struct RygelPluginLoader

struct RygelPluginLoader;

This class is responsible for plugin loading.

It probes for shared library files in a specific directory, tries to find a module_init() function with this signature: void module_init (RygelPluginLoader* loader);

It then calls that function, passing a pointer to itself. The loaded module can then add plugins to Rygel by calling the rygel_plugin_loader_add_plugin() function.

NOTE: The module SHOULD make sure that the plugin has not been disabled by the user, by using the rygel_plugin_loader_plugin_disabled() function before creating the plugin instance, and before creating any resources related to that instance.
