These APIs allow you to find another plugin or yourself, or iterate across
all plugins. For example, if you wrote an FMS plugin that needed to talk
to an autopilot plugin, you could use these APIs to locate the autopilot
plugin.

XPLMGetMyID
This routine returns the plugin ID of the calling plug-in. Call this to
get your own ID.

signature. Signatures are the best way to identify another plug-in as they
are independent of the file system path of a plug-in or the human-readable

locate another plugin that your plugin interoperates with

a pointer to a buffer of at least 256 characters, or NULL to not receive
the information.

return from the callback you were within (e.g. a menu select callback) you

will be unloaded, then the start process happens as if the sim was starting
up.

* INTERPLUGIN MESSAGING
___________________________________________________________________________}
{
Plugin messages are defined as 32-bit integers. Messages below 0x00FFFFFF
are reserved for X-Plane and the plugin SDK.
Messages have two conceptual uses: notifications and commands. Commands
are sent from one plugin to another to induce behavior; notifications are
sent from one plugin to all others for informational purposes. It is
important that commands and notifications not have the same values because
this could cause a notification sent by one plugin to accidentally induce a
command in another.
By convention, plugin-defined notifications should have the high bit set
(e.g. be greater or equal to unsigned 0x8000000) while commands should have
this bit be cleared.
The following messages are sent to your plugin by x-plane.
}
CONST
{ This message is sent to your plugin whenever the user's plane crashes. }
XPLM_MSG_PLANE_CRASHED = 101;
{ This message is sent to your plugin whenever a new plane is loaded. The }
{ parameter is the number of the plane being loaded; 0 indicates the user's }
{ plane. }
XPLM_MSG_PLANE_LOADED = 102;
{ This messages is called whenever the user's plane is positioned at a new }
{ airport. }
XPLM_MSG_AIRPORT_LOADED = 103;
{ This message is sent whenever new scenery is loaded. Use datarefs to }
{ determine the new scenery files that were loaded. }
XPLM_MSG_SCENERY_LOADED = 104;
{ This message is sent whenever the user adjusts the number of X-Plane }
{ aircraft models. You must use XPLMCountPlanes to find out how many planes }
{ are now available. This message will only be sent in XP7 and higher }
{ because in XP6 the number of aircraft is not user-adjustable. }
XPLM_MSG_AIRPLANE_COUNT_CHANGED = 105;
{$IFDEF XPLM200}
{ This message is sent to your plugin whenever a plane is unloaded. The }
{ parameter is the number of the plane being unloaded; 0 indicates the user's }
{ plane. The parameter is of type int, passed as the value of the pointer. }
{ (That is: the parameter is an int, not a pointer to an int.) }
XPLM_MSG_PLANE_UNLOADED = 106;
{$ENDIF}
{$IFDEF XPLM210}
{ This message is sent to your plugin right before X-Plane writes its }
{ preferences file. You can use this for two purposes: to write your own }
{ preferences, and to modify any datarefs to influence preferences output. }
{ For example, if your plugin temporarily modifies saved preferences, you can }
{ put them back to their default values here to avoid having the tweaks be }
{ persisted if your plugin is not loaded on the next invocation of X-Plane. }
XPLM_MSG_WILL_WRITE_PREFS = 107;
{$ENDIF}
{$IFDEF XPLM210}
{ This message is sent to your plugin right after a livery is loaded for an }
{ airplane. You can use this to check the new livery (via datarefs) and }
{ react accordingly. The parameter is of type int, passed as the value of a }
{ pointer and represents the aicraft plane number - 0 is the user's plane. }
XPLM_MSG_LIVERY_LOADED = 108;
{$ENDIF}
{
XPLMSendMessageToPlugin
This function sends a message to another plug-in or X-Plane. Pass
XPLM_NO_PLUGIN_ID to broadcast to all plug-ins. Only enabled plug-ins with
a message receive function receive the message.
}

* Plugin Features API
___________________________________________________________________________}
{
The plugin features API allows your plugin to "sign up" for additional
capabilities and plugin system features that are normally disabled for
backward compatibility. This allows advanced plugins to "opt-in" to new
behavior.
Each feature is defined by a permanent string name. The feature string
names will vary with the particular installation of X-Plane, so plugins
should not expect a feature to be guaranteed present.
}
{
XPLMFeatureEnumerator_f
You pass an XPLMFeatureEnumerator_f to get a list of all features supported
by a given version running version of X-Plane. This routine is called once
for each feature.
}
TYPE
XPLMFeatureEnumerator_f = PROCEDURE(
inFeature : Pchar;
inRef : pointer); cdecl;
{
XPLMHasFeature
This returns 1 if the given installation of X-Plane supports a feature, or
0 if it does not.
}

inFeature : Pchar) : integer;
{$IFDEF DELPHI}
cdecl; external 'XPLM.DLL';
{$ELSE}
cdecl; external '';
{$ENDIF}
{
XPLMIsFeatureEnabled
This returns 1 if a feature is currently enabled for your plugin, or 0 if
it is not enabled. It is an error to call this routine with an unsupported
feature.
}
FUNCTION XPLMIsFeatureEnabled(
inFeature : Pchar) : integer;
{$IFDEF DELPHI}
cdecl; external 'XPLM.DLL';
{$ELSE}
cdecl; external '';
{$ENDIF}
{
XPLMEnableFeature
This routine enables or disables a feature for your plugin. This will
change the running behavior of X-Plane and your plugin in some way,
depending on the feature.
}
PROCEDURE XPLMEnableFeature(
inFeature : Pchar;
inEnable : integer);
{$IFDEF DELPHI}
cdecl; external 'XPLM.DLL';
{$ELSE}
cdecl; external '';
{$ENDIF}
{
XPLMEnumerateFeatures
This routine calls your enumerator callback once for each feature that this
running version of X-Plane supports. Use this routine to determine all of
the features that X-Plane can support.
}
