Thanks for looking into it.
I guess I could then delay this decision in the idl file like this:

cpp_quote("#ifdef _WIN64")
cpp_quote("typedef long ADO_LONGPTR;")
cpp_quote("#else")
cpp_quote("typedef __int64 ADO_LONGPTR;")
cpp_quote("#endif")

But then the type is not known to widl:

.../include/msado15_backcompat.idl:639: error: type 'ADO_LONGPTR' not found in global namespace

How has such a type made known to widl?

Kind regards,
Bernhard
