libOBS Window Helper

This is just a helper crate for the (to be released) libobs-sources crate. It provides a way to get a list of all windows that OBS can capture (eiter window_capture or game_capture). If you want to use this crate nevertheless, here's an example.

Example

use libobs_window_helper::{get_all_windows, WindowSearchMode};

fn main() {
    let res = get_all_windows(WindowSearchMode::ExcludeMinimized, false).unwrap();
        for i in res {
            /// This struct contains all crucial information about the window like title, class name, obs_id etc.
            println!("{:?}", i);
        }
}

lib.rs:

OBS Window Helper

This crate provides necessary information about windows that could be used so they can be captured with the window_capture or game_capture source in OBS.
The function you probably want to use is get_all_windows which returns a list of WindowInfo structs.
