Compile problem for 64 bit

Hi

If I try to compile one of my projects for 64 bit with Delphi XE2, I get the following 2 errors in siDialog.pas:

[DCC Error] siDialog.pas(1678): E2089 Invalid typecast
[DCC Error] siDialog.pas(1684): E2089 Invalid typecast

This 2 lines are part of procedure TsiBrowseForFolder.DoShow;

The problem seems to be that 64bit long variables are casted to LongInt which is still 32 bit:

SendMessage(FHandle, WM_SETTEXT, 0, LongInt(FDialogCaption));
SendMessage(FHandle, BFFM_SETSELECTION, LongInt(True), LongInt(FSelectedDir));

Would it be better to cast it to NativeInt? Because that is 32bit long for 32bit executables, and 64 bit long for 64 bit executables.

Best Regards
Ottiger Daniel

Hello,

Do you use the latest version?
Yes, there should be used NativeInt. This is already done in the latest version.

I use version 6.5.4.1, is this not the latest version ?

I download it again (i do not get the same binary for whatever reason).
I uninstalled it, installed it again, but the 2 lines in siDialog still have LongInt?

Am I doing something wrong?

I'm sorry. It looks like the source file for siDialog unit was incorrect in the install package. Please re-download the setup from our web site. We've re-built the setup.
