If you want to "turn a function pointer into a type", you don't need the boost library. Just use typedef; it's simpler and doesn't require any extra libraries.

Isn't boost library C++? Why do you mention it in a C question?

For functions that use a different calling convention, place the calling convention before the first *. Like this: typedef void(__stdcall* funcPtr)(int arg1, int arg2);
