C user-defined parser API

The plug-in interface for a message parser consists of:
  1. A set of implementation functions that provide the functionality of the plug-in parser. These functions are invoked by the message broker. Most implementation functions are mandatory and, if not supplied by the developer, cause an exception at runtime.
  2. A set of utility functions, the purpose of which is to create resources in the message broker or to request a service of the broker. These utility functions can be invoked by a plug-in parser.

These functions are defined in the header file BipCpi.h.
