Detailed Description

template<typename Class, typename Iface>
class Pt::System::BasicPlugin< Class, Iface >

In the plugin library, shared object global BasicPlugins have to be arranged in a null teminated array with C linkage. The PluginManager can be set up to resolve the symbol of this array and use the plugins.

static Pt::BasicPlugin<SomeClass, MyIface> plugin0("some-feature");
static Pt::BasicPlugin<OtherClass, MyIface> plugin1("other-feature");

extern "C" { \
    PT_API Pt::PluginId* PluginList[] = { &plugin0, &plugin1, 0 }; \
