When building libcoap with mingw, I noticed that coap_session_get_ifindex() always return zero. In the code, it looks like this is always set to zero if HAVE_STRUCT_CMSGHDR is unset in line:
libcoap/src/coap_io.c
Line 1165 in 7d5e5f3
Wouldn't -1 be a better value to indicate an undefined value?
If libcoap is built for Windows without mingw, HAVE_STRUCT_CMSGHDR is always defined. In this PR, I removed the special handling of mingw, added a few aliases and the code seems to work with HAVE_STRUCT_CMSGHDR defined and mingw.
