Use of the PDF Export API requires the following steps:
kvpdf
shared library.
KVPDFGetInterface
function.
KVPDFGetInterface
function to obtain function pointers for the library methods.
fpInit()
function pointer to initialize KeyView.
fpShutdown()
to close down KeyView.
kvpdf
library.
The code you use to load the library at the start and free the library at the end depends on your operating system. See Use the kvpdf library on Windows and Use the kvpdf library on Linux
After you have obtained the function pointer for the KVPDFGetInterface
function, you can use it to get pointers to the other functions. These include fpInit()
, which you must use to initialize KeyView before any other call, and fpShutdown()
which must be the last call you make, to shutdown KeyView and free its resources. See Export a File to PDF and Obtain File Format Information.
The following examples describe how to load the kvpdf
library and obtain the KVPDFGetInterface
function pointer (fpGetInterface()
in the example code).
In the following example, pszPathOfkvpdfdll
is the path to the kvpdf
dynamic library, for example C:\MicroFocus\KeyviewExportSDK-12.3.0\WINDOWS_X86_64\bin\kvpdf.dll
.
#include "kvpdf.h" #include <windows.h> #include <stdio.h> void usePDFExport(const char* const pszPathOfkvpdfdll) { HMODULE hMODULE = LoadLibraryA(pszPathOfkvpdfdll); if (hMODULE) { KVPDF_GET_INTERFACE fpGetInterface = (KVPDF_GET_INTERFACE) GetProcAddress( hMODULE, "KVPDFGetInterface" ); if (fpGetInterface) { KVPDFInterface sInterface = {0}; KVStructInit(&sInterface); if(fpGetInterface(&sInterface)) { // Code using PDF Export } } FreeLibrary(hMODULE); } }
In the following example, pszPathOfkvpdfso
is the path to the kvpdf
dynamic library, for example /opt/MicroFocus/KeyviewExportSDK-12.3.0/LINUX_X86_64_LIBC6/bin/kvpdf.so
.
#include "kvpdf.h" #include <dlfcn.h> void usePDFExport(const char* const pszPathOfkvpdfso) { void *libHandle = dlopen(pszPathOfkvpdfso, RTLD_LAZY); if (libHandle) { KVPDF_GET_INTERFACE fpGetInterface = dlsym(libHandle, "KVPDFGetInterface"); if (fpGetInterface) { KVPDFInterface sInterface = {0}; KVStructInit(&sInterface); if(fpGetInterface(&sInterface)) { // Code using PDF Export } } dlclose(libHandle); } }
