A memory-safer wrapper around system dynamic library loading primitives. The most important safety
guarantee by this library is prevention of dangling-Symbol
s that may occur after a Library
is
unloaded.
Using this library allows loading dynamic libraries (also known as shared libraries) as well as use functions and static variables these libraries contain.
libloading is distributed under ISC (MIT-like) license.
Note, that this library is not a drop-in replacement for the deprecated dynamic_lib
. Many
dubious APIs (notably, library search path modification) were prunned and string arguments
take types that match conventions and system APIs better.
