loadlibrary does not understand Microsoft-specific pointer modifiers

Code:

 typedef void * POINTER_64 PVOID64;

Result:

Type 'intvoidPtr__ptr64' was not found. Defaulting to type error.

Code:

 typedef __nullterminated WCHAR UNALIGNED *LPUWSTR, *PUWSTR;

Result:

Type 'intWCHAR__unalignedPtr' was not found. Defaulting to type voidPtr.

Code:

DECLSPEC_IMPORT signed WINAPI foo (LPVOID);

Result:

Type '' was not found. Defaulting to type error.

Does your header file include windows.h? Loadlibrary requires standalone header files. All necessary prerequisite headers must be included at the top of the header file.

To resolve this add the needed includes to your header or create a new header with include statements for both headers and add an add header option to your loadlibrary command.

 loadlibrary myheader libname addheader originalheaderName

My header #includes windows.h.
