stdcall and cdecl are 32-bit Windows calling conventions. On x64 and arm64, as on all other platforms we support, there is just one calling convention. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions#Microsoft_x64_calling_convention.

I am sure __stdcall is ignored by the compiler on x64 or arm64.
