<p>This extension is used to create User Interfaces (UIs) for LV2 plugins.</p>

<p>UIs are implemented as an LV2UI_Descriptor loaded via lv2ui_descriptor() in
a shared library, and are distributed in bundles just like plugins.</p>

<p>UIs are associated with plugins in data:</p>

<pre class="turtle-code">
@prefix ui: &lt;http://lv2plug.in/ns/extensions/ui#&gt; .

&lt;http://my.plugin&gt;   ui:ui     &lt;http://my.pluginui&gt; .
&lt;http://my.pluginui&gt; a         ui:GtkUI ;
                     ui:binary &lt;myui.so&gt; .
</pre>

<p>where &lt;http://my.plugin&gt; is the URI of the plugin,
&lt;http://my.pluginui&gt; is the URI of the plugin UI and &lt;myui.so&gt; is
the relative URI to the shared object file.</p>

<p>While it is possible to have the plugin UI and the plugin in the same shared
object file it is probably a good idea to keep them separate so that hosts that
don't want UIs don't have to load the UI code.  A UI MUST specify its class in
the RDF data (ui:GtkUI in the above example). The class defines what type the
UI is, e.g. what graphics toolkit it uses.  Any type of UI class can be defined
separately from this extension.</p>

<p>It is possible to have multiple UIs for the same plugin, or to have the UI
for a plugin in a different bundle from the actual plugin - this way people
other than the plugin author can write plugin UIs independently without editing
the original plugin bundle.</p>

<p>Note that the process that loads the shared object file containing the UI
code and the process that loads the shared object file containing the actual
plugin implementation are not necessarily the same process (and not even
necessarily on the same machine).  This means that plugin and UI code MUST NOT
use singletons and global variables and expect them to refer to the same
objects in the UI and the actual plugin. The function callback interface
defined in this header is the only method of communication between UIs and
plugin instances (extensions may define more, though this is discouraged unless
absolutely necessary since the significant benefits of network transparency and
serialisability are lost).</p>

<p>UI functionality may be extended via features, much like plugins:</p>

<pre class="turtle-code">
&lt;http://my.pluginui&gt; lv2:requiredFeature &lt;http://my.feature&gt; .
&lt;http://my.pluginui&gt; lv2:optionalFeature &lt;http://my.feature&gt; .
</pre>

<p>The rules for a UI with a required or optional feature are identical to
those of lv2:Plugin instances: if a UI declares a feature as required, the host
is NOT allowed to load it unless it supports that feature; and if it does
support a feature, it MUST pass an appropriate LV2_Feature struct to the UI's
instantiate() method.  This extension defines several standard features for
common functionality.</p>

<p>UIs written to this specification do not need to be thread-safe.  All
functions may only be called in the <q>UI thread</q>.  There is only one UI
thread (for toolkits, the one the UI main loop runs in).  There is no
requirement that a <q>UI</q> actually be a graphical widget.</p>

<p>Note that UIs are completely separate from plugins.  From the plugin's
perspective, control from a UI is indistinguishable from any other control, as
it all occcurs via ports.</p>
