    Source position: classesh.inc line 2701

    public 
destructor TComponent.Destroy;  override;

    Description

    Destroy sends a opRemove notification to all components in the free-notification list. After that, all owned components are destroyed by calling DestroyComponents (and hence removed from the list of owned components). When this is done, the component removes itself from its owner's child component list. After that, the parent's destroy method is called.
