class OSGDB_EXPORT osgDB::DynamicLibrary

DynamicLibrary - encapsulates the loading and unloading of dynamic libraries, typically used for loading ReaderWriter plug-ins

Inheritance:

Public Methods

static DynamicLibrary* loadLibrary(const std::string& libraryName)

returns a pointer to a DynamicLibrary object on successfully opening of library returns NULL on failure

const std::string& getName() const

return name of library stripped of path

const std::string& getFullName() const

return name of library including full path to it

HANDLE getHandle() const

return handle to dso/dll dynamic library itself

PROC_ADDRESS getProcAddress(const std::string& procName)

return address of function located in library

Public Members

typedef void* HANDLE

typedef void* PROC_ADDRESS

Protected Fields

HANDLE _handle

std::string _name

std::string _fullName

Protected Methods

static HANDLE getLibraryHandle( const std::string& libraryName)

get handle to library file

DynamicLibrary()

disallow default constructor

DynamicLibrary(const DynamicLibrary&)

disallow copy constructor

DynamicLibrary& operator == (const DynamicLibrary&)

disallow copy operator

DynamicLibrary(const std::string& name, HANDLE handle)

Disallow public construction so that users have to go through loadLibrary() above which returns NULL on failure, a valid DynamicLibrary object on success
