           line="99">These functions provide a portable way to dynamically load object files
(commonly known as 'plug-ins'). The current implementation supports all
systems that provide an implementation of dlopen() (e.g. Linux/Sun), as
well as Windows platforms via DLLs.

A program which wants to use these functions must be linked to the
libraries output by the command `pkg-config --libs gmodule-2.0`.

To use them you must first determine whether dynamic loading
is supported on the platform by calling g_module_supported().
If it is, you can open a module with g_module_open(),
find the module's symbols (e.g. function names) with g_module_symbol(),
and later close the module with g_module_close().
g_module_name() will return the file name of a currently opened module.

If any of the above functions fail, the error status can be found with
g_module_error().

The #GModule implementation features reference counting for opened modules,
and supports hook functions within a module which are called when the
module is loaded and unloaded (see #GModuleCheckInit and #GModuleUnload).

If your module introduces static data to common subsystems in the running
program, e.g. through calling
`g_quark_from_static_string ("my-module-stuff")`,
it must ensure that it is never unloaded, by calling g_module_make_resident().

Example: Calling a function defined in a GModule
|[&lt;!-- language="C" --&gt;
// the function signature for 'say_hello'
typedef void (* SayHelloFunc) (const char *message);

gboolean
just_say_hello (const char *filename, GError **error)
{
  SayHelloFunc  say_hello;
  GModule      *module;

  module = g_module_open (filename, G_MODULE_BIND_LAZY);
  if (!module)
    {
      g_set_error (error, FOO_ERROR, FOO_ERROR_BLAH,
                   "%s", g_module_error ());
      return FALSE;
    }

  if (!g_module_symbol (module, "say_hello", (gpointer *)&amp;say_hello))
    {
      g_set_error (error, SAY_ERROR, SAY_ERROR_OPEN,
                   "%s: %s", filename, g_module_error ());
      if (!g_module_close (module))
        g_warning ("%s: %s", filename, g_module_error ());
      return FALSE;
    }

  if (say_hello == NULL)
    {
      g_set_error (error, SAY_ERROR, SAY_ERROR_OPEN,
                   "symbol say_hello is NULL");
      if (!g_module_close (module))
        g_warning ("%s: %s", filename, g_module_error ());
      return FALSE;
    }

  // call our function in the module
  say_hello ("Hello world!");

  if (!g_module_close (module))
    g_warning ("%s: %s", filename, g_module_error ());
  return TRUE;
