I have been getting these errors which is frustrating

cef3/cef3types.pas(1032,3) Error: (3352) Enumeration symbols can only
have values in the range of -2^31 to 2^31-1
cef3/cef3types.pas(1186,40) Error: (3352) Enumeration symbols can only

if anyone wondering CEF 3.3.3029 is the latest for fpCEF

I'm disappointed.  If the Soviets during the cold war had known that a
few compiler error messages could baffle James Bond, the Queen would
have been in trouble.

Good.  James Bond is back, the Queen is safe.

I just ran into the same problem (also CEF, same version), that made
me think, why earlier versions of FP supported 64 bit enum types, and
not anymore...

Earlier versions did not support them. That it might have worked
nevertheless was simply a bug/oversight. Enums only support the range
Low(LongInt) .. High(LongInt).
