Summary
SUMMARY: Bugfixes "Fix a cast error with Windows gcc-based compilers."
Purpose of change
An error happens when a gcc based compiler on Windows is trying to compile the game. The error is related to casting the result of
GetProcAddress
to a function pointer. This is legitimate on Windows, but some compiler (MINGW; MSYS2; etc.) still raise an error about it.Many thanks to ZhilkinSerg and jbtw for providing help on this topic.
Describe the solution
static const
to string vectors (not related to the error, but suggested by ZhilkinSerg).Describe alternatives you've considered
N/A.
