As I once understood it, programs are linked to a stub. When the dynamic shared libraries are loaded, the stub s filled in with the addresses of the real library entry points. There must be more to the story, because this obviously won't work for addresses of data. Perhaps it is worth going in to more detail. Or providing links to a more complete description. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
