MPAPI.CONF(5) File Formats and Configurations MPAPI.CONF(5)

NAME

mpapi.conf - configuration file for libMPAPI

SYNOPSIS

/etc/mpapi.conf

DESCRIPTION

The /etc/mpapi.conf file is used to specify the vendor-provided plugin
library that is installed on the system. This file is used by the
libMPAPI(3LIB) common library to load the individual plugin library when
its interface is called. If changes are made to the file while the
library is in use, the library should be unloaded and reloaded. Addition
and removal of the plugin library should be handled through
MP_RegisterPlugin(3MPAPI) and MP_DeregisterPlugin(3MPAPI).


Each plugin library entry is a single line of the form:

"id" "library file name"


where

id
The identification of the library. It is the
reversed domain name of the vendor followed by .
followed by the vendor specific name of the plugin
that uniquely identifies the plugin library.


library file name
The absolute path to the shared object library file.
