* FINDING PLUGINS
___________________________________________________________________________}
{
These APIs allow you to find another plugin or yourself, or iterate across
all plugins. For example, if you wrote an FMS plugin that needed to talk
to an autopilot plugin, you could use these APIs to locate the autopilot
plugin.
}
{
XPLMGetMyID
This routine returns the plugin ID of the calling plug-in. Call this to
get your own ID.
}
FUNCTION XPLMGetMyID: XPLMPluginID;
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMCountPlugins
This routine returns the total number of plug-ins that are loaded, both
disabled and enabled.
}
FUNCTION XPLMCountPlugins: Integer;
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMGetNthPlugin
This routine returns the ID of a plug-in by index. Index is 0 based from 0
to XPLMCountPlugins-1, inclusive. Plugins may be returned in any arbitrary
order.
}
FUNCTION XPLMGetNthPlugin(
inIndex : Integer) : XPLMPluginID;
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMFindPluginByPath
This routine returns the plug-in ID of the plug-in whose file exists at the
passed in absolute file system path. XPLM_NO_PLUGIN_ID is returned if the
path does not point to a currently loaded plug-in.
}
FUNCTION XPLMFindPluginByPath(
inPath : XPLMString) : XPLMPluginID;
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMFindPluginBySignature
This routine returns the plug-in ID of the plug-in whose signature matches
what is passed in or XPLM_NO_PLUGIN_ID if no running plug-in has this
signature. Signatures are the best way to identify another plug-in as they
are independent of the file system path of a plug-in or the human-readable
plug-in name, and should be unique for all plug-ins. Use this routine to
locate another plugin that your plugin interoperates with
}
FUNCTION XPLMFindPluginBySignature(
inSignature : XPLMString) : XPLMPluginID;
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMGetPluginInfo
This routine returns information about a plug-in. Each parameter should be
a pointer to a buffer of at least
256 characters, or NULL to not receive the information.
outName - the human-readable name of the plug-in. outFilePath - the
absolute file path to the file that contains this plug-in. outSignature - a
unique string that identifies this plug-in. outDescription - a
human-readable description of this plug-in.

These routines are used to work with plug-ins and manage them. Most
plugins will not need to use these APIs.

Returns whether the specified plug-in is enabled for running.
}
FUNCTION XPLMIsPluginEnabled(
inPluginID : XPLMPluginID) : Integer;

{
XPLMEnablePlugin
This routine enables a plug-in if it is not already enabled. It returns 1
if the plugin was enabled or successfully enables itself, 0 if it does not.
Plugins may fail to enable (for example, if resources cannot be acquired)
by returning 0 from their XPluginEnable callback.
}
FUNCTION XPLMEnablePlugin(
inPluginID : XPLMPluginID) : Integer;

This routine disableds an enabled plug-in.
}
PROCEDURE XPLMDisablePlugin(
inPluginID : XPLMPluginID);
cdecl; external XPLM_DLL;
{
XPLMReloadPlugins
This routine reloads all plug-ins. Once this routine is called and you
return from the callback you were within (e.g. a menu select callback) you
will receive your XPluginDisable and XPluginStop callbacks and your DLL
will be unloaded, then the start process happens as if the sim was starting
up.

{___________________________________________________________________________
* INTERPLUGIN MESSAGING
___________________________________________________________________________}
{
Plugin messages are defined as 32-bit integers. Messages below 0x00FFFFFF
are reserved for X-Plane and the plugin SDK.
Messages come with a pointer parameter; the meaning of this pointer depends
on the message itself. In some messages, the pointer parameter contains an
actual typed pointer to data that can be inspected in the plugin; in these
cases the documentation will state that the parameter "points to"
information.
in other cases, the value of the pointer is actually an integral number
stuffed into the pointer's storage. In these second cases, the pointer
parameter needs to be cast, not dereferenced. In these caess, the
documentation will state that the parameter "contains" a value, which will
always be an integral type.
Some messages don't use the pointer parameter - in this case your plugin
should ignore it.
Messages have two conceptual uses: notifications and commands. Commands
are sent from one plugin to another to induce behavior; notifications are
sent from one plugin to all others for informational purposes. It is
important that commands and notifications not have the same values because
this could cause a notification sent by one plugin to accidentally induce a
command in another.
By convention, plugin-defined notifications should have the high bit set
(e.g. be greater or equal to unsigned 0x8000000) while commands should have
this bit be cleared.
The following messages are sent to your plugin by X-Plane.

* Plugin Features API
___________________________________________________________________________}
{
The plugin features API allows your plugin to "sign up" for additional
capabilities and plugin system features that are normally disabled for
backward compatibility or performance. This allows advanced plugins to
"opt-in" to new behavior.
Each feature is defined by a permanent string name. The feature string
names will vary with the particular installation of X-Plane, so plugins
should not expect a feature to be guaranteed present.
XPLM_WANTS_REFLECTIONS
----------------------
Available in the SDK 2.0 and later for X-Plane 9, enabling this capability
causes your plugin to receive drawing hook callbacks when X-Plane builds
its off-screen reflection and shadow rendering passes. Plugins should
enable this and examine the dataref sim/graphics/view/plane_render_type to
determine whether the drawing callback is for a reflection, shadow
calculation, or the main screen. Rendering can be simlified or omitted for
reflections, and non-solid drawing should be skipped for shadow
calculations.
**Note**: direct drawing via draw callbacks is not recommended; use the
XPLMInstance API to create object models instead.
XPLM_USE_NATIVE_PATHS
---------------------
available in the SDK 2.1 and later for X-Plane 10, this modifies the plugin
system to use Unix-style paths on all operating systems. With this enabled:
* OS X paths will match the native OS X Unix.
* Windows will use forward slashes but preserve C:\ or another drive letter
when using complete file paths.
* Linux uses its native file system path scheme.
Without this enabled:
* OS X will use CFM file paths separated by a colon.
* Windows will use back-slashes and conventional DOS paths.
* Linux uses its native file system path scheme.
All plugins should enable this feature on OS X to access the native file
system.
XPLM_USE_NATIVE_WIDGET_WINDOWS
------------------------------
Available in the SDK 3.0.2 SDK, this capability tells the widgets library
to use new, modern X-Plane backed XPLMDisplay windows to anchor all widget
trees. Without it, widgets will always use legacy windows.
Plugins should enable this to allow their widget hierarchies to respond to
the user's UI size settings and to map widget-based windwos to a VR HMD.
Before enabling this, make sure any custom widget code in your plugin is
prepared to cope with the UI coordinate system not being th same as the
OpenGL window coordinate system.
XPLM_WANTS_DATAREF_NOTIFICATIONS
--------------------------------
Available in the SDK 4.0.0, this capability tells X-Plane to to send the
enabling plugin the new XPLM_MSG_DATAREFS_ADDED message any time new
datarefs are added. The SDK will coalesce consecutive dataref registrations
to minimize the number of messages sent.
