\page pi_structure Structure of a module

A NetIDMgr module is essentially a dynamically loadable library with a
specific set of exported symbols.  Each export symbol and general
notes about writing a plugin module are documented below.

\section pi_str_init Initialization

Do not use DllMain or other system specific callback routines to
perform intilization tasks other than creating mutexes, initializing
thread local storage and other tasks that must be performed at that
stage.  Specifically, do not call any NetIDMgr API functions from
within DllMain.

\section pi_str_cb Callbacks

The callbacks that must be implemented by a module are:

- init_module()
- exit_module()
