<Gripe>This question has probably been asked several times over the years but searching for Delphi related info gets harder and harder as time goes by.

When I import a type library for a COM visible .NET library and I choose to generate component wrappers, many of the property setters show the following comment:
{ Warning: The property TicketNumber has a setter and a getter whose
types do not match. Delphi was unable to generate a property of
this sort and so is using a Variant as a passthrough. }
Questions:
- The setter and getter types *do* match so why is Delphi doing this?
- Does using the variant imply late binding? I believe so but want to make sure.
- This is done for all WideString properties and properties whey the type is itself and interface. Why?
Thanks for you help
