Hi Netlanders,
I have a question about dynamic loading in Ultrix. ! I have tried to
load dynamically functions which are in libc.a, such as gethostent !
The loader then complains about:
>ld:
/lib/libc.a(gethostent.o): object not compiled with -G 0 will not work linking with -A
Does anybody know if DEC fixed this in any of the 4.x release of
Ultrix. Or in other words: are there versions of libc.a which can be
used with dynamic loading or even tools which covert libc.a to a
version which can be use with dynamic loading.
Eugene

I run Ultrix 4.0 on my DECstation, and /usr/lib contains libc_G0.a and libm_G0.a. From the names, I guess that this is what you need.

Try using libc_G0.a instead. It is a -G 0 version of libc. g. -- George Hartzell (303) 492-4535 MCD Biology, University of Colorado-Boulder, Boulder, CO 80309 hartzell@Boulder.Colorado.EDU ..!ncar!boulder!hartzell
