Hey,
A guy mentioned that problem: on mac os x, a "standard" shared lib has
suffix name .dylib:
lib_LTLIBRARIES = libfoo.la --> libfoo.dylib
but with a "module":
pkg_LTLIBRARIES = bar.la
bar_la_LDFLAGS = -module -avoid-version
then the name is bar.so and not bar.dylib
Is it a known behavior ? If so, is it a bug ?
Yes, it is known, no, it is not a bug.
linux windows mac
lib so dll dylib
module so dll so
mac is the only system where the module has a different name than a lib.
Why ? That complicates things for nothing (we use shrext_cmds variable in
autoconf as suffix of files that are dlopened).
