                     Hercules Dynamic Loader

    The dynamic loader is intended to supply a loading and linking
    mechanism, whereby routines, commands, instructions and functions
    can be dynamically added to hercules, without the need to rebuild
    or even restart hercules.

    The loader can be controlled by the following hercules commands:

        ldmod <module list>    - Load modules named in module list
        rmmod <module list>    - Unload modules named in list
        lsmod                  - List all modules and entry points
        lsdep                  - List all dependencies

        The ldmod statement may also appear in the hercules
        configuration file.

        configuration statement:
        modpath <pathname>     - Specifies where modules are loaded from


    The loader has 2 basic functions module load and module unload.

    Module load:

    int hdl_load(char *name, int flags);

        Where name is the module name, this name may include the
        path.  If no path is given then the module is loaded from
        the default library search order.  Note that this is
        different from the standard search order.

        flags may be one of the following:

         HDL_LOAD_DEFAULT or 0  -  Default load
         HDL_LOAD_MAIN          -  Reserved for hercules use
         HDL_LOAD_NOUNLOAD      -  Module cannot be unloaded
         HDL_LOAD_FORCE         -  Override dependency check
         HDL_LOAD_NOMSG         -  Do not issue any error messages

        This function returns a zero value when the load is successful.


    Module unload:

    int hdl_dele(char *name);

        Where name is the name of the module that is to be unloaded.

        This function returns a zero value when the unload is successful.


    Resolving Symbols:

    void * HDL_FINDSYM(char *symbolname);

        This function will return the entry point of symbolname or
        zero when the symbol cannot be resolved.

    void * HDL_FINDNXT(current_entry point);

        This function will return the previous entry point.
        That is, the entry point which was current before the entry point
        as identified by current_entry point was registered.

        This function is intended to allow a module to call the original
        routine.  An example of this is given in the panel_command entry
        as listed below.


    There are some special considerations for systems that do not support
    the concept of back-linking.  Back-linking is the operating system
    support of dynamically resolving unresolved external references in
    a dynamic module, with the main module, or other loaded modules.
    Cygwin does not support back-linking and Cygwin specials are listed
    in this example with #if defined(WIN32).


    Some additional notes:

    Unload will remove all references to a specific module, but currently
    it will not actually remove the loaded module from memory.  This is
    because there is no safe way (yet) to synchronize unloading of code
    and, besides, it may still be in use.  This should however pose no
    practical limitations.

    When a module lists a new dependency, that dependency will be regis-
    tered.  Unloading the module does not remove the dependency, this is
    to be consistent with the previous note about unloading.

/*
    The dependency section is - for all intents and purposes - called
    before the module is loaded.  Its function is to check that there
    are no incompatibilities between this module and the version of
    hercules that we are running.  Dependencies are identified by
    name, this name is given on the HDL_DEPENDENCY statement.

    Each dependency then has a version code, and a size code, where
    the version code is a character string, and the size code an
    integer value.  If the version or size codes do not match with
    those in the hercules main module, the module cannot be loaded.
    The version is usually a character string that identifies the
    version of the component, and the size is to be the size of
    the component in the case of structures or unions.

    Version and size should be coded as following:

      #define HDL_VERS_SOMETHING  "1.0"
      #define HDL_SIZE_SOMETHING  sizeof(SOMETHING)

    where SOMETHING can be a structure or other component.

    the associated dependency statement:

      HDL_DEPENDENCY(SOMETHING);

    When a dependency is given that has not yet been registered,
    it will be registered, such that it can be checked in subsequent
    module loads.

    The dependency section is mandatory.

  IMPORTANT HERCULES INTERNALS BUILD INFORMATION RELATING TO HDL

           (our 'DLL_EXPORT' and 'DLL_IMPORT' design)


Here's the poop. Any function that needs to be exported/imported
to another MODULE (i.e. 'module' is defined as .DLL or .SO, etc),
*MUST* have its functon declaration defined in the "hexterns.h"
header and *ONLY* in the "hexterns.h" header!

That is to say, you must NOT declare the function in a separate
header file! (That might be the way you normally do things for a
normal project, but that is NOT the way you do it with Hercules)


                       --------------
                       +   STEP 1   +
                       --------------

You need to ensure your .c SOURCE member always begins with the
following very specific header file #include sequence:


    /*  XXXXXX.C    (C) Copyright XXXXXXXXXXX & Others, yyyy-2011        */
    /*              Module description goes here...                      */
    /*                                                                   */

    #include "hstdinc.h"

    DLL_EXPORT  int myfunction1 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg)
    {
      ... function body ...
    }

    
    DLL_EXPORT  int myfunction2 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg)
    {
      ... function body ...
    }

    
    DLL_EXPORT  int myfunction3 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg)
    {
      ... function body ...
    }


where 'XXXXX' is the name of your source member, 'ZZZZZ' is the name
of the MODULE (.dll or .so) your code will be a part of, and 'DLL_EXPORT'
is added to the beginning of each function that needs to be exported.

Refer to the "OBJ_CODE.msvc" and/or "makefile.am" members to see how
all of hercules code is divided into separate loadable modules (DLLs)
so you know which module (DLL) your function should be a part of.


                       --------------
                       +   STEP 2   +
                       --------------

Add a new entry at the BEGINNING of "hexterns.h" as follows:


    #ifndef _XXXXXXX_C_
    #ifndef _ZZZZZZZ_DLL_
    #define MMMM_DLL_IMPORT  DLL_IMPORT
    #else
    #define MMMM_DLL_IMPORT  extern
    #endif
    #else
    #define MMMM_DLL_IMPORT  DLL_EXPORT
    #endif


where 'MMMM' is a unique 2-4 character prefix of your own choosing
that identifies your source member export (e.g. HUTL_DLL_IMPORT).


                       --------------
                       +   STEP 3   +
                       --------------

Add your exported function declarations to END of "hexterns.h":


    /* Functions in module xxxxxxx.c */
    MMMM_DLL_IMPORT int myfunction1 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg);
    MMMM_DLL_IMPORT int myfunction2 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg);
    MMMM_DLL_IMPORT int myfunction3 (DEVBLK*, int myarg, int otherarg);
    ...etc...


                       --------------
                       +   STEP 4   +
                       --------------

Update BOTH the "OBJ_CODE.msvc" and "makefile.am" members with your
new source member. Be sure to update BOTH files, e.g.:


    ---(makefile.am)---


      libhercu_la_SOURCES = version.c    \
                            hscutl.c     \

                            hostinfo.c   \

                            $(FTHREADS)  \
                            $(LTDL)


    ---(OBJ_CODE.msvc)---


        hutil_OBJ = \
            $(O)codepage.obj \
            $(O)fthreads.obj \
            $(O)getopt.obj   \

            $(O)hsocket.obj  \
            $(O)w32util.obj  \
            $(O)xxxxxxxx.obj


That's it. That's all you should have to do.

Again, you MAY use a separate #include header file for your new source
member with NON-EXPORTED functions declared within it but any function
you need to export to another module must NOT be declared there. The
function must instead be declared in "hexterns.h" as described above.
