I am trying to build a DLL which has function calls which must be resolved into existing win32 DLL's. Following the instructions for building a relocatable dll, i get an output but each of the three ld steps reports all the undefined references for the functions which are in the existing win32 dll's. i had to add the --noinhibit-exec option to ld so that it wouldn't delete the output dll due to the errors. when i build this project on solaris, the linker doesn't complain about the undefined references, and they are resolved to appropriate existing ..so files at runtime. is there some option i need to give ld so it knows i want to resolve the references at runtime to the existing dll's? or am i clueless? thanks! -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Dan Goldwater dgold AT brown DOT edu http://fatmac.ee.cornell.edu/~goldwada --------------------------------------------------------------------- - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
