I never looked at that but I assume the same holds true as above.
The following thread has some interesting details: http://www.daniweb.com/software-development/c/threads/114052/warning-c4305-t...
Anyway, the patch shouldn't hurt, PSDK headers have similar casts. This
In this specific case it doesn't. Start littering the code with casts to get rid of all those warnings and it will majorly hurt. Unneeded casts are *BAD*; worse then ignoring bogus warnings from a compiler.
Obviosuly I'm not planning to add the casts everywhere, but the inline constructs which specifically targeting the pointer to integer conversions that imply truncation should compile without warnings IMHO.
