<h3 class="section">23.1 Loading Plugins</h3>
<p>Plugins are supported on platforms that support <samp>-ldl
-rdynamic</samp>. They are loaded by the compiler using <code>dlopen</code>
and invoked at pre-determined locations in the compilation
process.
</p>
<p>Plugins are loaded with
</p>
<p><samp>-fplugin=/path/to/<var>name</var>.so</samp> <samp>-fplugin-arg-<var>name</var>-<var>key1</var>[=<var>value1</var>]</samp>
</p>
<p>The plugin arguments are parsed by GCC and passed to respective
plugins as key-value pairs. Multiple plugins can be invoked by
specifying multiple <samp>-fplugin</samp> arguments.
</p>
<p>A plugin can be simply given by its short name (no dots or
slashes). When simply passing <samp>-fplugin=<var>name</var></samp>, the plugin is
loaded from the <samp>plugin</samp> directory, so <samp>-fplugin=<var>name</var></samp> is
the same as <samp>-fplugin=`gcc -print-file-name=plugin`/<var>name</var>.so</samp>,
using backquote shell syntax to query the <samp>plugin</samp> directory.
</p>
