you are welcome - I can quickly test and add all changes to git.

Is it good style separate extern definition and EXPORT_SYMBOL?

I have three choices?
1. keep extern + EXPORT_SYMBOL below - current style
2. move only extern to header file
3. move extern and EXPORT_SYMBOL to header.

What is preferable way?

Thanks,
Michal
