The title almost says it all. For numerical and statistical computing,
the ability to wire user C code into a running interpreter is the best
thing since electricity. The functionality on UNIX system is in
libdl.* and (usually) works by linking up a shared
position-independent library and accessing it through dlopen(),
dlsym(), etc. One would expect that similar functionality is possible
through DLL's in win32, but has anyone actually tried this?
