Delphi OSX64 changes broken FPC compilation

[zpeterson]

The changes to IdCompilerDefines.inc in SVN revs 5500-5505 broke compiling Indy for 64-bit OS X under Free Pascal.  Prior to those changes, THANDLE was set to THANDLE_32 for both 32-bit and 64-bit OS X builds, but Embarcadero's patch and subsequent changes switched it to THANDLE_CPUBITS.  Compiling IdGlobal.pas with Free Pascal 3.3.1 now fails in InterlockedExchangeTHandle, line 4487 with the error "Typecast has different size (4 -> 8) in assignment" on the VTarget cast.

EDIT: Since it dropped the "$ELSE" clause, it looks like it's also undefined for any non-Apple BSD variants, but we don't compile for those so I'm not sure.

Indy does not use SVN anymore. The latest code is now on Indy's GitHub repository going forward.

That was fixed a month ago in Indy's GitHub repo (commit #39b514b). See this ticket for discussion.

Ah, ok, thanks.

In that case, the problem is that the "Development Snapshot" link on https://www.indyproject.org/download/v10/ points to the old website content that still refers to the SVN repository.

Yes, I'm aware of that, and I stated as much in the blog post I linked to in my previous reply above:

Indy’s main website has not been updated yet to reflect this new information. Though there is a link to the GitHub repository in the download section for the dev snapshot.
