This function is unused, and the current implementation contains a few footguns: - The current wrapper treats all possible errors as unexpected, even likely ones like BUFFER_OVERFLOW (which is returned if the size of the out_buffer is too small to contain all the variable-length members of the requested info, which the user may not actually care about) - Each caller may need to handle errors differently, different errors might be possible depending on the FILE_INFORMATION_CLASS, etc, and making a wrapper that handles all of those different use-cases nicely seems like it'd be more trouble than it's worth (FILE_INFORMATION_CLASS has 76 different possible values) If a wrapper for NtQueryInformationFile is wanted, then it should probably have wrapper functions per-use-case, like how QueryObjectName wraps NtQueryObject for the `ObjectNameInformation` class
A general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal, and reusable software.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
