18 * \brief C API: ICU Plugin API |
|
19 * |
|
20 * <h2>C API: ICU Plugin API</h2> |
|
21 * |
|
22 * <p>C API allowing run-time loadable modules that extend or modify ICU functionality.</p> |
|
23 * |
|
24 * <h3>Loading and Configuration</h3> |
|
25 * |
|
26 * <p>At ICU startup time, the environment variable "ICU_PLUGINS" will be |
|
27 * queried for a directory name. If it is not set, the preprocessor symbol |
|
28 * "DEFAULT_ICU_PLUGINS" will be checked for a default value.</p> |
|
29 * |
|
30 * <p>Within the above-named directory, the file "icuplugins##.txt" will be |
|
31 * opened, if present, where ## is the major+minor number of the currently |
|
32 * running ICU (such as, 44 for ICU 4.4, thus icuplugins44.txt)</p> |
|
33 * |
|
34 * <p>The configuration file has this format:</p> |
|
35 * |
|
36 * <ul> |
|
37 * <li>Hash (#) begins a comment line</li> |
|
38 * |
|
39 * <li>Non-comment lines have two or three components: |
|
40 * LIBRARYNAME ENTRYPOINT [ CONFIGURATION .. ]</li> |
|
41 * |
|
42 * <li>Tabs or spaces separate the three items.</li> |
|
43 * |
|
44 * <li>LIBRARYNAME is the name of a shared library, either a short name if |
|
45 * it is on the loader path, or a full pathname.</li> |
|
46 * |
|
47 * <li>ENTRYPOINT is the short (undecorated) symbol name of the plugin's |
|
48 * entrypoint, as above.</li> |
|
49 * |
|
50 * <li>CONFIGURATION is the entire rest of the line . It's passed as-is to |
|
51 * the plugin.</li> |
|
52 * </ul> |
|
53 * |
|
54 * <p>An example configuration file is, in its entirety:</p> |
|
55 * |
|
56 * \code |
|
57 * # this is icuplugins44.txt |
|
58 * testplug.dll myPlugin hello=world |
|
59 * \endcode |
|
60 * <p>Plugins are categorized as "high" or "low" level. Low level are those |
|
61 * which must be run BEFORE high level plugins, and before any operations |
|
62 * which cause ICU to be 'initialized'. If a plugin is low level but |
|
63 * causes ICU to allocate memory or become initialized, that plugin is said |
|
64 * to cause a 'level change'. </p> |
|
65 * |
|
66 * <p>At load time, ICU first queries all plugins to determine their level, |
|
67 * then loads all 'low' plugins first, and then loads all 'high' plugins. |
|
68 * Plugins are otherwise loaded in the order listed in the configuration file.</p> |
|
69 * |
|
70 * <h3>Implementing a Plugin</h3> |
|
71 * \code |
|
72 * U_CAPI UPlugTokenReturn U_EXPORT2 |
|
73 * myPlugin (UPlugData *plug, UPlugReason reason, UErrorCode *status) { |
|
74 * if(reason==UPLUG_REASON_QUERY) { |
|
75 * uplug_setPlugName(plug, "Simple Plugin"); |
|
76 * uplug_setPlugLevel(plug, UPLUG_LEVEL_HIGH); |
|
77 * } else if(reason==UPLUG_REASON_LOAD) { |
|
78 * ... Set up some ICU things here.... |
|
79 * } else if(reason==UPLUG_REASON_UNLOAD) { |
|
80 * ... unload, clean up ... |
|
81 * } |
|
82 * return UPLUG_TOKEN; |
|
83 * } |
|
84 * \endcode |
|
85 * |
|
86 * <p>The UPlugData* is an opaque pointer to the plugin-specific data, and is |
|
87 * used in all other API calls.</p> |
|
88 * |
|
89 * <p>The API contract is:</p> |
|
90 * <ol><li>The plugin MUST always return UPLUG_TOKEN as a return value- to |
|
91 * indicate that it is a valid plugin.</li> |
|
92 * |
|
93 * <li>When the 'reason' parameter is set to UPLUG_REASON_QUERY, the |
|
94 * plugin MUST call uplug_setPlugLevel() to indicate whether it is a high |
|
95 * level or low level plugin.</li> |
|
96 * |
|
97 * <li>When the 'reason' parameter is UPLUG_REASON_QUERY, the plugin |
|
98 * SHOULD call uplug_setPlugName to indicate a human readable plugin name.</li></ol> |
