COM constructors / destructors ..

Hello;

Whilst experimenting with COM (for the first time), I have hit a snag. I
would like the COM object to perform some actions in its initialisation and
destruction.

I have added 'Constructor Create' and Destructor Destory' events to the COM
object, but that code never gets compiled! I have also tried to implement
the 'AfterConstruction' event, but get the same outcome.

My only current option is to Create two new methods and actively call them
from the Client!

If you can offer any advice I'd be very grateful,
Thanking-you

public
procedure initialize; override;
destructor Destroy; override;
end;
..
procedure initialize;
begin
inherited Initialize;
..
end;

Destructor Destroy;
begin
..
inherited Destroy;
end;
