// This file replaces poorly-named #defines from windows.h with properly-namespaced versions, so
// that they no longer conflict with similarly-named identifiers in other namespaces.
//
// This file must be #included some time after windows.h has been #included but before any attempt
// to use the names for other purposes. However, this can be difficult to determine in header
// files. Typically KJ / Cap'n Proto headers avoid including windows.h at all, but may use
// conflicting identifiers. In order to relieve application developers from the need to include
// windows-sanity.h themselves, we would like these headers to conditionally apply the fixes if
// and only if windows.h was already included. Therefore, this header checks if windows.h has been
// included and only applies fixups if this is the case. Furthermore, this header is designed such
// that it can be included multiple times, and the fixups will be applied the first time it is
// included *after* windows.h.
//
// Now, as long as any headers which need to use conflicting identifier names be sure to #include
// windows-sanity.h, we can be sure that no conflicts will occur regardless of in what order the
// application chooses to include these headers vs. windows.h.

#elif defined(_INC_WINDOWS)

// to do this once, but we can't do it until windows.h has been included. Since that has happened
// now, we use `#pragma once` to tell the compiler never to include this file again.
