- The type of the host-provided function that the UI can use to
- send data to a plugin's input ports.
-
- The @c buffer parameter must point to a block of data, @c buffer_size bytes
- large. The contents of this buffer and what the host should do with it
- depends on the value of the @c format parameter.
-
- The @c format parameter should either be 0 or a numeric ID for a "Transfer
- mechanism". Transfer mechanisms are Features and may be defined in
- meta-extensions. They specify how to translate the data buffers passed to
- this function to input data for the plugin ports. If a UI wishes to write
- data to an input port, it must list a transfer mechanism Feature for that
- port's class as an optional or required feature (depending on whether the UI
- will work without being able to write to that port or not). The only
- exception is when the UI wants to write single float values to input ports
- of the class lv2:ControlPort, in which case @c buffer_size should always be
- 4, the buffer should always contain a single IEEE-754 float, and @c format
- should be 0.
-
- The numeric IDs for the transfer mechanisms are provided by a URI-to-integer
- mapping function provided by the host, using the URI Map feature
- <http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/uri-map> with the map URI
- "http://lv2plug.in/ns/extensions/ui". Thus a UI that requires transfer
- mechanism features also requires the URI Map feature, but this is implicit -
- the UI does not have to list the URI map feature as a required or optional
- feature in it's RDF data.
-
- An UI MUST NOT pass a @c format parameter value (except 0) that has not been
- returned by the host-provided URI mapping function for a host-supported
- transfer mechanism feature URI.
-
- The UI MUST NOT try to write to a port for which there is no specified
- transfer mechanism, or to an output port. The UI is responsible for
- allocating the buffer and deallocating it after the call.

- Tell the UI that something interesting has happened at a plugin port.
-
- What is interesting and how it is written to the buffer passed to this
- function is defined by the @c format parameter, which has the same meaning
- as in LV2UI_Write_Function. The only exception is ports of the class
- lv2:ControlPort, for which this function should be called when the port
- value changes (it does not have to be called for every single change if
- the host's UI thread has problems keeping up with the thread the plugin is
- running in), @c buffer_size should be 4, the buffer should contain a
- single IEEE-754 float, and @c format should be 0.
-
- By default, the host should only call this function for input ports of the
- lv2:ControlPort class. However, the default setting can be modified by
- using the following URIs in the UI's RDF data:
- <pre>
- uiext:portNotification
- uiext:noPortNotification
- uiext:plugin
- uiext:portIndex
- </pre>
- For example, if you want the UI with uri
- <code><http://my.pluginui></code> for the plugin with URI
- <code><http://my.plugin></code> to get notified when the value of the
- output control port with index 4 changes, you would use the following
- in the RDF for your UI:
- <pre>
- <http://my.pluginui> uiext:portNotification [ uiext:plugin <http://my.plugin> ;
- uiext:portIndex 4 ] .
- </pre>
- and similarly with <code>uiext:noPortNotification</code> if you wanted
- to prevent notifications for a port for which it would be on by default
- otherwise. The UI is not allowed to request notifications for ports of
- types for which no transfer mechanism is specified, if it does it should
- be considered broken and the host should not load it.
-
- The @c buffer is only valid during the time of this function call, so if
- the UI wants to keep it for later use it has to copy the contents to an
- internal buffer.
-
- This member may be set to NULL if the UI is not interested in any
- port events.
