Message <Context> compatibility of a pointer to void and a pointer to a function is not portable under the C standard. Description The C standard defines pointer to void as being assignment compatible only with pointers to object or incomplete types. An implementation may represent function pointers in a way that cannot be stored in a pointer to void (or vice-versa). Thus even an explicit cast between a function pointer and a pointer to void is not portable. User Action If a generic pointer to function is needed, declare a typedef for some pointer to function type, and always use explicit casts to assign to and from that type.
