@elBoberido I don't have windows to check the build :(

Can you please add this to the end of the bugfix section of iceoryx-unreleased.md

ssize_t: redefinition; different basic types [#2209](https://github.com/eclipse-iceoryx/iceoryx/issues/2209)

It also seems that you need to run clang-format on the changed files.

Btw, the git hooks would take care of this. Have a look at tools/git-hooks/Readme.md

I just tried it locally with msvc and also mingw and it worked. I think it was just an intermediate problem. Can you revert that change to see if the CI has an other opinion :)

Oh, sorry. I was not precise enough. With revert the changes I actually meant to replace mqd_t with iox_ssize_t. Can you please do that for the two functions. With the current code it would be to replace ssize_t with iox_ssize_t.

Can you then also please squash the last three commits.
