A Dart library for working with Windows Metadata (winmd) formats.

2.4.6

• Update to Windows.Win32.winmd v41.0.5.54252

2.4.5

• Update error messages

2.4.4

• Update to Windows.Win32.winmd v38.0.1.26489

2.4.3

• Update to Windows.Win32.winmd v37.0.33.41815

2.4.0

• Update to Windows.Win32.winmd v37.0.19.10366.
• Notable metadata changes:
  • Win32 modules now contain extensions (e.g. gdi32 -> gdi32.dll)
  • Win32 preservesig values updated
  • More strong value types (e.g. COLORREF is no longer a generic Uint32)

2.3.0

• Potential breaking change: Method and TypeIdentifier offer more friendly .toString() values.

2.2.2

• Adjust simple array types (thanks @halildurmus).

2.2.1

• Add support for reference types and fix simple array types.

2.2.0

• Potential breaking change: semantics of TypeDef.isClass have changed. .isClass is now only true for real classes (not delegates, structs, or other objects that may be represented in the metadata as classes but are actually different types). For old-style behavior, use .representsAsClass instead.

1.0.20

• Export architecture mixin.
• Add more tests.

1.0.19

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.
• Add code coverage generation

1.0.18

• Much faster for deeply nested types.
• Add support for "fake" getters and setters in Win32 metadata.
• More tolerant support of nested types.
• Built-in support for platform architecture without attribute queries.
• More tests.

1.0.16

• Better integrate support for nested types.

1.0.15

• Add platform architecture support.

1.0.14

• Add support for nested types.

1.0.13

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.12

• Fix accidental break.

1.0.11

• [Broken build] Please upgrade to 1.0.12.
• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.10

• Minor tweaks to property detection
• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.9

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.8

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.7

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.6

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.5

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.4

• Treat HSTRING as an int, rather than as a Pointer<IntPtr>, for consistency with other handle types.

1.0.3

• Fix bug with parsing generic type definitions (thanks, @sunbreak)
• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.2

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

1.0.1

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.
• Switch to linter package

1.0.0

• Update to Dart 2.13, which includes new FFI support for packed structs, type aliases and arrays.
• Overhaul the APIs to include much better support for attributes. WinMD can now successfully access all the Win32 APIs (enums, delegates, functions, interfaces and structs) and all documented metadata, as demonstrated with the object_tests folder.
• Move all projection code to win32. This package now is focused exclusively on extracting metadata from WinMD files, rather than attempting to build Dart projections from it. That code is a better fit for win32, since it will evolve with the generated output.
• Add support for events, properties, and delegates.
• Expose scope in TokenObject.
• Clearer abstraction between underlying COM calls and external API.
• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

0.4.12

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.
• Support nested classes

0.4.10

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

0.4.9

• Update to latest win32metadata .winmd file.

0.4.8

0.4.7

• Minor fixes

0.4.6

• Add struct generation

0.4.5

• Bundle the latest win32metadata .winmd file with the package, and expose it via the MetadataStore.getWin32Scope() method. This will ensure that this library's projection APIs stay in sync with any changes to the metadata file itself. You can still supply your own copy of Windows.Win32.winmd file and load with the MetadataStore.getScopeForFile() call.
• Project all enums as Uint32, for consistency.
• Add more tests to ensure a couple of regressions never creep in again.
