/**
 * GIOExtensionPoint provides a mechanism for modules to extend the
 * functionality of the library or application that loaded it in an
 * organized fashion.
 *
 * 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 g_io_extension_point_register() to register an
 * extension point, and g_io_extension_point_set_required_type() to
 * set a required type.
 *
 * A module can implement an extension point by specifying the GType
 * that implements the functionality. Additionally, each implementation
 * of an extension point has a name, and a priority. Use
 * g_io_extension_point_implement() to implement an extension point.
 *
 * $(DDOC_COMMENT example)
 *
 * $(DDOC_COMMENT example)
 *
 *  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.
 *
 *  To avoid opening all modules just to find out what extension
 *  points they implement, GIO makes use of a caching mechanism,
 *  see gio-querymodules.
 *  You are expected to run this command after installing a
 *  GIO module.
 *
 *  The GIO_EXTRA_MODULES environment variable can be
 *  used to specify additional directories to automatically load modules
 *  from. This environment variable has the same syntax as the
 *  PATH. If two modules have the same base name in different
 *  directories, then the latter one will be ignored. If additional
 *  directories are specified GIO will load modules from the built-in
 *  directory last.
