Delphi的RTL自身就带有一套非常好的资源持久化保存（IDE设计窗口时，保存为DFM格式及编译到EXE里面的资源文件）及恢复机制（EXE启动时对窗口资源的载入），那么应不是必需再额外用xml/json格式保存程序的參数了。我们大能够将參数集中在一个參数类里面，然后通过这套机制进行保存及恢复。

    因为我们的參数类型可能五花八门。除了传统的整数、小数、字符串、true/false、还有可能是数组、列表、枚举等，则须要override DefineProperties这个函数来自己定义属性的保存及恢复。废话少说，给出代码，此代码演示了怎样自己定义数据的保存及恢复、以及保存整个Form：
