DLL Export Functions

The DLL export functions define how a custom internal adapter controls its life cycle and communicates with the ESP Server. These functions must be implemented and exported in the DLL.

Custom adapter implementation is bundled in a separate DLL. When building a custom internal adapter, an adapter developer must implement the DLL Export functions found in the DLL.

Adapter Setup Functions
The ESP Server uses information management functions to complete the adapter implementation process.
Adapter Life Cycle Functions
All adapters follow a set of adapter life cycle events.
Miscellaneous Functions
