I changed the defines to:

#ifdef _WIN32
#include <io.h>
#include <Windows.h>
#else
#include <unistd.h>
#include <dlfcn.h>
#endif

<Windows.h> was missing and <dlfcn.h> should be UNIX only. Then the code finally compiled on my Windows machine.

However, the Tcl error was still present (see screenshot).

Since I'm only using Pd >= 47, I skipped the DLL loading mechanism in check_compat() and just wrote:

iemgui_all_loadcolors_p = &iemgui_all_loadcolors

Now [mknob] is finally working again for me - thanks to Antoine and IOhannes!!!.

My question is now: Should I upload my Windows binaries to deken, with a notice that it only works for Pd >= 47
OR shall we wait for a solution which works for both old and new versions of Pd?

Knobs have been used in quite a lot of projects and it's shame that they won't work on recent versions of Pd right know. I can try myself to repair it (since we know the cause and possible solutions) but my C skills are not exactly amazing. Maybe we can join forces to repair these objects?
