RTLD_DEFAULT is "((void *) 0)" on Linux, so this would be hard to
distinguish from NULL. -1 on the other hand is RTLD_NEXT, so perhaps we
should use another invalid pointer value to show failure. Or perhaps the
API should look like
sal_Bool CALL osl_getModuleHandle(rtl_uString *strModuleName, oslModule*
pResult );
where the return value details success/failure and the result is
returned via the second parameter.
Just my 2 cents, pl
