Methods

staticLoad

static LoadedPlugin Load(const String &pluginName, void *passThrough = nullptr)

Loads a plugin by name.

In dynamic library mode: loads the dynamic library and calls its LoadPlugin() entry point. In monolithic mode: looks up the static registry and calls the registration function.

Falls through to dynamic loading for plugins not in the static registry.

pluginName: Name of the plugin to load.
passThrough: Optional parameter that will be passed to the LoadPlugin function. Looks up LoadPlugin function with a single void* parameter if provided, otherwise looks up LoadPlugin function with no parameters.

Returns: LoadedPlugin with the result and callbacks for lifecycle management.

staticUnload

static void Unload(LoadedPlugin &plugin)

Unloads a previously loaded plugin.

Calls the unload function if available, then unloads the dynamic library in dynamic library mode.

staticGetName

static const char *GetName(const LoadedPlugin &plugin)

Gets the plugin name.
