\begin{Description}\relax
This function allows us to query the set of routines
in a DLL that are registered with R to enhance
dynamic lookup, error handling when calling native routines,
and potentially security in the future.
This function provides a description of each of the
registered routines in the DLL for the different interfaces,
i.e. \code{\LinkA{.C}{.C}}, \code{\LinkA{.Call}{.Call}}, \code{\LinkA{.Fortran}{.Fortran}}
and \code{\LinkA{.External}{.External}}.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}
getDLLRegisteredRoutines(dll)
\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Arguments}
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{dll}] a character string or \code{DLLInfo} object (as returned by
\code{\LinkA{getLoadedDLLs}{getLoadedDLLs}}).

\end{ldescription}
\end{Arguments}
\begin{Details}\relax
This takes the registration information after it has been registered
and processed by the R internals. In other words, it uses the extended
information
\end{Details}
\begin{Value}
A list with four elements corresponding to the routines
registered for the .C, .Call, .Fortran and .External interfaces.
Each element is a list with as many elements as there were
routines registered for that interface.
Each element identifies a routine and is an object
of class \code{NativeSymbolInfo}.
An object of this class has the following fields:
\begin{ldescription}
\item[\code{name}] the registered name of the routine (not necessarily the
name in the C code).
\item[\code{address}] the memory address of the routine as resolved in the
loaded DLL. This may be \code{NULL} if the symbol has not yet been
resolved.
\item[\code{dll}] an object of class \code{DLLInfo} describing the DLL.
This is same for all elements returned.
\item[\code{numParameters}] the number of arguments the native routine is to
be called with. In the future, we will provide information about
the types of the parameters also.

\end{ldescription}
