作为参数的开放数组, 有时数组的成员类型是不确定的, 此时应该使用 array of const 定义; 详细举例:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

unit Unit1;

interface

uses
Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,
Dialogs, StdCtrls;

type
TForm1 = class(TForm)
Button1: TButton;
Button2: TButton;
procedure Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
procedure Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
end;

var
Form1: TForm1;

implementation

{$R *.dfm}

{把不同数据类型返回字符串的函数}
function Fun1(arr: array of const): string;
var
i: Integer;
begin
Result := '';
for i := Low(arr) to High(arr) do
begin
case arr[i].VType of
vtInteger : Result := Result + IntToStr(arr[i].VInteger) + ' ';
vtBoolean : Result := Result + BoolToStr(arr[i].VBoolean, True) + ' ';
vtChar : Result := Result + arr[i].VChar + ' ';
vtExtended : Result := Result + FloatToStr(arr[i].VExtended^) + ' ';

end;
end;
end;

{简化上一个函数}
function Fun2(const arr: array of const): string;
var
i: Integer;
const
n = #32;
begin
Result := '';
for i := Low(arr) to High(arr) do with arr[i] do
begin
case VType of

15: Result := Result + PWideChar(VWideString) + n;
16: Result := Result + IntToStr(VInt64^) + n;

{获取类型名的函数}
function Fun3(const arr: array of const): string;
var

14: Result := Result + 'Interface' + n;
15: Result := Result + 'WideString'+ n;

end;
end;
end;

{测试}
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
a: Integer;
b: Boolean;
c: Char;
d: Extended;
e: ShortString;
f: Pointer;
g: PChar;
h: TButton;
i: TClass;
j: WideChar;
k: PWideChar;
l: AnsiString;
m: Currency;
n: Variant;
o: IInterface;
p: WideString;
q: Int64;
begin
a := 1;
b := True;
c := 'a';
d := 2;
e := 'S';
f := Pointer(3);
g := 'P';
h := TButton(Sender);
i := TForm;
j := #19975;
k := '一';
l := 'A';
m := 4;
n := 5;
//o;
p := '万一';
q := 7;

ShowMessage(Fun1([a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q]));
ShowMessage(Fun2([a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q]));
{结果如下:}
{1 True a 2 S 3 P TButton TForm 万 一 A 4 5 0 万一 7 }

ShowMessage(Fun3([a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,q]));
{结果如下:
Integer
Boolean
Char
Extended
String
Pointer
PChar
Object
Class
WideChar
PWideChar
AnsiString
Currency
Variant
Interface
WideString
Int64
}
end;

{我试试没有在 TVarRec 中的类型是怎么归类的}
procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
var
a: Byte;
b: Word;
c: Cardinal;
d: Double;
e: Real;
f: TStrings;
begin
ShowMessage(Fun3([a,b,c,d,e,f]));
{结果如下:
Integer
Integer
Integer
Extended
Extended
Object
}
end;

end.

从这个例子中还能得到的启示是(根据网友的提示, 下面可能理解错了!):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

//不超过 4 字节的简单类型, 在内存中只有一个存放处.
Integer;
Boolean;
Char;
WideChar;

//超过 4 字节的类型(包括字符串), 在内存中有两个存放处: 一个是指针位置; 一个是数据位置.
Int64;
Extended;
Currency;
Variant;
ShortString;
AnsiString;
WideString;

//指针: 只有 4 字节大小.
Pointer;
PChar(PAnsiChar);
PWideChar;

//对象: 复杂了...
Object
Class;
IInterface;
