dlib 0.5.2

//! dlib is a small crate providing macros to make easy the use of external system libraries that
//! can or cannot be optionally loaded at runtime, depending on whether a certain feature is enabled.
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! dlib defines the `external_library!` macro, which can be invoked in this way:
//!
//! ```rust
//! external_library!(feature="dlopen-foo", Foo, "foo",
//!     statics:
//!         me: c_int,
//!         you: c_float,
//!     functions:
//!         fn foo() -> c_int,
//!         fn bar(c_int, c_float) -> (),
//!         fn baz(*const c_int) -> c_int,
//!     varargs:
//!         fn blah(c_int, c_int ...) -> *const c_void,
//!         fn bleh(c_int ...) -> (),
//! );
//! ```
//!
//! As you can see, it is required to separate static values from functions and from function
//! having variadic arguments. Each of these 3 categories is optional, but the ones used must appear
//! in this order. Return types of the functions must all be explicit (hence `-> ()` for void functions).
//!
//! If the feature named by the `feature` argument (in this example, `dlopen-foo`) is absent on your crate,
//! this macro will expand to an extern block defining each of the items, using the third argument
//! of the macro as a link name:
//!
//! ```rust
//! #[link(name = "foo")]
//! extern "C" {
//!     pub static me: c_int;
//!     pub static you: c_float;
//!     pub fn foo() -> c_int;
//!     pub fn bar(_: c_int, _: c_float) -> ();
//!     pub fn baz(_: *const c_int) -> c_int;
//!     pub fn blah(_: c_int, _: c_int, ...) -> *const c_void;
//!     pub fn bleh(_: c_int, ...) -> ();
//! }
//!
//! ```
//!
//! If the feature named by the `feature` argument is present on your crate, it will expand to a
//! `struct` named by the second argument of the macro, with one field for each of the symbols defined;
//! and a method `open`, which tries to load the library from the name or path given as an argument.
//!
//! ```rust
//! pub struct Foo {
//!     pub me: &'static c_int,
//!     pub you: &'static c_float,
//!     pub foo: unsafe extern "C" fn() -> c_int,
//!     pub bar: unsafe extern "C" fn(c_int, c_float) -> (),
//!     pub baz: unsafe extern "C" fn(*const c_int) -> c_int,
//!     pub blah: unsafe extern "C" fn(c_int, c_int, ...) -> *const c_void,
//!     pub bleh: unsafe extern "C" fn(c_int, ...) -> (),
//! }
//!
//!
//! impl Foo {
//!     pub unsafe fn open(name: &str) -> Result<Foo, DlError> { /* ... */ }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! This method returns `Ok(..)` if the loading was successful. It contains an instance of the defined struct
//! with all of its fields pointing to the appropriate symbol.
//!
//! If the library specified by `name` could not be openened, it returns `Err(DlError::CantOpen(e))`, with
//! `e` the error reported by `libloading` (see [LibLoadingError]);
//!
//! It will also fail on the first missing symbol, with `Err(DlError::MissingSymbol(symb))` where `symb`
//! is a `&str` containing the missing symbol name.
//!
//! Note that this method is unsafe, as loading (and unloading on drop) an external C library can run arbitrary
//! code. As such, you need to ensure that the specific library you want to load is safe to load in the context
//! you want to load it.
//!
//! ## Remaining generic in your crate
//!
//! If you want your crate to remain generic over dlopen vs. linking, simply add a feature to your `Cargo.toml`:
//!
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies]
//! dlib = "0.5"
//!
//! [features]
//! dlopen-foo = []
//! ```
//!
//! Then give the name of that feature as the `feature` argument to dlib's macros:
//!
//! ```rust
//! external_library!(feature="dlopen-foo", Foo, "foo",
//!     functions:
//!         fn foo() -> c_int,
//! );
//! ```
//!
//! `dlib` provides helper macros to dispatch the access to foreign symbols:
//!
//! ```rust
//! ffi_dispatch!(feature="dlopen-foo", Foo, function, arg1, arg2);
//! ffi_dispatch_static!(feature="dlopen-foo", Foo, my_static_var);
//! ```
//!
//! These will expand to the appropriate value or function call depending on the presence or absence of the
//! `dlopen-foo` feature on your crate.
//!
//! You must still ensure that the functions/statics or the wrapper struct `Foo` are in scope. For example,
//! you could use the [`lazy_static`](https://crates.io/crates/lazy_static) crate to do the initialization,
//! and store the wrapper struct in a static variable that you import wherever needed:
//!
//! ```rust
//! #[cfg(feature = "dlopen-foo")]
//! lazy_static::lazy_static! {
//!     pub static ref FOO_STATIC: Foo =
//!         Foo::open("libfoo.so").ok().expect("could not find libfoo");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Then, it can become as simple as putting this on top of all modules using the FFI:
//!
//! ```rust
//! #[cfg(feature = "dlopen-foo")]
//! use ffi::FOO_STATIC;
//! #[cfg(not(feature = "dlopen-foo"))]
//! use ffi::*;
//! ```
