Hi, FreeBSD yeti.mininet 6.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE #1: Mon Aug 28 22:24:48 CEST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/YETI i386
I'm trying to do the following: libdbi (http://libdbi.sourceforge.net) is a database abstraction layer which is linked as a shared object into applications. The libdbi library uses dlopen() to load database drivers which in turn are linked against database client libraries. Now I want to access functions defined in the database client library from within the libdbi library. In brief, I thought this is going to work like this: dlhandle = dlopen("path", RTLD_NOW); ... function_pointer = dlsym(dlhandle, "function_name"); dlhandle is not NULL and does not crash the app when passed to dlclose(), so I assume the handle is valid. Accessing the functions does work on most systems (Linux, OSX, Cygwin, to name a few), but I get "Undefined symbol" errors on FreeBSD. Interestingly, the following does work: function_pointer = dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, "function_name"); Why is that? Or rather: what am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
