We want to ensure the min and max macros provided by <windef.h> are suppressed. We've been doing that by #undef'ing those names in globalDefinitions.hpp. We've further been poisoning those macro names with "#define min min" and similarly for max, to ensure include ordering doesn't permit the windef.h macros from unexpectedly sneaking in anyway, expecting a clear compile-time error if they do.
Because of
we need to remove the macro poisoning. A better solution for the Windows-specific problem would be to remove the #undefs and use the specifically documented for this purpose NOMINMAX macro to suppress the windef.h definitions. That macro should be defined via the build system.
