Module windows

Platform-specific extensions to std for Windows.

Provides access to platform-level information for Windows, and exposes Windows-specific idioms that would otherwise be inappropriate as part the core std library. These extensions allow developers to use std types and idioms with Windows in a way that the normal platform-agnostic idioms would not normally support.

Examples

use std::fs::File;
use std::os::windows::prelude::*;

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> {
    let f = File::create("foo.txt")?;
    let handle = f.as_raw_handle();

    // use handle with native windows bindings

    Ok(())
}
