I'm building a crate to show a progress indicator in the icon of the taskbar of the app using it, I already began the implementation for Linux, but I want to support Windows also, for that I need to access ITaskBarList3, I don't knew anything about COM interfaces before find this. The point is that I'm pretty confused about what to do. They said I would implement the functions, but I want to call them, and this thing com-rs, I'm not sure if I would redefine the interface that is already defined in winapi.
You might want to use https://github.com/microsoft/windows-rs, which includes both com, winrt, and maintained.
I solve it, turned out that I needed to initialize the pointers table using the CoCreateInstance method, I find this example useful, and it was what I base on to complete my crate and publish it. Thanks to everyone that helped.
