=head1 DESCRIPTION
-B<OSSP val> is a flexible name to value mapping library for C variables.
-It allows one to access C variables through name strings, although
-the C language does neither provide such a dedicated facility nor an
-evaluation construct (which could be used to implement such a facility
-easily).
-
-In general, this is used for accessing C variables without having to
-know the actual symbol/address/reference. The typical use cases are
-in combination with flexible configuration parsing and supporting
-loosly-coupled DSO-based module architectures.
