Includes alias methods and macro. You can include this header or boost/dll/shared_library.hpp to reduce dependencies in case you do not use the refcountable functions.

Contains only the boost::dll::library_info class that is capable of extracting different information from binaries.

namespace boost {
  namespace dll {
    class library_info;
  }
}

Provides methods for getting acceptable by boost::dll::shared_library location of symbol, source line or program.

namespace boost {
  namespace dll {
    template<typename T> 
      boost::filesystem::path 
      symbol_location_ptr(T, boost::system::error_code &);
    template<typename T> boost::filesystem::path symbol_location_ptr(T);

    boost::filesystem::path this_line_location();
    boost::filesystem::path program_location(boost::system::error_code &);
    boost::filesystem::path program_location();
  }
}

Contains the boost::dll::shared_library class, core class for all the DLL/DSO operations.

namespace boost {
  namespace dll {
    class shared_library;

    // Very fast equality check that compares the actual DLL/DSO objects. Throws nothing. 
    bool operator==(const shared_library & lhs, const shared_library & rhs);

    // Very fast inequality check that compares the actual DLL/DSO objects. Throws nothing. 
    bool operator!=(const shared_library & lhs, const shared_library & rhs);

    // Compare the actual DLL/DSO objects without any guarantee to be stable between runs. Throws nothing. 
    bool operator<(const shared_library & lhs, const shared_library & rhs);

    // Swaps two shared libraries. Does not invalidate symbols and functions loaded from libraries. Throws nothing. 
    void swap(shared_library & lhs, shared_library & rhs);
  }
}

Contains only the boost::dll::load_mode::type enum and operators related to it.

namespace boost {
  namespace dll {
    namespace load_mode {
      enum type;

      // Free operators for load_mode::type flag manipulation. 
      BOOST_CONSTEXPR type operator|(type left, type right);
      BOOST_CXX14_CONSTEXPR type & operator|=(type & left, type right);
      BOOST_CONSTEXPR type operator&(type left, type right);
      BOOST_CXX14_CONSTEXPR type & operator&=(type & left, type right);
      BOOST_CONSTEXPR type operator^(type left, type right);
      BOOST_CXX14_CONSTEXPR type & operator^=(type & left, type right);
      BOOST_CONSTEXPR type operator~(type left);
    }
  }
}

Contains the boost::dll::experimental::smart_library class for loading mangled symbols.

	Warning
	Extremely experimental! Requires C++14! Will change in next version of Boost! boost/dll/smart_library.hpp is not included in boost/dll.hpp

namespace boost {

        void get(const smart_library &, const std::string &);
      template<typename T> 
        T & get(const smart_library & sm, const std::string & name, 
                typename boost::enable_if< boost::is_object< T >, T >::type * = nullptr);
      template<typename T> 
        auto get(const smart_library & sm, const std::string & name,

      template<typename Class, typename Signature> 
        auto get(const smart_library &, const std::string &);
    }
  }
}

Contains all the boost::dll::import* reference counting functions that hold a shared pointer to the instance of boost::dll::shared_library.
