Is purego.Dlsym supported on Windows?

[texadactyl]

I get compilation errors on Windows: undefined purego.Dlsym.

Said before in a different discussion: Please update https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/ebitengine/purego to indicate which functions are supported on Windows and which are supported on POSIX systems. Thank you.

The examples/libc shows how to use purego on Windows.

The comments were updated but a release hasn't been made yet so it doesn’t show up in go doc. 2d5afc8

You can switch GOOS for documents

https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/ebitengine/purego?GOOS=linux
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/ebitengine/purego?GOOS=windows

Thank you. That helped me considerably.

Under "Supported Platforms" or under "Documentation", you should state explicitly when there are functions that are applicable by the user's resident O/S. It's too easy to miss "Rendered for".

However, I still think that all API documentation (not just yours) should indicate under each function if there are any O/S restrictions. Excellent example: https://pkg.go.dev/os clearly specifies under each function restrictions by O/S to the function or the data in use or produced by the function.

As @TotallyGamerJet mentioned, we have commited 2d5afc8 to add more explanations about Windows for Dl* functions. Please stay tuned for the next stable release. Thanks!
