windows-sys 0.61.x consistently uses raw-dylib for importing APIs from Windows DLLs. This makes a huge difference when using non-MSVC toolchains to build Windows binaries, e.g. x86_64-pc-windows-gnullvm.

  • Tested on all platforms changed
  • Added an entry to the changelog module if knowledge of this change could be valuable to users
  • Updated documentation to reflect any user-facing changes, including notes of platform-specific behavior
  • Created or updated an example program if it would help users understand this functionality
