Member Function Documentation

◆ get_global_ptr()

LoaderFileTypeRegistry * LoaderFileTypeRegistry::get_global_ptr ( )

static

Returns a pointer to the global LoaderFileTypeRegistry object.

◆ get_type_from_extension()

LoaderFileType * LoaderFileTypeRegistry::get_type_from_extension ( const std::string & extension )

Determines the type of the file based on the indicated extension (without a leading dot).

Returns NULL if the extension matches no known file types.

Definition at line 138 of file loaderFileTypeRegistry.cxx.

◆ register_deferred_type()

void LoaderFileTypeRegistry::register_deferred_type	(	const std::string &	extension,
		const std::string &	library
	)

Records a type associated with a particular extension to be loaded in the future.

The named library will be dynamically loaded the first time files of this extension are loaded; presumably this library will call register_type() when it initializes, thus making the extension loadable.
