lazyload.h: fix warnings about mismatching function pointer types

j6t · gitster · commit d2c470f9bc41 · 2021-09-27T09:31:59.000-07:00
Here, GCC warns about every use of the INIT_PROC_ADDR macro, for example:

In file included from compat/mingw.c:8:
compat/mingw.c: In function 'mingw_strftime':
compat/win32/lazyload.h:38:12: warning: assignment to
   'size_t (*)(char *, size_t,  const char *, const struct tm *)'
   {aka 'long long unsigned int (*)(char *, long long unsigned int,
      const char *, const struct tm *)'} from incompatible pointer type
   'FARPROC' {aka 'long long int (*)()'} [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
   38 |  (function = get_proc_addr(&amp;proc_addr_##function))
      |            ^
compat/mingw.c:1014:6: note: in expansion of macro 'INIT_PROC_ADDR'
 1014 |  if (INIT_PROC_ADDR(strftime))
      |      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(message wrapped for convenience). Insert a cast to keep the compiler
happy. A cast is fine in these cases because they are generic function
pointer values that have been looked up in a DLL.
