One more time, in case you missed it. If I don't get an answer this
time, I'll stop bugging you. I am working on getting the tcl code to
dynamically load modules, and to do that I'm trying to understand the
dlopen/dlsym calls. I wrote a very simple program to test it, which just
takes a file from the command line and dloads it. To use a file I knew
was in correct format, I used one from libc, but I always get this kind
of error:
./dltests /usr/obj/lib/libc/rmdir.so
testing file /usr/obj/lib/libc/rmdir.so ... dlopen call returned pointer
value 0
dlerror call returns mmap failed for "/usr/obj/lib/libc/rmdir.so" :
Invalid argument
OK, below is the code I wrote to test it. Anyone got any idea why it's
failing?
Thanks.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dlfcn.h>
void main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
int err_ret;
void *pntr;
if( argc != 2 )
{
printf("%s: incorrect number of parameters.\n",argv[0]);
printf("\tInvoke as: %s <object file to open>\n",argv[0]);
exit(0);
}
printf("testing file %s ... ", argv[1]);
pntr = dlopen( argv[1], 1 );
printf("dlopen call returned pointer value %lx\n", pntr );
printf("dlerror call returns %s\n", dlerror() );
if( pntr )
{
err_ret = dlclose( pntr );
printf("since open was successful, dlclose returns %d\n",
err_ret );
printf("and subsequent dlerror call returns %s\n",dlerror());
}
exit(0);
}
