删除delphi组件TStringlist中的重复项目

procedure RemoveDuplicates(const stringList : TStringList) ;
 var
   buffer: TStringList;
   cnt: Integer;
 begin
   stringList.Sort;
   buffer := TStringList.Create;
   try
     buffer.Sorted := True;
     buffer.Duplicates := dupIgnore;
     buffer.BeginUpdate;
     for cnt := 0 to stringList.Count - 1 do
       buffer.Add(stringList[cnt]) ;
     buffer.EndUpdate;
     stringList.Assign(buffer) ;
   finally
     FreeandNil(buffer) ;
   end;
 end;
