<p>
Installs a new procedure with the PDB (procedural database).
</p>
<p>
Call this function from within your plug-in's <code class="function">query()</code> function for
each procedure your plug-in implements.
</p>
<p>
The <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> parameter is mandatory and should be unique, or it will
overwrite an already existing procedure (overwrite procedures only
if you know what you're doing).
</p>
<p>
The <em class="parameter"><code>blurb</code></em>, <em class="parameter"><code>help</code></em>, <em class="parameter"><code>author</code></em>, <em class="parameter"><code>copyright</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>date</code></em> parameters are
optional but then you shouldn't write procedures without proper
documentation, should you.
</p>
<p>
<em class="parameter"><code>menu_label</code></em> defines the label that should be used for the
procedure's menu entry. The position where to register in the menu
hierarchy is chosen using <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimpplugin.html#gimp-plugin-menu-register" title="gimp_plugin_menu_register ()"><code class="function">gimp_plugin_menu_register()</code></a>. This
function also still accepts the old (pre-2.2) way of registering a
menu entry and takes a string in the form
"&lt;Domain&gt;/Path/To/My/Menu"
(e.g. "&lt;Image&gt;/Filters/Render/Useless").
</p>
<p>
It is possible to register a procedure only for keyboard-shortcut
activation by passing a <em class="parameter"><code>menu_label</code></em> to <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-install-procedure" title="gimp_install_procedure ()"><code class="function">gimp_install_procedure()</code></a> but
not registering any menu path with <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimpplugin.html#gimp-plugin-menu-register" title="gimp_plugin_menu_register ()"><code class="function">gimp_plugin_menu_register()</code></a>. In
this case, the given <em class="parameter"><code>menu_label</code></em> will only be used as the
procedure's user-visible name in the keyboard shortcut editor.
</p>
<p>
<em class="parameter"><code>image_types</code></em> is a comma separated list of image types, or actually
drawable types, that this procedure can deal with. Wildcards are
possible here, so you could say "RGB*" instead of "RGB, RGBA" or
"*" for all image types. If the procedure doesn't need an image to
run, use the empty string.
</p>
<p>
<em class="parameter"><code>type</code></em> must be one of <span class="type">GIMP_PLUGIN</span> or <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span>. Note that
temporary procedures must be installed using
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-install-temp-proc" title="gimp_install_temp_proc ()"><code class="function">gimp_install_temp_proc()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
NOTE: Unlike the GIMP 1.2 API, <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span> no longer means
that the procedure's menu prefix is &lt;Toolbox&gt;, but that
it will install temporary procedures. Therefore, the GIMP core
will wait until the <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span> procedure has called
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-ack" title="gimp_extension_ack ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_ack()</code></a>, which means that the procedure has done
its initialization, installed its temporary procedures and is
ready to run.
</p>
<p>
<span class="emphasis"><em>Not calling <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-ack" title="gimp_extension_ack ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_ack()</code></a> from a <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span>
procedure will cause the GIMP core to lock up.</em></span>
</p>
<p>
Additionally, a <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span> procedure with no parameters
(<em class="parameter"><code>n_params</code></em> == 0 and <em class="parameter"><code>params</code></em> == <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><span class="type">NULL</span></a>) is an "automatic" extension
that will be automatically started on each GIMP startup.

Installs a new temporary procedure with the PDB (procedural database).
</p>
<p>
A temporary procedure is a procedure which is only available while
one of your plug-in's "real" procedures is running.
</p>
<p>
See <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-install-procedure" title="gimp_install_procedure ()"><code class="function">gimp_install_procedure()</code></a> for most details.
</p>
<p>
<em class="parameter"><code>type</code></em> <span class="emphasis"><em>must</em></span> be <span class="type">GIMP_TEMPORARY</span> or the function
will fail.
</p>
<p>
<em class="parameter"><code>run_proc</code></em> is the function which will be called to execute the
procedure.
</p>
<p>
NOTE: Normally, plug-in communication is triggered by the plug-in
and the GIMP core only responds to the plug-in's requests. You must
explicitly enable receiving of temporary procedure run requests
using either <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-enable" title="gimp_extension_enable ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_enable()</code></a> or
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-process" title="gimp_extension_process ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_process()</code></a>. See this functions' documentation for

Normally, a plug-in is not called by GIMP except for the call to
the procedure it implements. All subsequent communication is
triggered by the plug-in and all messages sent from GIMP to the
plug-in are just answers to requests the plug-in made.
</p>
<p>
If the plug-in however registered temporary procedures using
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-install-temp-proc" title="gimp_install_temp_proc ()"><code class="function">gimp_install_temp_proc()</code></a>, it needs to be able to receive requests
to execute them. Usually this will be done by running
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-process" title="gimp_extension_process ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_process()</code></a> in an endless loop.
</p>
<p>
If the plug-in cannot use <a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-process" title="gimp_extension_process ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_process()</code></a>, i.e. if it has
a GUI and is hanging around in a <a href="/usr/share/gtk-doc/html/glib/glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#GMainLoop"><span class="type">GMainLoop</span></a>, it must call
<a class="link" href="libgimp-gimp.html#gimp-extension-enable" title="gimp_extension_enable ()"><code class="function">gimp_extension_enable()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
Note that the plug-in does not need to be a <span class="type">GIMP_EXTENSION</span> to
register temporary procedures.
