I think that the root of the confusion is that we call "plugins" three different objects: - python plugins - data providers - C++ plugins I think that --noplugins should only skip python (and C++?) plugins and frankly I don't see a use case for not loading data providers. -- Alessandro Pasotti w3: www.itopen.it
