Ah, well thats kind of important. I understand that Windows is quite

Is there some equivalent mechanism that lets dlloaded plugins dig function
pointers out of the the host? Thier public symbol linking system is
backward too from what I remember.
I don't think theres any reason to stop Windows users being able to share
the love, should they so choose. I used to get a lot of mail asking for
advice on how to compile my plugins on Windows until I put a note on the
website saying I couldn't help.

I mean the
linker should do it. If you dynamically build the plugin
against a stub library and the host exports something with the same ABI, I
/think/ the plugin should have the host's version of the function in its
namespace.
this is not TRUE on windows.
otherwise yes.
