Author: David Woodhouse Date: To: exim-dev Subject: [exim-dev] [PATCH] Dynamically loaded lookups -- part 1.
First step -- make search_findtype() return a 'struct lookup_info *'
instead of an index into the lookup_list[] array. Patch attached.
Next we'll probably want to get rid of lookup_list[] altogether and use
a tree of available lookup types instead. Then we can actually look at
making them dynamically loadable.
I'm slightly dubious about getting rid of lookup_list[], because that'll
mean we have to build the lookup tree at process startup time _every_
time. I wonder if we should use lookup_list[] _and_ a separate tree of
dynamically-added lookup types? Or maybe we can come up with some hack
so the tree is inside the binary is already built correctly?
