◆ MVPluginInfo_t

Data structure which is populated by MVInfo with basic information about the plug-in.

When a dynamic library is considered as a possible plug-in, the Communicator looks for the symbol MVInfo and calls it with a pointer to this structure. The plug-in is then expected to populate the fields with the appropriate information about itself and its capabilities, including the API version it was developed against.
