C++ Language Module for Plugify

The C++ Language Module for Plugify enables developers to write plugins in C++ for the Plugify framework. This module provides a seamless integration for C++ plugins, allowing them to be dynamically loaded and managed by the Plugify core.

Features

• C++ Plugin Support: Write your plugins in C++ and integrate them effortlessly with the Plugify framework.
• Automatic Exporting: Easily export and import methods between plugins and the language module.
• Initialization and Cleanup: Handle plugin initialization, startup, and cleanup with dedicated module events.
• Interoperability: Communicate with plugins written in other languages through auto-generated interfaces.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• C++ Compiler with C++11 support
• Plugify Framework Installed

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/untrustedmodders/cpp-lang-module.git
   cd cpp-lang-module
   git submodule update --init --recursive

2. Build the C++ language module:

   mkdir build && cd build
   cmake ..
   cmake --build .

Usage

1. Integration with Plugify

   Ensure that your C++ language module is available in the same directory as your Plugify setup.

2. Write C++ Plugins

   Develop your plugins in C++ using the Plugify C++ API. Refer to the Plugify C++ Plugin Guide for detailed instructions.

3. Build and Install Plugins

   Compile your C++ plugins and place the shared libraries in a directory accessible to the Plugify core.

4. Run Plugify

   Start the Plugify framework, and it will dynamically load your C++ plugins.

Example

#include <plugify/cpp_plugin.h>
#include <plugin_export.h>
#include <iostream>

class ExamplePlugin : public plugify::IPluginEntry {
public:
	void OnPluginStart() override {
		std::cout << "Example Start!" << std::endl;
	}

	void OnPluginEnd() override {
		std::cout << "Example End!" << std::endl;
	}
} g_examplePlugin;
