I'm having troubles with undumping my perl program. I'm running
on a Sun3 so (it seems) compatibility problems shouldn't exist.
Most of the code on this platform for both perl and undump seems
pretty solid. (BTW perl-3.0@37 and undump from the TeX82 dist.)
My program takes no arguments but reads in an init file which tells
it where to find everthing it needs, otherwise it is 'self-contained'.
I dump core with the perl command 'dump LABEL' and the LABEL: is just
before reading in the init file and the first true execution commands,
so all should be well there.
I am also able to make the new a.out executable with undump, i.e.:
undump newprog perl core
The problem occurs when trying to run the new executable. I get the
error:
ld.so: __DYNAMIC version 0 not supported
I've even tried recompiling perl with -DDEBUGGING in case it might
be needed when undumping, but to no avail.
I'm not a real hacker, so it probably is something very simple. I just
don't know if it is perl, undump, or something else. (my program works
fine normally, I just want it to be a standalone executable for
efficiency sake - it initializes quite a bit of stuff at startup).
HELP!
If anyone has the answer(s), *please* speak up! (Don't wait for
someone 'else' to answer this if you know what might be going wrong.
Thanks.
