dynload(3)		 BSD Library Functions Manual		    dynload(3)

NAME
     dynload — encapsulates dynamic loading mechanisms and gives access to
     functions in foreign dynamic libraries and code modules.

SYNOPSIS
     #include <dynload.h>

     DLLib *
     dlLoadLibrary(const char * libpath);

     void
     dlFreeLibrary(DLLib * pLib);

     void *
     dlFindSymbol(DLLib pLibode, const char * pSymbolName);

DESCRIPTION
     The dynload library provides an interface to load foreign dynamic
     libraries and access to their symbols.

     dlLoadLibrary() loads a dynamic library at libpath and returns a handle
     to it for use in dlFreeLibrary() and dlFindSymbol() calls.

     dlFreeLibrary() frees the loaded library with handle pLib.

     dlFindSymbol() returns a pointer to a symbol with name pSymbolName in the
     library with handle pLib, or returns a null pointer if the symbol cannot
     be found.

SEE ALSO
     dyncall(3), dyncallback(3) and the dyncall manual (available in PDF for‐
     mat) for a way more detailed documentation of this library.
