All,

Can someone give me some advice on how to add a library to xbmc? Perhaps post a link to a commit in github where this was done?

I have been trying to figure this out by taking an example library (libexif) and working backwards but between the autotools and the DLL wrappers I haven't succeeded with this approach.

I would like to create some functions and place them in a library that can be linked with the cores/dvdplayer/DVDInputStreams. I would like to be able to call my functions from .cpp files within DVDInputStreams.

Do you need hard linking or can the lib be dyloaded ?

You don't link to cores/dvdplayer/DVDInputStreams, that's source code. You either a) link to XBMC or dyload the lib when you need it.

see xbmc/cores/dvdplayer/DVDCodecs/Video/AMLCodec.cpp, it dyloads libamplayer.so so that functions internal to it are exposed.

Don't cross post one thread is enough i think:
