//! NIH-plug can handle floating point, integer, boolean, and enum parameters. Parameters are //! managed by creating a struct deriving the [`Params`][internals::Params] trait containing fields //! for those parmaeter types, and then returning a reference to that object from your //! [`Plugin::params()`][crate::prelude::Plugin::params()] method. See the `Params` trait for more //! information. use std::fmt::Display; // Parameter types mod boolean; pub mod enums; mod float; mod integer; pub mod internals; pub mod range; pub mod smoothing; pub use boolean::BoolParam; pub use enums::EnumParam; pub use float::FloatParam; pub use integer::IntParam; bitflags::bitflags! { /// Flags for controlling a parameter's behavior. #[repr(transparent)] #[derive(Default)] pub struct ParamFlags: u32 { /// When applied to a [`BoolParam`], this will cause the parameter to be linked to the /// host's bypass control.
