Description
Unless I'm mistaken, there is currently no suitable valgrind-binary available for Windows. Therefore I want to ask, whether this project should simply drop support for Windows at this point. Windows-binaries could either be entirely removed (and the code could even be un-compile-able on Windows) or the tool would simply forward to cargo <cmd> without any interventions (but this could trick somebody in thinking, that the code is fine, whereas in reality there are no checks done at all).
There was a project, that aims to make Valgrind working on Windows, but the last code change was done over 10 years ago. The project status is told to be pre-alpha and the last update to an open issue is from 2015. It is unclear to me, if it supports the XML-output required for cargo-valgrind, although the Windows port shares some of the codebase, hence it might be possible, although the CLI is nowhere documented. Therefore I don't think, that this is used on windows at the moment.
I'd like to hear if anyone actually uses this tool on Windows. If so, please comment under this issue.
