In Delphi XE 5 it seems fixed and added for integer, shortint etc also.
Also i tried it for my own type (record), made a helper for it and it works also Ok.

tmyrec=record

sugu:boolean;
end;

myrechelper=record helper for tmyrec

function tostring: string;
end;

function myrechelper.tostring: string;
begin
result := booltostr(self.sugu);
end;


 Nice stuff

 Dunno about most recent releases. I have free starter edition in my other computer.
