Hi,

I wonder if the Home is already using GTypePlugin interface and dynamic types to handle the types registered by the plugins. That would be the right (tm) way to handle this in the scope of GObject... In the case of register_static one can newer unload the modules.

However it seems that this function isn't called when switching off

have I missed something? How should it be done properly?


Hi,

sorry for the very late answer,

home is not dlclosing the plugins, because many plugins (including the
shipped ones) register GType. dlclosing the re-opening them results in
them trying to re-register the types, even though glib already knows
about them.

The same handle from dlopen is reused if the applet is reopened.
