  • windows-registry 0.4.0
  • windows-result 0.3.0

  • cppwinrt 0.2.0

Minor crate updates:

  • windows-version 0.1.2

Excluded:

  • windows-sys 0.59.0

Things to keep in mind:

  • The tag/release names no longer map directly to the crate versions, so to find samples for a particular release requires looking at the releases page and finding the release that most recently updated a particular crate.

  • The windows-bindgen crate includes the major code generation overhaul that brings many improvements - be sure to check out the PR description for more information. The resulting code gen depends on the new version of windows-core and its dependencies, unless you include the --sys option. #​3359

  • The cppwinrt crate constitutes a major update due to streamlining the error handling. #​3415

  • The windows-registry, windows-strings, and windows-result crates are also major version updates since they include small breaking changes.

  • The windows-targets crate finally receives a major version update, the first in over a year. This is due to #​3359 and #​3342 potentially introducing breaking changes. Although unlikely, these updates introduced sufficient changes that make it hard to ensure that the windows-targets libs don't break existing code. As we're updating windows-targets anyway, I took the liberty to bump the MSRV to 1.60 - to match the latest version of windows-sys - and remove the old but unused doc macro feature. Both remained for compatibility with very old dependents of the windows-targets crate.

  • The windows-version crate receives a minor update to update its dependency on the windows-targets crate.

  • Beyond these specifics, this update is the culmination of around 6 months worth of work on the windows-rs project. The biggest improvements comes from the new code generation engine, but many other improvements are now also available for production. This includes support for many new lints, warnings, and suggestions provided by the Rust toolchain; much smaller code gen thanks to deriving many more traits; more efficient code gen; major improvements to WinRT type system and implementation support; more robust and consistent error handling; stock collection and async support; improved support for class hierarchies; and much more!
