adding the headers for those types

The dilemma of having one Header file for all types, or having the types all over the place. For example Igor the 7-zip guy had them all in one file, a file that was pulled in by most of the other headers.

Speaking of reproduction this comes to mind from Stallman:

If I’m the father of Open Source, it was conceived through artificial insemination using stolen sperm without my knowledge or consent.

Out of interest, Unreal engine uses MinWindows.h. πŸ™‚
Yep, atol might do it, and then convert it to either of these. Or bitshift?

#include <windows.h>

AFAIKS there are six instances where this wants to be changed.
Put it where, for example, a file is to be opened so you get the file name – here’s the function. πŸ™‚

In ScrollCall there’s:
