I'm trying to build my project (wpilib) on windows, coming from linux where it works fine. I installed mingw, but that didn't seem to have all the threading stuff I'm using, so I deleted it and installed mingw-x64. That got me further, but now I'm stuck here.

For some reason, adding the following to all my .cpp files seems to have fixed that particular problem. I've noticed that everyone seems to be putting this at the top, but I don't see the connection between this and
UINT_PTR
, which is defined inbasetsd.h
If anyone figure out why this fixes it, I'd love to know
