====================
A plugin is loaded from a dynamic library at runtime by the compiler. To
-register a plugin in a library, use ``FrontendPluginRegistry::Add<>``.
-On Windows, you also need to export your plugin registry using
-``LLVM_EXPORT_REGISTRY``. Here is an example:
+register a plugin in a library, use ``FrontendPluginRegistry::Add<>``:
.. code-block:: c++
static FrontendPluginRegistry::Add<MyPlugin> X("my-plugin-name", "my plugin description");
- LLVM_EXPORT_REGISTRY(FrontendPluginRegistry)
Putting it all together
=======================
static FrontendPluginRegistry::Add<PrintFunctionNamesAction>
X("print-fns", "print function names");
-LLVM_EXPORT_REGISTRY(FrontendPluginRegistry)
e = Clang->getFrontendOpts().Plugins.size(); i != e; ++i) {
const std::string &Path = Clang->getFrontendOpts().Plugins[i];
std::string Error;
- llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary DL(
- llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary::getPermanentLibrary(Path.c_str(), &Error));
- if (DL.isValid()) {
- // On Windows, we need to import the plugin front-end action
- // dynamically.
- LLVM_IMPORT_REGISTRY(FrontendPluginRegistry, DL);
- } else {
+ if (llvm::sys::DynamicLibrary::LoadLibraryPermanently(Path.c_str(), &Error))
Clang->getDiagnostics().Report(diag::err_fe_unable_to_load_plugin)
<< Path << Error;
- }
}
// Honor -mllvm.
