Plugin: process

The process plugin uses the pluginprocess library in order to execute other plugins inside an own process. This is useful for runtimes or libraries that cannot be reinitialized in the same process after they have been used. It is also useful for plugins which cause memory leaks to be isolated in an own process.

Mount this plugin and specify the plugin configuration parameter plugin to a plugin that exists on the system. The proxied plugin will then be executed in a separate process and this plugin handles the communication between the processes.

The pluginprocess library, which is only available on POSIX environments currently.
