The fact that you can have "reader plugins" is an old concept, since there were more API-s back in time, out of which CT-API is old and deprecated and the same starts to apply to OpenCT. So yes, there's a code-level thing to write plugins but unless justified (and unless it really is a very special "interface") it should not be encouraged. Having an external plugin for PC/SC would not be useful from OpenSC point of view nor would it make sense to 100% duplicate reader-pcsc.c.

Yes, I understand and that's why I asked what kind of changes would it need to use the existing codebase. This also depends on how the minidriver makes use of libopensc. There have been other incarnations of basecsp plugins and the same issue has been (tried to) addressed before. So I believe that with little discussion on the list we can find a way to integrate it in libopensc core. > So I make a dll with it's own pcsc drivers, I can send a patch to show how > it's working... I would prefer to use the codebase present in reader-pcsc.c. But please, do sent the patch as well, I might not know what I'm talking about.
