(Under construction.)
procedure Initialize (var Aynthing);
Initialize does all necessary initializations for the
parameter (e.g., setting of string and schema discriminants, and
object VMT pointers, initialization of file variables). This is
normally done automatically at the start of the lifetime of a
variable, so you need to call Initialize only in special
situations, e.g. when you allocate a dynamic variable with
GetMem rather than New.
Initialize is a Borland Delphi extension.
