FILETIME on x64 question.

I'm using my FILETIME structure for interop. It seems to work on my comp ,but will I have some problems on x64 architectures?

C#

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Explicit)]
public struct FILETIME
{
    [FieldOffset(0)]
    public int dwLowDateTime;
    [FieldOffset(4)]
    public int dwHighDateTime;
    [FieldOffset(0)]
    public long QuadDateTime;
}

I'm accessing quad part of the structure instead of low and high separately for converting between DateTime.

Look at pinvoke.net FILETIME (Structures)[^]

FILETIME is defined as:

C#

[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
struct FILETIME {
    public uint DateTimeLow;
    public uint DateTimeHigh;
}

With no FieldOffSet. But it depends on what Win32 function you are calling that returns a FILETIME.
