3.0.0

August 30, 2022

This release includes an overhaul of the COM and WinRT API generation, as described below. Apps and packages that call traditional Win32 APIs should not require changes, but apps that use COM or the highly-experimental WinRT APIs should expect to make changes.
[BREAKING CHANGE] WinRT APIs have been moved to a separate library. This provides isolation for apps that only use traditional APIs (Win32/COM) from the more experimental WinRT APIs. To use WinRT from your code, change your import statement to import 'package:win32/winrt.dart';. The WinRT library also exports all Win32 APIs, so you don't have to import both libraries.
[BREAKING CHANGE] COM and Windows Runtime methods and properties are now camelCased, not TitleCased. This is inconvenient, but it avoids a whole class of name clashes and aligns COM and WinRT APIs more closely with Dart idioms. As the projections get smarter with more helpers, we think this is the right call for the future and worth a one-time tax to fix.
[BREAKING CHANGE] You can now cast to a new COM interface without needing the IID for the target interface. Instead of:

  final modalWindow = IModalWindow(fileDialog.toInterface(IID_IModalWindow));

write:

  final modalWindow = IModalWindow.from(fileDialog);

[BREAKING CHANGE] WinRT classes now support projection of Lists and Strings directly.
[BREAKING CHANGE] The WinRT fromPointer method is now fromRawPointer.
GUIDFromString now supports an optional custom allocator parameter.
Added various APIs from iphlpapi.dll for tracking and renewing IP addresses.
Added DisableThreadLibraryCalls, FindStringOrdinal, GetConsoleCP, GetConsoleOutputCP, GetModuleHandleExW, GetNumberOfConsoleInputEvents, GetVolumeInformation, GetVolumeInformationByHandle, PeekConsoleInput, ReadConsoleInputW, SetErrorMode, SetThreadErrorMode, SizeofResource APIs from kernel32.dll
Added GetClassFile API from ole32.dll
