@ -118,17 +118,37 @@ The ``dynlib`` import mechanism supports a versioning scheme:
.. code-block:: nimrod
proc Tcl_Eval(interp: pTcl_Interp, script: cstring): int {.cdecl,
importc, dynlib: "libtcl(8.5|8.4|8.3).so.(1|0)".}
importc, dynlib: "libtcl(|8.5|8.4|8.3).so.(1|0)".}
At runtime the dynamic library is searched for (in this order)::
libtcl8.5.so.1
libtcl8.4.so.1
libtcl8.3.so.1
libtcl.so.1
libtcl.so.0
libtcl8.5.so.1
libtcl8.5.so.0
libtcl8.4.so.1
libtcl8.4.so.0
libtcl8.3.so.1
libtcl8.3.so.0
The ``dynlib`` pragma supports not only constant strings as argument but also
string expressions in general:
.. code-block:: nimrod
import os
proc getDllName: string =
result = "mylib.dll"
if ExistsFile(result): return
result = "mylib2.dll"
if ExistsFile(result): return
quit("could not load dynamic library")
proc myImport(s: cstring) {.cdecl, importc, dynlib: getDllName().}
**Note**: Patterns like ``libtcl(|8.5|8.4).so`` are only supported in constant
strings, because they are precompiled.
