- name
- String - The name of the AddOn to be queries. You can access Blizzard-provided AddOns through this mechanism.
Returns
- loaded, reason
- loaded
- Flag - Indicates if the AddOn was loaded, 1 if it is, nil if it is not.
- reason
- String - The reason why the AddOn cannot be loaded. This is nil if the addon was loaded, otherwise it contains a code indicating the reason. (Observed reason codes: "DISABLED")
Details
- Prior to the 1.8 patch, this could be used to load addons which were not on-demand if they were disabled at start up and then enabled during the play session. The 1.8 patch will restrict this to ONLY addons which are truly marked on demand in their .toc files (## LoadOnDemand: 1).
