dynamic linking: want to play with fire

2002-01-26 Thread E.B. Dreger
Greetings, I'm currently STFWing, but would appreciate any pointers that anyone might have. I wish to manually perform dynamic linking. I'd like to load an executable, .so, or .o, and _manually_ handle the symbol fixups. I looked at dlfcn.c, but found next to nothing there. Next stop: kernel

Force dynamic linking?

Hello! Is there any way to force the creation of dynamically linked executables using the ELF linker (like 'ld -Bforcedynamic' in the a.out version)? I have to link against static libs, but I want to use dlopen() etc. Thank you for your help! Bye, nmh. -- Nils M Holm [EMAIL
