 * The TCompositeControl class is an abstract class that provides naming
 * container and control designer functionality for custom controls that
 * encompass child controls in their entirety or use the functionality of other
 * controls. You cannot use this class directly.
 * 
 * To create a custom composite control, derive from the CompositeControl class.
 * The functionality this class provides is built-in verification that child
 * controls have been created prior to being accessed
