I tried that and resolved all entry points. It is neither dlopen() nor
dlsym() that fail, it is when I try using that entry point that it fails.
code snippet:
if ((phandle = dlopen(filename, RTLD_LAZY)) == NULL) {
/* failed to load input plug */
event_printf(EVENT_LOG, 0, "dlopen: %s.", dlerror());
return(-1);
}
if ((gpi = dlsym(phandle, "get_iplugin_info")) != NULL) {
/* initialise as an input plugin */
fails here----> ip = (InputPlugin *) gpi();
ip->handle = phandle;
ip->filename = (char *)strdup(filename);
if (ip->init) ip->init();
event_printf(EVENT_LOG, 0,
"pluginterface_load: Initialised %s", ip->description);
ipl_add(ip);
return 1;
}
the backtrace shows that calling get_iplugin_info() leads to a
g_strdup_printf() that later fails in vfprintf() from libc_r.so.4
so it fails in a call to glib. You'll tell me there is a bug in the
plugin, but I know there is not, this plugin (shared lib) works perfectly
with xmms.
The code to load and init the plugin was lifted from xmms actually.
Which leads me to thinking there is a problem between differing libs, or
something. Any other ideas ?
