#ifndef SCRIBUS_API_H

/*
 * This header provides a macro to handle correct symbol imports/exports
 * on platforms that require explicit instructions to make symbols public,
 * or differentiate between exported and imported symbols.
 *
 * Currently, that's win32, but gcc4's facilities for more selective
 * exports can be tied into this too (see bug #1961).
 *
 * Use this macro in the declaration of classes that must be exported
 * to plug-ins. With current Scribus code, that's most of them.
 *
 * Usage examples:
 *
 * class SCRIBUS_API PageItem
 * {
 *     ...
 * };
 *
 * bool SCRIBUS_API doThatThing(void);
 *
 * For an exception type that may be thrown across a DSO boundary, you must
 * use:
 *
 * class SCEXCEPTIONAPI(SCRIBUS_API) MyException
 * {
 *     ...
 * };
 *
 * For information on the gcc visibility support see:
 *	http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility
 *	http://people.redhat.com/drepper/dsohowto.pdf
 *
