I have been compiling in linux with gcc 12 without a problem.
It seems that
FARPROCis a windows thing: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-callwindowprocw@MehdiChinoune Do you understand what changed in gcc / clang to make this code fail? Do we need a windows specific version of this function?
MehdiChinoune commentedon Sep 19, 2022
Nothing has changed. the previous version (3.5.3) could be built by both gcc-12 and clang-14, It is matplotlib that changed in e1fcc90

🐑 fair enough. I forgot we had done some work on that file, sorry for answering without doing my due diligence of checking git-blame.
