Description

enum Foobar {
  Foo = 0,
  Bar = 1,
  Baz = 2,
}

struct SomeStruct {
  1 : optional double MinValue
  2 : optional double MaxValue
  3 : optional bool Integer  // causes issue
  4 : optional Foobar Foo
}

generates uncompileable delphi code around field #4 (not 3!), because of a type cast that uses unqualified Integer.

Workaround: don't name the field "Integer" ...
