winapi
has not been updated for four years.windows-sys
seems to have a good maintainer.winit
also useswindows-sys
.The Windows API calls are not changed. It just uses a different bindings library.
Alternative
I tried to remove the Windows API calls from this crate. As stated in a comment,
winit
can do some of the work, but I was unable to fixwinit
enough to use that. My poor knowledge of Windows API doesn't help with that.
