[Mingw-w64-public] GUID definition in guiddef.h

[Vincent T. <vin...@gm...>]

Hello

in guiddef.h, a GUID is a struct organized as : 4 bytes, 2 bytes 2
bytes and 8 times 1 byte

but according to
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd354925.aspx at the bottom :

"The correct format of the GUID string is
{CDEF7890-ABCD-1234-ABCD-1234567890AB} where 0-9, A-F symbolizes
hexadecimal digits. "

that is, the GUID structure should be organized as : 4 bytes, 2 bytes
2 bytes 2 bytes and 6 times 1 byte

is it normal that the GUID structure does not follow the MSDN doc ?
