carb::loadFrameworkConfiguration

Defined in carb/StartupUtils.h

inline void carb::loadFrameworkConfiguration(const StartupFrameworkDesc &params)

Loads the framework configuration based on a slew of input parameters.

First see carb::StartupFrameworkDesc for an idea of the type of data this function accepts.

At a high-level this function:

  • Determines application path from CLI args and env vars (see carb::extras::getAppPathAndName()).

  • Sets application path as filesystem root

  • Loads plugins for settings: carb.settings.plugin, carb.dictionary.plugin, carb.tokens.plugins and any serializer plugin.

  • Searches for config file, loads it and applies CLI args overrides.

Rather than this function, consider using OMNI_CORE_INIT(), which handles both starting and shutting down the framework for you in your application.
