◆ init()

void Gyoto::Register::init ( char const *  pluglist = NULL)

Initialise the various registers.

Normally called once at application start-up, Register::init() initiaizes the registers, loads the plug-ins, and fills the registers as appropriate.

Parameters
pluglistComa-separated list of plug-ins to load. If NULL, default to the environment variable GYOTO_PLUGINS, if it exists. Else use GYOTO_DEFAULT_PLUGINS. Failing to load a plug-in prepended with "nofail:" is not fatal.
