Tor Lillqvist<p>The clipboard API in <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Win32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Win32</span></a> is surprisingly ancient. I mean this GlobalAlloc(), GlobalLock() thing to get something where to copy data before you can call SetClipboardData() on smells of 16-bit times, doesn't it?</p><p>OTOH, GlobalAlloc(), GlobalLock(), and GlobalUnlock() are just three lines of code, the API is still relatively straightforward. And I guess it is supposed to be quite rare that one would want or need to use the Win32 API nowadays.</p>

Matt Campbell<p>Any <a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/Rust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Rust</span></a> programmers working on <a href="https://toot.cafe/tags/Win32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Win32</span></a> know of a reusable thing for waking up the Ui thread from a non-UI thread, and possibly sending a value back? Seems like that could be a tiny, reusable crate. Yes, yes, people will grouse about the proliferation of small dependencies, but that approach has its advantages, and Rust makes it pretty natural, so I'm inclined to not fight it.</p>
