    It’s not anything to do with the return value. Without looking at the source, I suspect that when compiling for Windows:

    • XN_C_API gets defined to either __declspec(dllexport) or __declspec(dllimport) depending on whether you’re compiling the DLL or importing functions from it.

    • XN_C_DECL gets defined to the desired calling convention for the function (probably __stdcall or __cdecl)
