Jens Geyer updated THRIFT-5625:
-------------------------------
Description:
If both {{SysUtils}} and {{Thrift.Utils}} units are used in a certain file, it
is not possible to use all {{TGuid}} extension methods, since Delphi only
allows for one {{record helper for TGuid}} at a time and will pick the most
appropriate one and simply ignore the other. This might break compatibility.
To make it worse, while class helpers can be inherited, record helpers can not
... and TGuid is a record type.
