One thing I could ask for is a reference in the docs to where I can find the correspondence between api and abi. Maybe thats the wrong question, but anyway, how do i know which abi version I need? This is in regards to PLUGIN_VERSION_CHECK(xxx)
As mentioned in other replies, there's the wiki page that maps API, ABI and other versions into a simple table.
IMO, plugin authors shouldn't have to bother with ABI numbers at all and API numbers should be transparent. If I want to write a plugin, I would like to have some boilerplate like:
#include <geanyplugins.h> GEANY_PLUGIN_REGISTER(1, 24, 0, /* min supported geany version */ "Hello World", "0.01", "Another hello world", "You <you@yourdomain.org>"); void plugin_load(GeanyPlugin *plugin) { g_print("Loading plugin '%s'...\n", geany_plugin_get_name(plugin)); } void plugin_unload(GeanyPlugin *plugin) { g_print("Unloading plugin '%s'...\n", geany_plugin_get_name(plugin)); }Cheers, Matthew Brush _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devel
Thank you for this example. One question I have after looking at this (and I mentioned this in my original post) is whether there is any reason to grab the param that is passed to plugin_load. Does it not point to the same as the global variable?
But back to the version number. I don't think I'm getting through to any of you. You know where the answer is, and now I know where the numbers are (I won't commit to knowing the answer yet). But that's not my point.
The web is a cool thing. Y'all'r reading a page and you have a question. One click and you have the answer.
Its that one click I'm asking for. Put that one click where the question is, so folks can read what the answer is.
