It helped (thank you) and I have fixed the problem by opening (i.e. dlopen) with mode RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL instead of just RTLD_LAZY. Did not need to modify any of the compile-time switches. (My executable does not export global symbols). Performance loss is totally not an issue here - this is all done at startup-initialisation. There is no RTTI done at all after that unless an exception is subsequently thrown. I did google by the way and didn't find the answer to my problem. Must have googled the wrong thing (came up with loads of hits when I tried the keywords but all the posts on the subject were over 2 years old and none of them specifically addressed this particular problem nor came up with the solution). Hopefully this particular thread will be useful for someone else who later has a similar problem. _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
