Advice for Win32 Wrapper Crate
crates.io·15w·
Discuss: r/rust

I've been slowly working on a wrapper crate for Win32 which I am calling Win64. I am still pretty novice at Win32, so this is also a way for me to learn the deeper guts of Windows programming. I mainly had two questions:

  1. Does anyone have any learning materials they can recommend, especially for those unique, oddball APIs and behaviors which may not be documented well (if at all)?
  2. Does anyone have any recommendations for how to test alternate versions of Windows? Would I have to spin up VMs for older versions I intend on supporting?

I know people are inevitably going to review my code, so I will brace myself for a good thrashing, haha.
