// It contains informations on the real remote object as:               //
//  - Object Properties (i.e. file stat if the object is a TSystemFile) //
//  - Object Name                                                       //
//  - Class Name                                                        //
//  - TKey Object Name (if the remote object is a TKey)                 //
//  - TKey Class Name (if the remote object is a TKey)                  //
//  - Remote object address                                             //
