17// //
18// TPluginManager //
19// //
20// This class implements a plugin library manager. It keeps track of //
21// a list of plugin handlers. A plugin handler knows which plugin //
22// library to load to get a specific class that is used to extend the //
23// functionality of a specific base class and how to create an object //
24// of this class. For example, to extend the base class TFile to be //
25// able to read SQLite files one needs to load the plugin library //
26// libRSQLite.so which defines the TSQLiteServer class. This loading //
27// should be triggered when a given URI contains a regular expression //
28// defined by the handler. //
29// Plugin handlers can be defined via macros in a list of plugin //
30// directories. With $ROOTSYS/etc/plugins the default top plugin //
31// directory specified in $ROOTSYS/etc/system.rootrc. Additional //
32// directories can be specified by adding them to the end of the list. //
33// Macros for identical plugin handlers in later directories will //
34// override previous ones (the inverse of normal search path behavior). //
35// The macros must have names like <BaseClass>/PX0_<PluginClass>.C, //
36// e.g.: //
37// TSQLServer/P20_TMySQLServer.C, etc. //
38// to allow easy sorting and grouping. If the BaseClass is in a //
39// namespace the directory must have the name NameSpace@@BaseClass as //
40// : is a reserved pathname character on some operating systems. //
41// Macros not beginning with 'P' and ending with ".C" are ignored. //
42// These macros typically look like: //
43// //
44// void P10_TDCacheFile() //
45// { //
46// gPluginMgr->AddHandler("TFile", "^dcache", "TDCacheFile", //
47// "DCache", "TDCacheFile(const char*,Option_t*)"); //
48// } //
49// //
50// Plugin handlers can also be defined via resources in the .rootrc //
51// file. Although now deprecated this method still works for backward //
52// compatibility, e.g.: //
53// //
54// Plugin.TSQLServer: ^mysql: TMySQLServer MySQL "<constructor>" //
55// +Plugin.TSQLServer: ^pgsql: TPgSQLServer PgSQL "<constructor>" //
56// Plugin.TVirtualFitter: * TFitter Minuit "TFitter(Int_t)" //
57// //
58// Where the + in front of Plugin.TSQLServer says that it extends the //
59// existing definition of TSQLServer, useful when there is more than //
60// one plugin that can extend the same base class. The "<constructor>" //
61// should be the constructor or a static method that generates an //
62// instance of the specified class. Global methods should start with //
63// "::" in their name, like "::CreateFitter()". //
64// Instead of being a shared library a plugin can also be a CINT //
65// script, so instead of libDialog.so one can have Dialog.C. //
66// The * is a placeholder in case there is no need for a URI to //
67// differentiate between different plugins for the same base class. //
68// For the default plugins see $ROOTSYS/etc/system.rootrc. //
69// //
70// Plugin handlers can also be registered at run time, e.g.: //
71// //
72// gPluginMgr->AddHandler("TSQLServer", "^sqlite:", //
73// "TSQLiteServer", "RSQLite", //
74// "TSQLiteServer(const char*,const char*,const char*)"); //
75// //
76// A list of currently defined handlers can be printed using: //
77// //
78// gPluginMgr->Print(); // use option="a" to see ctors //
79// //
80// The use of the plugin library manager removes all textual references //
81// to hard-coded class and library names and the resulting dependencies //
82// in the base classes. The plugin manager is used to extend a.o. //
83// TFile, TSQLServer, TGrid, etc. functionality. //
84// //
