I'm, trying to find implementations of unix that support a programmatic interface to the dynamic linker. The SunOS has this facility. It allows a programmer to dynamically load shared objects and access symbols within the objects. It takes care of fixup vectors, non-pic code, etc. The SunOS calls are: dlopen, dlsym, dlerror and dlclose. If you are aware of other OS' that supply this kind of funcationality please repond via e-mail. I will post a summary of all the responses. Thanks in advance, -- Kevin P.
