/**
 * @class ACE_DLL_Handle
 *
 * @brief Provides an abstract interface for handling various DLL
 * operations.
 *
 * This class is an wrapper over the various methods for utilizing
 * a dynamically linked library (DLL), which is called a shared
 * library on some platforms.  It is refcounted and managed by
 * ACE_DLL_Manager, so there will only be a single instance of this
 * class for each dll loaded, no matter how many instances of ACE_DLL
 * an application has open.  Operations <open>, <close>, and
 * <symbol> have been implemented to help opening/closing and
 * extracting symbol information from a DLL, respectively.
 *
 * Most of this class came from the original ACE_DLL class.
 * ACE_DLL is now just an interface that passed all it's calls 
 * either directly or via ACE_DLL_Manager to this class for 
 * execution.

/**
 * @class ACE_DLL_Manager
 *
 * @brief This class is a singleton and serves as a factory and 
 * repository for instances of ACE_DLL_Handle.  
 *
 * This class is a singleton whose lifetime is managed by the 
 * ACE_Framework_Repository.  Although it is normally meant to be
 * used directly only by ACE_DLL, applications can call the unload_policy()
 * methods in order get/set the the dll unload policy.  Unload policies include
 * per_process/per-dll and eager/lazy.  Dlls can export set their own policy
 * by using the ACE_DLL_UNLOAD_POLICY macro found in config-all.h.  If a dll
 * choses to set an unload policy, it will be used when the per-dll policy
 * (the default) is in effect.  If the per-dll policy is in effect and a dll
 * has not chosen to set a policy, the current per-process policy will be 
 * used.  
 *
 * The following policy macros are provided in config-all.h:
 *
 *  ACE_DLL_UNLOAD_POLICY_PER_PROCESS - Per-process policy that unloads dlls 
 *  eagerly.
 * 
 *  ACE_DLL_UNLOAD_POLICY_PER_DLL - Apply policy on a per-dll basis.  If the 
 *  dll doesn't use one of the macros below, the current per-process policy 
 *  will be used.
 *
 *  ACE_DLL_UNLOAD_POLICY_LAZY - Don't unload dll when refcount reaches 
 *  zero, i.e., wait for either an explicit unload request or program exit.
 *
 *  ACE_DLL_UNLOAD_POLICY_DEFAULT - Default policy allows dlls to control 
 *  their own destinies, but will unload those that don't make a choice eagerly.
