/**
 * @file
 * @brief This file is used by modules for module declaration and module
 *        exports.
 *
 * @page modules_page Modules
 * @brief Modules or plugins are libraries that can be loaded by libobs and
 *        subsequently interact with it.
 *
 * @section modules_overview_sec Overview
 *
 * Modules can provide a wide range of functionality to libobs, they for example
 * can feed captured audio or video to libobs, or interface with an encoder to
 * provide some codec to libobs.
 *
 * @section modules_basic_sec Creating a basic module
 *
 * In order to create a module for libobs you will need to build a shared
 * library that implements a basic interface for libobs to interact with.
 * The following code would create a simple source plugin without localization:
 *
@code
#include <obs-module.h>

OBS_DECLARE_MODULE()

extern struct obs_source_info my_source;

bool obs_module_load(void)
{
	obs_register_source(&my_source);
	return true;
}
@endcode
 *
 * If you want to enable localization, you will need to also use the
 * @ref OBS_MODULE_USE_DEFAULT_LOCALE() macro.
 *
 * Other module types:
 * - @ref obs_register_encoder()
 * - @ref obs_register_service()
 * - @ref obs_register_output()
 *
