-.TH Load 3 8.6 Tcl "Tcl Library Procedures"
-.so man.macros
-.BS
-.SH NAME
-Tcl_LoadFile, Tcl_FindSymbol \- platform-independent dynamic library loading
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
-.sp
-int
-\fBTcl_LoadFile\fR(\fIinterp, pathPtr, symbols, flags, procPtrs, loadHandlePtr\fR)
-.sp
-void *
-\fBTcl_FindSymbol\fR(\fIinterp, loadHandle, symbol\fR)
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.AS Tcl_LoadHandle loadHandle in
-.AP Tcl_Interp *interp in
-Interpreter to use for reporting error messages.
-.AP Tcl_Obj *pathPtr in
-The name of the file to load. If it is a single name, the library search path
-of the current environment will be used to resolve it.
-.AP "const char *const" symbols[] in
-Array of names of symbols to be resolved during the load of the library, or
-NULL if no symbols are to be resolved. If an array is given, the last entry in
-the array must be NULL.
-.AP int flags in
-The value should normally be 0, but \fITCL_LOAD_GLOBAL\fR or \fITCL_LOAD_LAZY\fR
-or a combination of those two is allowed as well.
-.AP void *procPtrs out
-Points to an array that will hold the addresses of the functions described in
-the \fIsymbols\fR argument. Should be NULL if no symbols are to be resolved.
-.AP Tcl_LoadHandle *loadHandlePtr out
-Points to a variable that will hold the handle to the abstract token
-describing the library that has been loaded.
-.AP Tcl_LoadHandle loadHandle in
-Abstract token describing the library to look up a symbol in.
-.AP "const char" *symbol in
-The name of the symbol to look up.
-.BE
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-\fBTcl_LoadFile\fR loads a file from the filesystem (including potentially any
-virtual filesystem that has been installed) and provides a handle to it that
-may be used in further operations. The \fIsymbols\fR array, if non-NULL,
-supplies a set of names of symbols (typically functions) that must be resolved
-from the library and which will be stored in the array indicated by
-\fIprocPtrs\fR. If any of the symbols is not resolved, the loading of the file
-will fail with an error message left in the interpreter (if that is non-NULL).
-The result of \fBTcl_LoadFile\fR is a standard Tcl error code. The library may
-be unloaded with \fBTcl_FSUnloadFile\fR.
-.PP
-\fBTcl_FindSymbol\fR locates a symbol in a loaded library and returns it. If
-the symbol cannot be found, it returns NULL and sets an error message in the
-given \fIinterp\fR (if that is non-NULL). Note that it is unsafe to use this
-operation on a handle that has been passed to \fBTcl_FSUnloadFile\fR.
-.SH "SEE ALSO"
-Tcl_FSLoadFile(3), Tcl_FSUnloadFile(3), load(n), unload(n)
-.SH KEYWORDS
