Struct Documentation

struct plugin_meta

A plugin exposes some kind of lookup-table, probably in the form of a data structure with symbols pointing to some function or another. The data structure here is to be defined by the user, hence the void pointer field below.

We only define the meta-data for plugins: each plugin shall expose a symbol “liberate_plugin_meta” which points to a function returning a pointer to a structure as defined below.
