Example Pattern:

procedure SaveObjectToBinary(const AObject: TPersistent; const AFileName: string);
var
  FileStream: TFileStream;
  MemStream: TMemoryStream;
begin
  MemStream := TMemoryStream.Create;
  try
    // Write the object properties to the memory stream
    // (Simplified logic using standard Delphi streaming)
    MemStream.WriteComponent(AObject);
// Save to disk
    FileStream := TFileStream.Create(AFileName, fmCreate);
    try
      MemStream.Position := 0;
      FileStream.CopyFrom(MemStream, MemStream.Size);
    finally
      FileStream.Free;
    end;
  finally
    MemStream.Free;
  end;
