Pluga is a simple C++ plugin system that you can drop into your own projects. It currently supports:

* Loading cross-platform plugins and shared libraries

* Simple and elegant API for defining plugins

* Strict API versioning for ABI safety

For more information take a look at [this blog post](http://sourcey.com/building-a-simple-cpp-cross-platform-plugin-system) which talks about the concepts and mothodology behind Pluga.
