I'm following a simple example <https://www.thegoldfish.org/2019/04/using-c-libraries-from-go/> of using cgo to call a C library function from go. Executing the binary gives
error while loading shared libraries: libperson.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or director Here's the relevant part from the main.go file: /* #cgo LDFLAGS: -L. -lperson #include "person.h" */ import "C" The file libperson.so is right in the same directory with main.go and person.h. I've also created a soft link libperson.so.0 -> libperson.so but that doesn't have any effect. I've tried this with go run and by go build to create a binary but both give the same error. Does cgo recognize the LDFLAGS: -L. symbol at all? What do I need to do to get a go binary to call a C function in a .so? I really don't want to put my .so in the /usr/lib directory just to get a static linked binary for something like this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
