From: andi@uni-paderborn.de (Andreas Sorgatz) Subject: Help: C-function `uselib', gcc -fPIC Date: 17 May 1993 20:28:49 GMT
Hi,
I need some help with linux programing.
I want to port a program running on SunOS 4.x (sparc) and AIX 3.x
(IBM/RS6000) to linux. What I need is the possibility to create
code objects (shared libraries ?), to be load into a main program
at runtime (!).
(1) I found the function `uselib' in unistd.h, but had no access
in loading any library.
(2) I tried to use the gcc-option -fPIC to create an object file
with position-independent code, but only foolish errors were
given out.
(3) Finally, I haven't found any information, how to create (sha-
red) libraries which can be used with function `uselib'.
Is there anybody who can help me, perhaps with an example ?
If this is a RTFM, please tell me which FM.
Thanks in advance ...
andi
