Description
Feature gate: #![feature(windows_process_extensions_startupinfo)]
This is a tracking issue for https://github.com/rust-lang/libs-team/issues/562, adding the ability to specify some STARTUPINFO fields in the Command API on Windows
Public API
The Command API should expose some methods to configure the startupinfo_flags individually. After a discussion, we propose to expose the following methods:
// Controls STARTF_RUNFULLSCREEN
fn startupinfo_fullscreen(&mut self, enabled: bool)
// Controls STARTF_UNTRUSTEDSOURCE
fn startupinfo_untrusted_source(&mut self, enabled: bool)
// Controls STARTF_FORCEONFEEDBACK and STARTF_FORCEOFFFEEDBACK
fn startupinfo_force_feedback(&mut self, enabled: Option<bool>)
