- a lv2:Specification ;
- rdfs:seeAlso <dynmanifest.h> ,
- <lv2-dynmanifest.doap.ttl> ;
- lv2:documentation """
-<p>The LV2 API, on its own, cannot be used to write plugin libraries where data
-is dynamically generated at runtime (e.g. API wrappers), since LV2 requires
-needed information to be provided in one or more static data (RDF) files. This
-API addresses this limitation by extending the LV2 API.</p>
-
-<p>To detect that a plugin library implements a dynamic manifest generator,
-the host checks its static manifest for a description like:</p>
-
-<pre class="turtle-code">
-&lt;http://example.org/my-dynamic-manifest&gt;
- a dman:DynManifest ;
- lv2:binary &lt;mydynmanifest.so&gt; .
-</pre>
-
-<p>To load the data, the host loads the library
-(e.g. <code>mydynmanifest.so</code>) as usual and fetches the dynamic Turtle
-data from it using this API.</p>
-
-<p>The host is allowed to request regeneration of the dynamic manifest multiple
-times, and the plugin library is expected to provide updated data if/when
-possible. All data and references provided via this API before the last
-regeneration of the dynamic manifest is to be considered invalid by the host,
-including plugin descriptors whose URIs were discovered using this API.</p>
-
-<h3>Accessing Data</h3>
-
-<p>Whenever a host wants to access data using this API, it could:</p>
-
-<ol>
-<li>Call lv2_dyn_manifest_open().</li>
-<li>Create a FILE for functions to write data to (e.g. using tmpfile()).</li>
-<li>Get a <q>list</q> of exposed subject URIs using
- lv2_dyn_manifest_get_subjects().</li>
-<li>Call lv2_dyn_manifest_get_data() for each URI of interest to
- get the data related to that URI (which can be written to any FILE).</li>
-<li>Call lv2_dyn_manifest_close().</li>
-<li>Parse the content of the FILE(s).</li>
-<li>Free/delete/unlink the FILE(s).</li>
-</ol>
-
-<p>Each call to the above mentioned dynamic manifest functions MUST write a
-complete, valid Turtle document (including all needed prefix definitions) to
-the output FILE.</p>
-
-<p>Each call to lv2_dyn_manifest_open() causes the (re)generation of the
-dynamic manifest data, and invalidates all data fetched before the call.</p>
-
-<p>In case the plugin library uses this same API to access other dynamic
-manifests, it MUST implement some mechanism to avoid potentially endless loops
-(such as A loads B, B loads A, etc.) and, in case such a loop is detected, the
-operation MUST fail. For this purpose, use of a static boolean flag is
-suggested.</p>
-
-<h3>Threading Rules</h3>
-
-<p>All of the functions defined by this specification belong to the Discovery
-class.</p>
