From: Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget Date: Thu, 13 Jun 2019 11:49:44 GMT Subject: [PATCH 1/4] poll (mingw): allow compiling with GCC 8 and DEVELOPER=1 Message-ID: In-Reply-To: From: Johannes Schindelin The return type of the `GetProcAddress()` function is `FARPROC` which evaluates to `long long int (*)()`, i.e. it cannot be cast to the correct function signature by GCC 8. To work around that, we first cast to `void *` and go on with our merry lives.
