----------------------------------

             Summary: shared library loading depends on environment variable 
updates
                 Key: MESOS-3725
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-3725
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: modules, stout
            Reporter: James Peach


{{ModuleTest::SetUpTestCase()}} and the various {{libraries::paths()}} is stout 
assume that updating {{LD_LIBRARY_PATH}} or {{DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH}} is sufficient 
to alter the search path used by dlopen(3). It is not; those environment 
variables are only bound at program load.

My preference is to fix this by requiring the clients of {{DynamicLibrary}} to 
always pass in an absolute path and to remove all mention of these environment 
variables.

FWIW, the tests in {{ModuleTest::SetUpTestCase()}} only work because the 
libtool wrapper script sets up the library path to the expected value prior to 
running the tests.
