What about this (translate it to C in your heads
:) ):
interface IURIRegistryObserver
{
// function in plugin etc. called by host whenever new URI is registered
void mapping_added(int id, const char *uri);
};
interface IURIRegistry
{
int uri_to_id(const char *uri, bool create_if_absent);
const char *id_to_uri(int id);
void add_observer(IURIRegistryObserver *observer);
void remove_observer(IURIRegistryObserver *observer);
};
interface IURIRegistries
{
IURIRegistry *get_registry(const char *registry_uri);
};
I don't like having something this complicated in an extension that is
going to be required if you just want to write a simple synth with a
MIDI input. Is there really any need for adding and removing mappings
dynamically? Just passing an array in the LV2_Feature data would be
enough for me.
Simple is nice, but somewhat closed ended.
How about simply passing a function pointer which converts a string to
an int? (in a Feature struct so things can be added for a more advanced
symbol system in the future)
Easier on the plugin author to just call a function than have to
implement that search all over the place anyway.
