    \class QLibrary
    \inmodule QtCore
    \reentrant
    \brief The QLibrary class loads shared libraries at runtime.


    \ingroup plugins

    An instance of a QLibrary object operates on a single shared
    object file (which we call a "library", but is also known as a
    "DLL"). A QLibrary provides access to the functionality in the
    library in a platform independent way. You can either pass a file
    name in the constructor, or set it explicitly with setFileName().
    When loading the library, QLibrary searches in all the
    system-specific library locations (e.g. \c LD_LIBRARY_PATH on
    Unix), unless the file name has an absolute path.

    If the file name is an absolute path then an attempt is made to
    load this path first. If the file cannot be found, QLibrary tries
    the name with different platform-specific file prefixes, like
    "lib" on Unix and Mac, and suffixes, like ".so" on Unix, ".dylib"
    on the Mac, or ".dll" on Windows.

    If the file path is not absolute then QLibrary modifies the search
    order to try the system-specific prefixes and suffixes first,
    followed by the file path specified.

    This makes it possible to specify shared libraries that are only
    identified by their basename (i.e. without their suffix), so the
    same code will work on different operating systems yet still
    minimise the number of attempts to find the library.

    The most important functions are load() to dynamically load the
    library file, isLoaded() to check whether loading was successful,
    and resolve() to resolve a symbol in the library. The resolve()
    function implicitly tries to load the library if it has not been
    loaded yet. Multiple instances of QLibrary can be used to access
    the same physical library. Once loaded, libraries remain in memory
    until the application terminates. You can attempt to unload a
    library using unload(), but if other instances of QLibrary are
    using the same library, the call will fail, and unloading will
    only happen when every instance has called unload().

    A typical use of QLibrary is to resolve an exported symbol in a
    library, and to call the C function that this symbol represents.
    This is called "explicit linking" in contrast to "implicit
    linking", which is done by the link step in the build process when
    linking an executable against a library.

    The following code snippet loads a library, resolves the symbol
    "mysymbol", and calls the function if everything succeeded. If
    something goes wrong, e.g. the library file does not exist or the
    symbol is not defined, the function pointer will be \nullptr and
    won't be called.

    \snippet code/src_corelib_plugin_qlibrary.cpp 0

    The symbol must be exported as a C function from the library for
    resolve() to work. This means that the function must be wrapped in
    an \c{extern "C"} block if the library is compiled with a C++
    compiler. On Windows, this also requires the use of a \c dllexport
    macro; see resolve() for the details of how this is done. For
    convenience, there is a static resolve() function which you can
    use if you just want to call a function in a library without
    explicitly loading the library first:

    \snippet code/src_corelib_plugin_qlibrary.cpp 1

    \sa QPluginLoader

/*!
    \enum QLibrary::LoadHint

    This enum describes the possible hints that can be used to change the way
    libraries are handled when they are loaded. These values indicate how
    symbols are resolved when libraries are loaded, and are specified using
    the setLoadHints() function.

    \value ResolveAllSymbolsHint
    Causes all symbols in a library to be resolved when it is loaded, not
    simply when resolve() is called.
    \value ExportExternalSymbolsHint
    Exports unresolved and external symbols in the library so that they can be
    resolved in other dynamically-loaded libraries loaded later.
    \value LoadArchiveMemberHint
    Allows the file name of the library to specify a particular object file
    within an archive file.
    If this hint is given, the filename of the library consists of
    a path, which is a reference to an archive file, followed by
    a reference to the archive member.
    \value PreventUnloadHint
    Prevents the library from being unloaded from the address space if close()
    is called. The library's static variables are not reinitialized if open()
    is called at a later time.
    \value DeepBindHint
    Instructs the linker to prefer definitions in the loaded library
    over exported definitions in the loading application when resolving
    external symbols in the loaded library. This option is only supported
    on Linux.

    \sa loadHints

      systems, the read-only data/text segments are placed at the end
      of the file.  HOWEVER, when building with debugging enabled, all
      the debug symbols are placed AFTER the data/text segments.

      what does this mean?  when building in release mode, the search
      is fast because the data we are looking for is at the end of the
      file... when building in debug mode, the search is slower
      because we have to skip over all the debugging symbols first

  This opens the specified library, mmaps it into memory, and searches

  This lets us detect mismatches more safely.

  Returns  true if version information is present and successfully read.

    We recommend omitting the file's suffix in the file name, since
    QLibrary will automatically look for the file with the appropriate
    suffix (see isLibrary()).

    When loading the library, QLibrary searches in all system-specific
    library locations (for example, \c LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Unix), unless the
    file name has an absolute path. After loading the library
    successfully, fileName() returns the fully-qualified file name of
    the library, including the full path to the library if one was given
    in the constructor or passed to setFileName().

    For example, after successfully loading the "GL" library on Unix
    platforms, fileName() will return "libGL.so". If the file name was
    originally passed as "/usr/lib/libGL", fileName() will return
    "/usr/lib/libGL.so".

    \property QLibrary::loadHints
    \brief Give the load() function some hints on how it should behave.

    You can give some hints on how the symbols are resolved. Usually,
    the symbols are not resolved at load time, but resolved lazily,
    (that is, when resolve() is called). If you set the loadHints to
    ResolveAllSymbolsHint, then all symbols will be resolved at load time
    if the platform supports it.

    Setting ExportExternalSymbolsHint will make the external symbols in the
    library available for resolution in subsequent loaded libraries.

    If LoadArchiveMemberHint is set, the file name
    is composed of two components: A path which is a reference to an
    archive file followed by the second component which is the reference to
    the archive member. For instance, the fileName \c libGL.a(shr_64.o) will refer
    to the library \c shr_64.o in the archive file named \c libGL.a. This
    is only supported on the AIX platform.

    The interpretation of the load hints is platform dependent, and if
    you use it you are probably making some assumptions on which platform
    you are compiling for, so use them only if you understand the consequences
    of them.

    By default, none of these flags are set, so libraries will be loaded with
    lazy symbol resolution, and will not export external symbols for resolution
    in other dynamically-loaded libraries.

    \note Setting this property after the library has been loaded has no effect
    and loadHints() will not reflect those changes.

    \note This property is shared among all QLibrary instances that refer to
    the same library.
