TMainMenu/TMenuItem bug?

[Michael Lang <mwlang@mindspring.com>]

Hello,

I attempting to add sub-menus at run-time and it appears that I cannot
perform this simple task with C++.  At least not the way I do it in Delphi.
 As near as I can tell, I am implementing the code correctly according to
on-line help.  Examination of the VCL source code revealed an awful mess of
code that I'm still trying to decipher.

I have attached two very simple projects.  One is the correctly working
Delphi version.  The second is the equivalent C++ project.  From what I can
tell of the VCL source and from on-line help, TMainMenu->Items is supposed
to return TMenuItem*, but instead appears to be returning TMenuItem.  In
any event, I cannot dereference past TMainMenu->Items[0] even though
TMainMenu->Items->Count is greater than 1.

This looks like a genuine bug.  Can anyone verify this or tell me what I'm
doing wrong?

Regards,

Michael
