/**
   @file
   C header for the LV2 URI Map extension <http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/uri-map>.

   This extension defines a simple mechanism for plugins to map URIs to
   integers, usually for performance reasons (e.g. processing events typed by
   URIs in real time). The expected use case is for plugins to map URIs to
   integers for things they 'understand' at instantiation time, and store those
   values for use in the audio thread without doing any string comparison.
   This allows the extensibility of RDF with the performance of integers (or
   centrally defined enumerations).

	/**
	   Get the numeric ID of a URI from the host.

	   @param callback_data Must be the callback_data member of this struct.
	   @param map The 'context' of this URI. Certain extensions may define a
	   URI that must be passed here with certain restrictions on the return
	   value (e.g. limited range). This value may be NULL if the plugin needs
	   an ID for a URI in general. Extensions SHOULD NOT define a context
	   unless there is a specific need to do so, e.g. to restrict the range of
	   the returned value.
	   @param uri The URI to be mapped to an integer ID.

	   This function is referentially transparent; any number of calls with the
	   same arguments is guaranteed to return the same value over the life of a
	   plugin instance (though the same URI may return different values with a
	   different map parameter). However, this function is not necessarily very
	   fast: plugins SHOULD cache any IDs they might need in performance
	   critical situations.

	   The return value 0 is reserved and indicates that an ID for that URI
	   could not be created for whatever reason. Extensions MAY define more
	   precisely what this means in a certain context, but in general plugins
	   SHOULD handle this situation as gracefully as possible. However, hosts
	   SHOULD NOT return 0 from this function in non-exceptional circumstances
	   (e.g. the URI map SHOULD be dynamic). Hosts that statically support only
	   a fixed set of URIs should not expect plugins to function correctly.
