Clement Rouault added the comment:
Because `QWORD` is not defined in any file included by CPython. The main file
for basic sized type definition in Windows is:
basetsd.h: Type definitions for the basic sized types.
which contains the definition of `DWORD64`: `typedef unsigned __int64 DWORD64,
*PDWORD64;`
but no reference to `QWORD`. Furthemore the code did not compile with the use
of `QWORD`.
So, I am pretty sure it is not defined by the standard includes
Other people complain in your link:
> "Apparently, QWORD isn't defined in any of the windows header files for
MSVC 2010."
Finally, the only files where I could find a typedef for `QWORD` are:
* Include\shared\Sspi.h (Security Support Provider Interface. Prototypes
and structure definitions)
* Include\um\WinDNS.h (Domain Name System (DNS). DNS definitions and DNS
API.)
* Include\um\wmcodecdsp.h (COM interface -> generated code)
* Include\um\wmnetsourcecreator.h (COM interface -> generated code)
* Include\um\wmnetsourcecreator.idl (MIDL Interface Definition File)
* Include\um\wmsdkidl.h (COM interface -> generated code)
* Include\um\wmsdkidl.idl (MIDL Interface Definition File)
* Include\um\mfobjects.h (COM interface -> generated code)
* Include\um\Mfobjects.idl (MIDL Interface Definition File)
It seems to be in pretty obscure files that should not be included by CPython
(In my opinion)
