[xine-devel] Suggestion to remove plugin's requirement to libxine linkage.

[James Courtier-D. <Ja...@su...>]

Hi,

I was trying to think of a way to remove xine-lib plugin's from needing 
to link with libxine. It is libxine that is loading the plugins after 
all, so it seams fairly pointless.

My idea is to have any callbacks that the plugin might need to make to 
libxine to be passed as function pointers during the plugin 
loading/initialisation.

Plugins only need a very small subset to calls to libxine.

This would remove the requirement to relink all plugins during install.

Any comments?

Cheers
James
