pub struct PluginContext { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

This represents the context which is needed to access REAPER functions from plug-ins.

Once obtained, it is supposed to be passed to Reaper::load().

Implementations

Creates a plug-in context from an extension entry point plug-in info.

It requires a module handle and the pointer to a reaper_plugin_info_t struct. REAPER provides both when calling the ReaperPluginEntry function (the main entry point for any extension plug-in).

It’s recommended to use the reaper_extension_plugin macro in the reaper-macros crate instead of calling this function directly.

Errors

Returns an error if the given plug-in info is not suitable for loading REAPER functions.

Safety

REAPER can crash if you pass an invalid pointer.

Creates a plug-in context from a VST host callback.

It requires the host callback which vst-rs passes to the plugin’s new() function.

Errors

Returns an error if the given host callback is not suitable for loading REAPER functions.

Returns a generic API function by its name.

Safety

REAPER can crash if you pass an invalid pointer.

On Windows, this returns the HINSTANCE passed to DllMain (VST plug-ins) or ReaperPluginEntry (extension plug-ins).

The returned HINSTANCE represents the handle of the module (DLL) containing the plug-in.

On Linux, this returns null.

On Linux, this returns a pointer to a function for getting a generic SWELL API function by its name.

On Windows, this returns None.

Returns the type-specific plug-in context.

Returns whether we are currently in the main thread.
