};

Typedef xmlModulePtr

xmlModule * xmlModulePtr;

A handle to a dynamically loaded module

xmlModuleClose ()

int	xmlModuleClose			(xmlModulePtr module)

The close operations unload the associated module and free the data associated to the module.

xmlModuleFree ()

int	xmlModuleFree			(xmlModulePtr module)

The free operations free the data associated to the module but does not unload the associated shared library which may still be in use.

xmlModuleOpen ()

xmlModulePtr	xmlModuleOpen		(const char * name, 
					 int options)

Opens a module/shared library given its name or path NOTE: that due to portability issues, behaviour can only be guaranteed with @name using ASCII. We canot guarantee that an UTF-8 string would work, which is why name is a const char * and not a const xmlChar * . TODO: options are not yet implemented.

xmlModuleSymbol ()

int	xmlModuleSymbol			(xmlModulePtr module, 
					 const char * name, 
					 void ** symbol)

Lookup for a symbol address in the given module NOTE: that due to portability issues, behaviour can only be guaranteed with @name using ASCII. We canot guarantee that an UTF-8 string would work, which is why name is a const char * and not a const xmlChar * .
