I'm guessing by the lack of replies that this can't be done.
What I would like to do: My locations module can use one or more mapping modules, to display different types of maps. I would like to be able to choose, from the locations module control panel, which map module to use. The map modules are effectively libraries that can be installed and uninstalled.
What I would like to see is:
1. Modules to be able to save (arbitrary) metadata about their operation. and
2. modules to be able to be informed when other modules are either installed or uninstalled.
This would increase the ways the modules could work together, and therefore, increase the ways that module writers could collaborate.
just thought of another use... For example, an administrator could choose which rich text editor to use, out of many installed ones. Modules could basically be components. Like dlls, or shared libraries.
This would be a great addition, and i think it would contribute to the growth of Xoops.
