//! A memory-safer wrapper around system dynamic library loading primitives.
//!
//! Using this library allows loading [dynamic libraries](struct.Library.html) (also known as
//! shared libraries) as well as use functions and static variables these libraries contain.
//!
//! While the library does expose a cross-platform interface to load a library and find stuff
//! inside it, little is done to paper over the platform differences, especially where library
//! loading is involved. The documentation for each function will attempt to document such
//! differences on the best-effort basis.
//!
//! Less safe, platform specific bindings are also available. See the
//! [`os::platform`](os/index.html) module for details.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! Add a dependency on this library to your `Cargo.toml`:
//!
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies]
//! libloading = "0.5"
//! ```
//!
//! Then inside your project
//!
//! ```no_run
//! extern crate libloading as lib;
//!
//! fn call_dynamic() -> lib::Result<u32> {
//!     let lib = lib::Library::new("/path/to/liblibrary.so")?;
//!     unsafe {
//!         let func: lib::Symbol<unsafe extern fn() -> u32> = lib.get(b"my_func")?;
//!         Ok(func())
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The compiler will ensure that the loaded `function` will not outlive the `Library` it comes
//! from, preventing a common cause of undefined behaviour and memory safety problems.

    /// Find and load a dynamic library.
    ///
    /// The `filename` argument may be any of:
    ///
    /// * A library filename;
    /// * Absolute path to the library;
    /// * Relative (to the current working directory) path to the library.
    ///
    /// ## Thread-safety
    ///
    /// The implementation strives to be as MT-safe as sanely possible, however due to certain
    /// error-handling related resources not always being safe, this library is not MT-safe either.
    ///
    /// * On Windows Vista and earlier error handling falls back to [`SetErrorMode`], which is not
    ///   MT-safe. MT-scenarios involving this function may cause a traditional data race;
    /// * On some UNIX targets `dlerror` might not be MT-safe, resulting in garbage error messages
    ///   in certain MT-scenarios.
    ///
    /// [`SetErrorMode`]: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms680621(v=vs.85).aspx
    ///
    /// Calling this function from multiple threads is not safe if used in conjunction with
    /// path-less filename and library search path is modified (`SetDllDirectory` function on
    /// Windows, `{DY,}LD_LIBRARY_PATH` environment variable on UNIX).
    ///
    /// ## Platform-specific behaviour
    ///
    /// When a plain library filename is supplied, locations where library is searched for is
    /// platform specific and cannot be adjusted in a portable manner.
    ///
    /// ### Windows
    ///
    /// If the `filename` specifies a library filename without path and with extension omitted,
    /// `.dll` extension is implicitly added. This behaviour may be suppressed by appending a
    /// trailing `.` to the `filename`.
    ///
    /// If the library contains thread local variables (MSVC’s `_declspec(thread)`, Rust’s
    /// `#[thread_local]` attributes), loading the library will fail on versions prior to Windows
    /// Vista.
    ///
    /// ## Tips
    ///
    /// Distributing your dynamic libraries under a filename common to all platforms (e.g.
    /// `awesome.module`) allows to avoid code which has to account for platform’s conventional
    /// library filenames.
    ///
    /// Strive to specify absolute or relative path to your library, unless system-wide libraries
    /// are being loaded.  Platform-dependent library search locations combined with various quirks
    /// related to path-less filenames may cause flaky code.
    ///
    /// ## Examples
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// # use ::libloading::Library;
    /// // Any of the following are valid.
    /// let _ = Library::new("/path/to/awesome.module").unwrap();
    /// let _ = Library::new("../awesome.module").unwrap();
    /// let _ = Library::new("libsomelib.so.1").unwrap();
    /// ```
    pub fn new<P: AsRef<OsStr>>(filename: P) -> Result<Library> {
        imp::Library::new(filename).map(From::from)
    }

    /// Get a pointer to function or static variable by symbol name.
    ///
    /// The `symbol` may not contain any null bytes, with an exception of last byte. A null
    /// terminated `symbol` may avoid a string allocation in some cases.
    ///
    /// Symbol is interpreted as-is; no mangling is done. This means that symbols like `x::y` are
    /// most likely invalid.
    ///
    /// ## Unsafety
    ///
    /// Pointer to a value of arbitrary type is returned. Using a value with wrong type is
    /// undefined.
    ///
    /// ## Platform-specific behaviour
    ///
    /// On Linux and Windows, a TLS variable acts just like any regular static variable. OS X uses
    /// some sort of lazy initialization scheme, which makes loading TLS variables this way
    /// impossible. Using a TLS variable loaded this way on OS X is undefined behaviour.
    ///
    /// ## Examples
    ///
    /// Given a loaded library:
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// # use ::libloading::Library;
    /// let lib = Library::new("/path/to/awesome.module").unwrap();
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Loading and using a function looks like this:
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// # use ::libloading::{Library, Symbol};
    /// # let lib = Library::new("/path/to/awesome.module").unwrap();
    /// unsafe {
    ///     let awesome_function: Symbol<unsafe extern fn(f64) -> f64> =
    ///         lib.get(b"awesome_function\0").unwrap();
    ///     awesome_function(0.42);
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// A static variable may also be loaded and inspected:
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// # use ::libloading::{Library, Symbol};
    /// # let lib = Library::new("/path/to/awesome.module").unwrap();
    /// unsafe {
    ///     let awesome_variable: Symbol<*mut f64> = lib.get(b"awesome_variable\0").unwrap();
    ///     **awesome_variable = 42.0;
