6 @brief Routines to load and manage shared object libraries.
8 Every method of a service is implemented by a C function. In a few cases those
9 functions are generic to all services. In other cases they are loaded and executed from
10 a shared object library that is specific to the application offering the service, A
11 registry maps method names to function names so that we can call the right function.
13 Each such function has a similar signature:
15 int method_name( osrfMethodContext* ctx );
17 The return value is negative in case of an error. A return code of zero implies that
18 the method has already sent the client a STATUS message to say that it is finished.
19 A return code greater than zero implies that the method has not sent such a STATUS
20 message, so we need to do so after the method returns.
22 Any arguments passed to the method are bundled together in a jsonObject inside the
25 An application's shared object may also implement any or all of three standard functions:
27 - int osrfAppInitialize( void ) Called when an application is registered
28 - int osrfAppChildInit( void ) Called when a server drone is spawned
29 - void osrfAppChildExit( void ) Called when a server drone terminates
31 osrfAppInitialize() and osrfAppChild return zero if successful, and non-zero if not.

37 #include <opensrf/osrf_hash.h>
39 #include <opensrf/osrf_json.h>
48 All OpenSRF methods take the signature
49 int methodName( osrfMethodContext* );
50 If a negative number is returned, it means an unknown error occured and an exception
51 will be returned to the client automatically.
52 If a positive number is returned, it means that libopensrf should send a 'Request Complete'
53 message following any messages sent by the method.
54 If 0 is returned, it tells libopensrf that the method completed successfully and
55 there is no need to send any further data to the client.

98 @brief Macros that get OR'd together to form method options.
102 @brief Notes that the method may return more than one result.
104 For a @em streaming method, we register both an atomic method and a non-atomic method.

108 @brief Notes that a previous result to the same call may be available in memcache.
110 Before calling the registered function, a cachable method checks memcache for a previously
111 determined result for the same call. If no such result is available, it calls the
112 registered function and caches the new result before returning.
114 This caching is not currently implemented for C methods.
