Function Documentation

SVN_DEPRECATED void svn_dso_initialize (  void   )

Initialize the DSO loading routines. Note: This should be called prior to the creation of any pool that is passed to a function that comes from a DSO, otherwise you risk having the DSO unloaded before all pool cleanup callbacks that live in the DSO have been executed. If it is not called prior to svn_dso_load being used for the first time there will be a best effort attempt made to initialize the subsystem, but it will not be entirely thread safe and it risks running into the previously mentioned problems with DSO unloading and pool cleanup callbacks. Calls svn_dso_initialize2(void) upon error aborts. Deprecated: Provided for backwards compatibility with the 1.5 API. Since: New in 1.4.

svn_error_t* svn_dso_initialize2 (  void   )

Initialize the DSO loading routines. Note: This should be called prior to the creation of any pool that is passed to a function that comes from a DSO, otherwise you risk having the DSO unloaded before all pool cleanup callbacks that live in the DSO have been executed. If it is not called prior to svn_dso_load being used for the first time there will be a best effort attempt made to initialize the subsystem, but it will not be entirely thread safe and it risks running into the previously mentioned problems with DSO unloading and pool cleanup callbacks. Returns svn_error_t object with corresponding apr_err returned by underlying calls. In case of no error returns SVN_NO_ERROR. Since: New in 1.6.

svn_error_t* svn_dso_load (  apr_dso_handle_t **  dso, const char *  libname )

Attempt to load libname, returning it in dso. If libname cannot be loaded set dso to NULL and return SVN_NO_ERROR. Note: Due to pool lifetime issues DSOs are all loaded into a global pool, so you must be certain that there is a bounded number of them that will ever be loaded by the system, otherwise you will leak memory. Since: New in 1.4.
