Hi, All:

This method is wrong, because the bug1.so still depends on
bug1-main.so, so if I delete the bug1-main.so it will do nothing!

The correct method should be:

bug1-main.c ==> __declspec(dllexport) int func1()
gcc -c bug1-main.c
dlltool.exe --export-all --output-def bug1-main.def bug1-main.o
gcc -o bug1-main bug1-main.c -ldl
dlltool.exe --dllname bug1-main.exe --def bug1-main.def --output-lib
libbug1-main.dll.a
gcc -shared -o bug1.so bug1.c -L. -lbug1-main // or gcc -shared -o
bug1.so bug1.c libbug1-main.dll.a

My question is why the --export-dynamic doesn't work ?
gcc -Wl,--export-dynamic -o bug1-main bug1-main.c -ldl

Regards,
Andy
