    I am trying my hand at writing bindings to screen_capture_lite, my current attempt at this is here where I am statically linking to it. When running my window_count example, I get lots of "unresolved external symbol" errors for some winapi stuff. However, it works as intended if I manually tell my build.rs to link to each individual dependency that it needs. I was under the impression that statically linking to a library with dynamic dependencies wouldn't break them or anything like is apparently happening here. My question is how I can prevent it from breaking these dependencies, or how can I export the list of dependencies to use in build.rs?

    As for crates, I haven't used https://github.com/nashaofu/screenshots-rs but it seems like it may do what you want? I found it by searching "rust wayland screenshot" on Google. It is apparently not the same library as the 'screenshots-rs' crate on crates.io, though
  • Is it allowed to hog up crate names?
