NAME
load_module - load a binary module

SYNTAX
int load_module(string module_name);

DESCRIPTION
This function loads a module written in C or some other language into Pike. The module is initialized and any programs or constants defined will immediately be available.

When a module is loaded the functions init_module_efuns and init_module_programs are called to initialize it. When Pike exits exit_module is called in all dynamically loaded modules. These functions _must_ be available in the module.

Please see the source and any examples available at ftp://www.infovav.se/pub/pike for more information on how to write modules for Pike in C.

BUGS
Please use "./name.so" instead of just "foo.so" for the module name. If you use just "foo.se" the module will not be found.
