This page will contain the notes that I will make during Boostcon 2008. For a trip-report, see the Trip report boostcon 2008-page.

Boost.Extension & Boost.Reflection

Extension

Problems with shared libraries

  • performance
  • differences in semantics of open, close, getprocaddr
  • name mangling, extern "C" losing type safety
shared_library m("my_module_name");
m.open();
m.get<int(float)>(function_name")(5.0f);
m.close();

Reflection
