Global Call

   LWServerInfo *srvinfo;
   srvinfo = global( LWSERVERINFO_GLOBAL, GFUSE_TRANSIENT );

The global function returns a pointer to an LWServerInfo.

   typedef struct st_LWServerInfo {
      const char* (*path)     (const char *, const char *);
   } LWServerInfo;

path = path( class, name )

Returns a full path value to the plug-in module identified by the class and name. The path value is formatted for the current platform. A built-in module is indicated by an empty string (""). If the values do not match any plug-in modules defined in the database, a NULL value is returned.
