+ Note about RC_INVOKED
+
+ - RC_INVOKED is predefined symbol of rc.exe (the resource compiler which is part of MSVC/Visual Studio).
+   https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/menurc/predefined-macros
+
+ - Since rc.exe is a legacy compiler, it truncates long symbol (> 30 chars)
+   and reports warning "RC4011: identifier truncated".
+
+ - To eliminate the warning, we surround long preprocessor symbol with
+   "#if !defined(RC_INVOKED) ... #endif" block that means
+   "skip this block when rc.exe is trying to read it".
