//=============================================================================//
// This makes it easy to dynamically load a shared library and lookup a
// function in that library.
//
// Usage:
// CDynamicFunction<void (*)(const char *)> MyPuts(libname, "puts");
// if (MyPuts)
// MyPuts("Hello world!");
//
// Please note that this interface does not distinguish between functions and
// data. If you look up a global variable in your shared library, or simply
// mess up the function signature, you'll get a valid pointer and a crash
// if you call it as a function.
