 <a name="gio-Extension-Points.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
 <p>
 <a class="link" href="gio-Extension-Points.html#GIOExtensionPoint" title="GIOExtensionPoint"><span class="type">GIOExtensionPoint</span></a> provides a mechanism for modules to extend the
 functionality of the library or application that loaded it in an
 organized fashion.
 </p>
 <p>
 An extension point is identified by a name, and it may optionally
 require that any implementation must by of a certain type (or derived
 thereof). Use <a class="link" href="gio-Extension-Points.html#g-io-extension-point-register" title="g_io_extension_point_register ()"><code class="function">g_io_extension_point_register()</code></a> to register an
 extension point, and <a class="link" href="gio-Extension-Points.html#g-io-extension-point-set-required-type" title="g_io_extension_point_set_required_type ()"><code class="function">g_io_extension_point_set_required_type()</code></a> to
 set a required type.
 </p>
 <p>
 A module can implement an extension point by specifying the <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/gobject/gobject-Type-Information.html#GType"><span class="type">GType</span></a>
 that implements the functionality. Additionally, each implementation
 of an extension point has a name, and a priority. Use
 <a class="link" href="gio-Extension-Points.html#g-io-extension-point-implement" title="g_io_extension_point_implement ()"><code class="function">g_io_extension_point_implement()</code></a> to implement an extension point.

  It is up to the code that registered the extension point how
  it uses the implementations that have been associated with it.
  Depending on the use case, it may use all implementations, or
  only the one with the highest priority, or pick a specific
  one by name.
