Changelog

• Added nullability attributes.

Release Note

• Add LoadManagerBase<T>.TryGlobalCleanup().
  • It is useful when you want to ensure that there is no loaded native library in the manager.

Release Notes

• Fix failing the second call of LoadManagerBase<T>.GlobalInit() if the first call throws an exception.

• Allow passing a custom object when loading a native library.
  • Add LoadManagerBase.GlobalInit() overloadings with custom object parameter.
  • Add DynLoaderBase.LoadLibrary() overloadings with custom object parameter.
  • Add virtual method DynLoaderBase.HandleLoadData().
  • Add helper method DynLoaderBase.HasFuncSymbol().

• Official support for ARM64 macOS.
• Unify .NET Framework 4.5.1 codebase and .NET Standard 2.0 codebase.

• Avoid calling virtual methods from constructors in DynLoaderBase.
  • Users must call DynLoaderBase.LoadLibrary after creating an instance.
  • Constructor with a library path is now obsolete. Pass a path into LoadLibrary instead.
  • It breaks the ABI compatibility of DynLoaderBase. However, LoadManagerBase was also patched to accommodate these changes.
  • If you used the LoadManagerBase interface, you can safely update Joveler.DynLoader without any code change.

• Use NativeLoader on .NET Core 3.x build.
• DynLoaderBase now throws DllNotFoundException and EntryPointNotFoundException instead of ArgumentException and InvalidOperationException.
  • The change allows consistent exception throwing and handling between a variety of .NET platforms.
  • Also, the new behavior is uniform with the way how .NET throws an exception on DllImport.
• Better and safer recursive library loading.
  • On Windows, LoadLibrary with SetDllDirectory was substituted by LoadLibraryEx with LOAD_WITH_ALTERED_SEARCH_PATH flag.
  • On POSIX, unnecessary LD_LIBRARY_PATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH manipulation was removed.
• Add a simpler version of GetFuncPtr<T>.
• Remove unnecessary redundant size_t helper methods.

• Add size_t helper methods.
• Rename AutoStringToCoTaskMem() into StringToCoTaskMemAuto().

• Address libdl.so naming issue for CentOS (#1)

• Add platform convention helper properties and methods
