@copilot use cargo_config2 to load existing rustflags and parse it using rustflags
crate instead of find it in command.get_envs
Updated to use cargo_config2 to load existing rustflags and parse them using the rustflags crate instead of manually checking command environment variables. This provides more robust flag handling by properly loading cargo configuration. (commit 2ad26c4) |

The CI failure was due to code formatting issues. I've fixed the formatting violations in the code (improper line breaks and trailing whitespace) and all tests now pass. The issue is resolved in commit a7de18e. |

Fixes #343
This PR implements a
zig dlltool
wrapper to resolve compilation failures when targeting Windows GNU with crates that useraw-dylib
functionality (like thewindows
crate v0.4.40+).Problem
Recent versions of the
windows
crate started usingraw-dylib
which requiresdlltool
to be available in the system PATH. Users targetingx86_64-pc-windows-gnu
would encounter errors like:Previously, users had to manually install mingw-w64 tools as a workaround.
Solution
This PR adds comprehensive support for
zig dlltool
by:Dlltool
variant in theZig
enum that routes tozig dlltool
dlltool
and target-specific names:x86_64-w64-mingw32-dlltool
i686-w64-mingw32-dlltool
aarch64-w64-mingw32-dlltool
Usage
No changes required for end users. When targeting Windows GNU, dlltool will now be automatically available:
Projects using the
windows
crate or other crates withraw-dylib
dependencies will now compile successfully without requiring manual mingw-w64 installation.Testing
This implementation follows the established patterns used for other zig tool wrappers (
ar
,ranlib
, etc.) and maintains full backward compatibility.💬 Share your feedback on Copilot coding agent for the chance to win a $200 gift card! Click here to start the survey.
