Hi, Not quite sure if I did smt wrong. I got a test prog like: #include <dlfcn.h> int main() { dlopen(0,0); } run gcc test.c -ldl gives me error /tmp/ccYA2OZ8.o: In function `main': dl.cSad.text+0x2c): warning: Using 'dlopen' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking /usr_opt/usr/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.0.3/../../../libdl.a(dlopen.o): In function `dlopen': : undefined reference to `__dlopen' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Is it a bug or i did smt wrong? cheers S.KIEU ____________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
