57/// The conventional way of calling the `bindgen` function is as follows:
58///
59/// ```rust,no_run
60/// let args = [
61/// "--out",
62/// "src/bindings.rs",
63/// "--filter",
64/// "GetTickCount",
65/// ];
66///
67/// windows_bindgen::bindgen(args).unwrap();
68/// ```
69///
70/// Here is a list of supported arguments.
71///
72/// | Argument | Description |
73/// |----------|-------------|
74/// | `--in` | .winmd files or directories to include. |
75/// | `--out` | File name where the generated bindings will be saved. |
76/// | `--filter` | APIs to include or exclude in the generated bindings. |
77/// | `--rustfmt` | Overrides the default Rust formatting. |
78/// | `--derive` | Extra traits for types to derive. |
79/// | `--flat` | Avoids the default namespace-to-module conversion. |
80/// | `--no-allow` | Avoids generating the default `allow` attribute. |
81/// | `--no-comment` | Avoids generating the code generation comment. |
82/// | `--no-deps` | Avoids dependencies on the various `windows-*` crates. |
83/// | `--sys` | Generates raw or sys-style Rust bindings. |
84/// | `--implement` | Includes implementation traits for WinRT interfaces. |
85/// | `--link` | Overrides the default `windows-link` implementation for system calls. |
86///
87///
88/// # `--out`
89///
90/// Exactly one `--out` argument is required and instructs the `bindgen` function where to write the bindings.
91///
92/// # `--filter`
93///
94/// At least one `--filter` is required and indicates what APIs to include in the generated bindings.
95/// The following will, for example, also include the `Sleep` function:
96///
97/// ```rust
98/// let args = [
99/// "--out",
100/// "src/bindings.rs",
101/// "--filter",
102/// "GetTickCount",
103/// "Sleep",
104/// ];
105/// ```
106///
107/// The `--filter` argument can refer to the function or type name and nothing more. You can also refer
108/// to the namespace that the API metadata uses to group functions and types:
109///
110/// ```rust
111/// let args = [
112/// "--out",
113/// "src/bindings.rs",
114/// "--filter",
115/// "Windows.Foundation.Numerics",
116/// "!Windows.Foundation.Numerics.Matrix3x2",
117/// ];
118/// ```
119///
120/// In this example, all types from the `Windows.Foundation.Numerics` namepace are included with the
121/// exception of `Matrix3x2` which is excluded due to the `!` preamble.
122///
123/// # `--in`
124///
125/// `--in` can indicate a .winmd file or directory containing .winmd files. Alternatively, the special
126/// "default" input can be used to include the particular .winmd files that ship with the `windows-bindgen`
127/// crate. This may used to combine the default metadata with specific .winmd files.
128///
129/// ```rust
130/// let args = [
131/// "--in",
132/// "default",
133/// "Sample.winmd",
134/// "--out",
135/// "src/bindings.rs",
136/// "--filter",
137/// "Sample",
138/// ];
139/// ```
140///
141/// # `--flat`
142///
143/// By default, the bindings include a mapping of namespaces to modules. Consider this example again:
144///
145/// ```rust
146/// let args = [
147/// "--out",
148/// "src/bindings.rs",
149/// "--filter",
150/// "GetTickCount",
151/// "Sleep",
152/// ];
153/// ```
154///
155/// The resulting bindings might look something like this:
156///
157/// ```rust
158/// pub mod Windows {
159/// pub mod Win32 {
160/// pub mod System {
161/// pub mod SystemInformation {
162/// #[inline]
163/// pub unsafe fn GetTickCount() -> u32 {
164/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn GetTickCount() -> u32);
165/// unsafe { GetTickCount() }
166/// }
167/// }
168/// pub mod Threading {
169/// #[inline]
170/// pub unsafe fn Sleep(dwmilliseconds: u32) {
171/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn Sleep(dwmilliseconds : u32));
172/// unsafe { Sleep(dwmilliseconds) }
173/// }
174/// }
175/// }
176/// }
177/// }
178/// ```
179///
180/// That's because the default metadata defines `GetTickCount` in the `Windows.Win32.System.SystemInformation`
181/// namespace while `Sleep` is defined in the `Windows.Win32.System.Threading` namespace. Fortunately, it's
182/// easy to turn that off by using the `--flat` argument:
183///
184/// ```rust
185/// let args = [
186/// "--out",
187/// "src/bindings.rs",
188/// "--flat",
189/// "--filter",
190/// "GetTickCount",
191/// "Sleep",
192/// ];
193/// ```
194///
195/// The resulting bindings now look something like this:
196///
197/// ```rust
198/// #[inline]
199/// pub unsafe fn GetTickCount() -> u32 {
200/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn GetTickCount() -> u32);
201/// unsafe { GetTickCount() }
202/// }
203/// #[inline]
204/// pub unsafe fn Sleep(dwmilliseconds: u32) {
205/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn Sleep(dwmilliseconds : u32));
206/// unsafe { Sleep(dwmilliseconds) }
207/// }
208/// ```
209///
210/// # `--no-allow`
211///
212/// The bindings also include an allow attribute that covers various common warnings inherent in
213/// generated bindings.
214///
215/// ```rust
216/// #![allow(
217/// non_snake_case,
218/// non_upper_case_globals,
219/// non_camel_case_types,
220/// dead_code,
221/// clippy::all
222/// )]
223/// ```
224///
225/// You can prevent this from being generated if you prefer to manage this yourself with the `--no-allow`
226/// argument.
227///
228/// # `--sys`
229///
230/// The `--sys` argument instruct the `bindgen` function to generate raw, sometimes called sys-style Rust
231/// bindings.
232///
233/// ```rust
234/// let args = [
235/// "--out",
236/// "src/bindings.rs",
237/// "--flat",
238/// "--sys",
239/// "--filter",
240/// "GetTickCount",
241/// "Sleep",
242/// ];
243/// ```
244///
245/// The resulting bindings now look something like this:
246///
247/// ```rust
248/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn GetTickCount() -> u32);
249/// windows_link::link!("kernel32.dll" "system" fn Sleep(dwmilliseconds : u32));
250/// ```
251///
252/// You'll notice that the bindings are simpler as there's no wrapper functions and other
253/// conveniences. You just need to add a dependency on the tiny [windows-link](https://crates.io/crates/windows-link) crate and you're all set.
254///
