From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 13:24:39 GMT Subject: [PATCH 3/4] mingw: squash another warning about a cast Message-ID: <8075ca3dff83486406b05b1701d025727ab86da9.1452864241.git.johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> In-Reply-To: MSys2's compiler is correct that casting a "void *" to a "DWORD" loses precision, but in the case of pthread_exit() we know that the value fits into a DWORD. Just like casting handles to DWORDs, let's work around this issue by casting to "intrptr_t" first, and immediately cast to the final type.
