Winapi is no longer updated, windows-rs is supported by Microsoft themselves. Imo it's worth switching as more people will likely be using Microsofts crate instead of the old winapi one. That's one less dependency to download :D

Duplicate of #357

I still think this should be considered, especially since windows-rs lets you easily generate standalone bindings now.

My opinion on the topic(#357 (comment)) stands the same, in other words, I would consider merging a PR with windows-rs if

  • there are some benchmarks on compilation time after/before the migration
  • clean compilation time(the one after cargo clean) did not change/became faster
