Detailed Description
Represents a dynamically loaded library.KLibrary allows you to look up symbols of the shared library. Use KLibLoader to create a new instance of KLibrary.

Don't create KLibrary objects on your own.
Instead use KLibLoader.

Member Function Documentation
KLibFactory * KLibrary::factory | ( | ) |
Returns the factory of the library.
- Returns:
- The factory of the library if there is any, otherwise 0
Definition at line 146 of file klibloader.cpp.
QString KLibrary::fileName | ( | ) | const |
Returns the file name of the library.
- Returns:
- The filename of the library, for example "/opt/kde2&/lib/libkspread.la"
Definition at line 141 of file klibloader.cpp.
bool KLibrary::hasSymbol | ( | const char * | name | ) | const |
Looks up a symbol from the library.
This is a very low level function that you usually don't want to use. Unlike symbol(), this method doesn't warn if the symbol doesn't exist, so if the symbol might or might not exist, better use hasSymbol() before symbol().
- Parameters:
-
name the name of the symbol to check
- Returns:
- true if the symbol exists
- Since:
- 3.1
Definition at line 192 of file klibloader.cpp.
QString KLibrary::name | ( | ) | const |
Returns the name of the library.
- Returns:
- The name of the library like "libkspread".
Reimplemented from QObject.

void * KLibrary::symbol | ( | const char * | name | ) | const |
Looks up a symbol from the library.
This is a very low level function that you usually don't want to use. Usually you should check using hasSymbol() whether the symbol actually exists, otherwise a warning will be printed.
- Parameters:
-
name the name of the symbol to look up
- Returns:
- the address of the symbol, or 0 if it does not exist
- See also:
- hasSymbol

void KLibrary::unload | ( | ) | const |
Unloads the library.
This typically results in the deletion of this object. You should not reference its pointer after calling this function.
