The definition is TFPReportColor = type UInt32;
That was designed and defined to handle AARRGGBB values of $FFFFFFFF (max 256 for each color channel and alpha), and that fits perfectly in a UInt32 data type.
Should the definition for TFPReportColor not better TFPColor
I can't remember from memory. Is TFPColor the one where each color channel is a Word size (ie: $FFFF)? When I wrote fpReport, that color range was note designed for and I've never seen in used in the real-world either.
Because UInt32 is not a JSON dataformat.
Well, then I'll say that FPC's JSON needs to be extended to support UInt32, as it is a perfectly valid Object Pascal data type.
