Member Function Documentation

static handle claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::auto_open

(

const std::string &

name

)

[inline, static]

Open the current program.

Parameters:

name

The name of the current program.

Returns:

The handle on the loaded library.

Definition at line 69 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      return LoadLibrary( name.c_str() );
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::auto_open()

static void claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::close

(

handle

h

)

[inline, static]

Close a library.

Parameters:

h

The handle of the library to close.

Definition at line 79 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      FreeLibrary(h);
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::close()

template<class T >

static T claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::get_symbol	(	handle	h,
		const std::string &	name
	)			[inline, static]

Get a symbol from a library.

Parameters:

	h	Handle of the library.
	name	The name of the symbol to load.

Definition at line 91 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      /* HACK : ISO standard doesn't allow to cast from a pointer to an object
         to a pointer to a function. */
      T result;
      *(FARPROC*)(&result) = GetProcAddress( h, name.c_str() );

      return result;
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::get_symbol()

static bool claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::have_symbol	(	handle	h,
		const std::string &	name
	)			[inline, static]

Tell if a symbol is in the library.

Parameters:

	h	Handle of the library.
	name	The name of the symbol to find.

Definition at line 107 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      return GetProcAddress( h, name.c_str() ) != NULL;
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::have_symbol()

static handle claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::open

(

const std::string &

name

)

[inline, static]

Open a library.

Parameters:

name

The name of the library to open.

Returns:

The handle on the loaded library.

Definition at line 58 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      return LoadLibrary( name.c_str() );
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::open()

static bool claw::dynamic_library_traits_win32::valid_handle

(

handle

h

)

[inline, static]

Tell if an handle is a valid library handle.

Parameters:

h

The handle to test.

Definition at line 117 of file dynamic_library_traits_win32.hpp.

    {
      return h != NULL;
    } // dynamic_library_traits_win32::valid_handle()
