Hello,

	in a dll, I'm calling a 

	extern "C" {
		void * init();
	}

	where it is define as follow

	void * init() {
		return (new TObject());
  	}

	it's doing a segment fault,
	does the new pointer is automatically deleted?
	
	I was thinking not to use the dlclose in the main program,
	but it doesn't work either.

	Any idea how to return a pointer from a DLL to a main program?

Thanks in advance,
Lucien.
