Actually playing with Ashley´s program shown that RTLD_NOW does error out in the exact same way. So could the problem be that totalview dlopen´s the plugin with RTLD_NOW passed into dlopen. I would have thought if this was the case we would have seen this problem sooner.

Anyway, I blame the compiler on this one. As we need the definition of the ompi_free_list_t structure we have to include the header file. We never use anything from this header file, especially not the ompi_free_list functions. However, as one of the functions in the header file make a reference to the ompi_free_list_grow function (defined in the .c file), the compiler include a reference to this in the library.

We are running it with 1.3.2, last I heard - haven't tried the current

that was on the trunk.

My problem is that the library opens but is expecting to find a symbol
in the application that isn't there, it sounds like terry problem is the
debugger isn't loading the so.

Sounds like we are missing at least a couple of header files.

My first thought for this would be to write a simple C program to
dlopen() the so and see if that works, both with RTLD_NOW and RTLD_LAZY
as I don't know which TotalView uses. Try something like the following.

#include <dlfcn.h>

int main (argc, argv)
    int argc;
    char *argv[];
{
 void *h;
 h = dlopen(argv[1],RTLD_NOW);
 printf("Result is %p\n",h);
 return 0;
}
