// This package provides utilities for efficiently performing Win32 IO operations in Go.
|
|
// Currently, this package is provides support for genreal IO and management of
|
|
// - named pipes
|
|
// - files
|
|
// - [Hyper-V sockets]
|
|
//
|
|
// This code is similar to Go's [net] package, and uses IO completion ports to avoid
|
|
// blocking IO on system threads, allowing Go to reuse the thread to schedule other goroutines.
|
|
//
|
|
// This limits support to Windows Vista and newer operating systems.
|
|
//
|
|
// Additionally, this package provides support for:
|
|
// - creating and managing GUIDs
|
|
// - writing to [ETW]
|
|
// - opening and manageing VHDs
|
|
// - parsing [Windows Image files]
|
|
// - auto-generating Win32 API code
