interface to dlls/.so loading
This is something I'd be interested to as well (including writing the code). What specifically do you need from such a library? Something like:
boost::dll plugin("foo"); plugin["bar"].as<void (void)>();
I currently use a very slim wrapper around around dlopen() and the similar Win32 facility. Ofcourse, this requires big-hammer reinterpret casts, but my needs are very simple. Basically, my "plugs" export (extern "C") some kind of entry/registration function that my main app calls on load. The code is here: http://scopira.org/api/classscopira_1_1tool_1_1dll.html And could be a basis for a boost endevour. More C++/demangling/complex stuff could build on the basic symbol loading class... -- // scopira.org | ninjacoder.com //
