapped Screen object
  - Defined TModalResult constants
  - fixed bug when exiting application with Python events still attached -> crash
  - fixed bug in event handlers: when destroying an event, only set the handler to nil if it is our handler!
  - created TEventHandlers collection
  - Moved code that gets/sets events outside of GetAttrO/SetAttrO into TEventHandlers
  - return the associated Python handler of an event (in TPyDelphiObject.GetAttrO)

   1.03  30-May-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Wrapped TMonitor
  - Wrapped TApplication
  - The wrappers now will try to receive a free notification from the wrapped object. This will always
    work with components and may work with classes that implement IFreeNotification.
  - Refactored the registration of wrappers and helper types.
    Now you don't have to create your TPythonType instance. This will be done automatically in the
    RegisterDelphiWrapper and RegisterHelperType methods.
    You can setup the new type by overriding the SetupType class method of TPyObject.
      procedure RegisterDelphiWrapper(AWrapperClass : TPyDelphiObjectClass);
      RegisterHelperType(APyObjectClass : TPyObjectClass);
    Also, note that RegisterDelphiClass as been renamed RegisterDelphiWrapper and there's no
    ne need to give the associated Delphi class, as the wrapper class will override a new
    class function named DelphiObjectClass that must return the wrapped delphi class.
  - Moved wrappers into new dedicated units for each Delphi VCL unit:
     WrapDelphiClasses, WrapDelphiControls, WrapDelphiForms, WrapDelphiActnList
  - Added a new registration system at the unit level, to allow each dedicated unit to register
    the wrappers of the unit's classes.
  - New way to define getters/setters by using Class methods instead of global functions,
    thanks to Michiel du Toit.

   1.04  30-May-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Made WrapDelphi compatible with previous versions of Delphi (below 7):
    all the wrapping features are available, and only the dynamic method invocation
    relying on {$METHODINFO ON} is disabled. Have to check compilation with D5 to D6.
  - Allowed subclassing of components. Introduced new wrappers for TForm and TButton.
  - Added new unit WrapDelphiStdCtrls

   1.05  11-June-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - renamed method TObjectToPyObject into Wrap
  - stored default wrapper types pointers into public properties of TPyDelphiWrapper,
    for immediate access (instead of doing a lookup in the list).
  - added class TPyDelphiVarParameter for handling Delphi var Parameters.
  - Defined event for TForm.OnCloseQuery
  - Defined event for TForm.OnClose

   1.06  13-June-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Created wrappers for all controls of the StdCtrls unit.
  - Created wrappers for all controls of the ExtCtrls unit in new unit WrapDelphiExtCtrls.
  - Added property __published__ to TPyDelphiObject, that will return the list of all published properties
    of the wrapped class. This can be use to know which properties can be accessed and for documenting...
  - Made Helper types visible at a module level, because Point, Rect... are helper types.
  - Added wrapper for TPoint
  - Implemented method TScreen.MonitorFromPoint using Point object.

   1.07  25-June-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - When creating an instance of a form (with a Python subclass of Form), if the Owner is Application,
    then we use Application.CreateForm instead of just instanciating the metaclass, otherwise the Application
    will never have a Main form.
  - Started making a Python dll module hosting the Delphi wrappers.
  - fixed a declaration error of the property setters in TApplication wrapper
  - Added method RegisterFunction to TPyDelphiWrapper
  - Wrapped api FreeConsole in WrapDelphiForms
  - Added method SetProps at the TPyDelphiObject level, allowing any wrapped object to do:
     button.SetProps(Left=10, Top=20, Caption='Clickme!)
  - Wrapped procedure Abort
  - Created new type for wrapping TRect records.
  - New behaviour with forms: if you subclass Form in Python and name your class with the same name as
    a Delphi form (that must be registered with RegisterClass), then this class will be used to instanciate
    the form instead of the regular empty TForm.
  - Added a fake get/set method to TPyDelphiObject and create get/set definitions for each published property, using
    those fake methods that won't do anything, because the property value will be fetched in the GetAttr method,
    before even trying to use the python properties.
    This will help a lot documenting existing wrappers, using regular python tools, and it will also allow the
    use of the code insight provided by the IDE.

    1.08  16-July-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Added method BindMethodsToEvents to TComponent wrapper. It will allow a subclassed form
    to automatically bind its controls to the form's methods, if you respect a specific naming
    convention. Each method must be named like:
    def handle_MyComponent_OnClick(self, sender): pass

    Note that for the hooking the form's properties, you have to use a special component name "Self":
    def handle_Self_OnCloseQuery(self, sender, CanClose): pass

    Note that BindMethodsToEvents accepts a default parameter for specifying the expected prefix,
    which defaults to "handle_".

    Note that BindMethodsToEvents returns a list of tuples. Each tuple contains:
    ComponentName, EventName, MethodObject

    This method is especially useful if you create a base form in Delphi, using the form designer,
    with no code (or not much), then you subclass this form in Python, provide events that will
    be automatically be connected when you invoke BindMethodsToEvents in the __init__ handler.

  - Finished cleanup of the property getters (global function --> method)

    1.09  18-Dec-2005 Morgan Martinet

  - Added new unit WrapDelphiWindows (to define a couple of symbols only)
  - Added new unit WrapDelphiComCtrls
  - Added new unit WrapDelphiGrids
  - Added new unit WrapDelphiGraphics
  - Added new unit WrapDelphiButtons
  - Wrapped TSize
  - Wrapped TCanvas, TGraphic, TBitmap, TMetaFile, TIcon, TPicture
  - Wrapped TKeyPressEvent and TKeyEvent
  - Made a breaking change when dealing with property sets:
    now we expect a sequence of strings. Each string should have the name as the enumeration in the set.
    Ex:  MainForm.Anchors = ['akLeft', 'akTop']
    Of course, a set property will now return a list of strings.
    In the past, it would have returned an integer containing all the bits of the set,
    and it would have accepted to assign either the same kind of integer value or
    a string like "[akLeft, akTop]".
  - Made a breaking change when dealing with property enumerations:
    return a string representing its value instead of the ordinal value.
  - You don't need to call explicitely RegisterClass for your registered Python types as it will be done
    automatically for you in RegisterDelphiWrapper. But it is still usefull if you need to create VCL objects
    that have no wrapper, using the CreateComponent helper function.

    1.10  24-Feb-2006 Morgan Martinet

  - Wrapped TPageControl and TTabSheet

    1.11  14-Mar-2006 Morgan Martinet

  - Added methods Repaint and Invalidate to the TControl wrapper
  - Fixed bug when running WrapDelphi without Assertions in the compiler options
    thanks to a report from Dominique Whali
  - made fields fDefaultIterType and fDefaultContainerType of TPyDelphiWrapper protected

    Oct-2019 PyScripter
  - Major refactoring and clean-up
  - In Delhi version newer than XE, enhanced RTTI is used to provide access to
    methods, fields and properties.  So in most cases you no longer need to
    create wrapping classes.
  - __published__ property was replaced with the implementation of the __dir__()
    method, so that you can do for example dir(MainForm) to inspect the
    methods, fields and properties of MainForm.
  - Demo 31 has been updated to test/showcase some of the new features.

    Apr-2020 PyScripter
  - Wrapping of Records using extended RTTI
  - Wrapping of Interfaces using extended RTTI (see unit tests)

    2021
    - FMX Wrapping by Lucas Belo
    - Vcl Menu and Toolbar wrapping by PyScripter
 TODO:
  - Extend SetProps: if property receiving the value is a TStrings and the value a sequence,
    then assign the sequence content to the TStrings.
  - can we debug the Python code executed from a triggered event? Presently not, as we directly ask Python
    to execute a specific callable...
  - Create a simple app that just initializes Python and executes a script? To avoid having a console...
  - Bug with Delphi pyd: can't change the application title, because TApplication creates its own handle
  - Wrap TApplicationEvents. In fact define the events used by TApplicationEvents.
  - Wrap TObjectList
  - Unit Test all exposed attributes
  - Wrap simple types like TMessage
  - Generate Documentation from available metainformation (see __members__, ClassName...)
  - Allow Wrappers to handle IFreeNotification for the wrapped object when the object does not
    support it, only when the wrapper knows that it is safe enough (singleton delphi object)
  - Be able to return an object containing the current event handler of any Delphi object that was hooked by Delphi,
    and not by Python, as presently, if a button has a Delphi OnClick event, inspecting this event from Python
    will return None.
