Initializing help system before first use

Turning a static module into a DSO

It requires only little work to transform a static module into a dynamic one (and vice versa). Assuming we would like to turn our module meminit into a DSO, we simply have to

  • save all the functions of the module and the definition of the structures for passing information into a separate file;
  • replace the prototype of the module initialization function by the following:
     DSO_INIT meminit_init(XPRMnifct nifct, int *interver, int *libver,
                           XPRMdsointer **interf)
