--- 1,22 ----

+
+ * Restore the old behaviour again:
+ cdll/windll have LoadLibrary method, and no other public attributes.
+ CDLL/WinDLL accept library pathname in the constructor, that's the
+ only public attribute: all the find(), load(), and load_library()
+ methods are gone.
+
+ The ctypes._loader module has been removed completely.
+
+ ctypes.util has been revived, it implements a find_library()
+ function which should be useful to find libraries from the linker
+ name (on platforms where this makes sense):
+
+ find_library("c") -> "/usr/lib/libc.so.6" (Linux)
+ find_library("c") -> "/usr/lib/libc.dylib" (OS X)
+ find_library("msvcr71") -> "c:\windows\system32\msvcr71.dll" (Windows)
+
+ If the library is not found, None is returned.
