How to patch a constructor?

[pyscripter 684]

In an older post I showed how to patch a virtual/non virtual, public/private method.   A recently came across an Vcl bug that requires patching a non-virtual constructor.   Does anyone know how to do that?

You don't want to do that - try solving your issue in AfterConstruction or otherwise.

 

Code generated for constructors is more than meets the eye - replicating that without mistakes can be quite the endeavor.

@Stefan Glienke Thanks. Would you happen know whether you can patch message methods?   The only thing I could find is an old article Hallvard's Blog: Hack#15: Overriding message and dynamic methods at run-time (hallvards.blogspot.com).
