_____________________________________
When C<TYPE> contains a Win32::API::Struct type declared with
L<Win32::API::Struct/typedef> with " *" postfixed to C<TYPE> parameter,
C<NAME> will be a alias for the pointer version of the struct type.
Creating an alias for a struct type is not supported, you have to call
L<Win32::API::Struct/typedef> again. Passing a struct type as C<TYPE>
without the " *" postfix is not supported.
