Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Chris Bagwell (cbagwell) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Do not export lsx_ symbols in libsox Initial Comment: If you look at the public symbols in libsox, you'll see a lot of symbols that we do not advertise as part of the SoX API. They have all been prefixed with lsx_ to help distinguish them. It would be nice to not export those as public symbols. Most obvious option is to make use of -retain-symbols-file where it is supported. I think I've also seen attempts to do this at compile time by png.h (not sure if it works or worth the trouble it looks like it causes). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Ulrich Klauer (uklauer) Date: 2013-03-08 04:01 Message: This can, in principle, be easily done via libtool's -export-symbols-regex option ("-export-symbols-regex '^sox_'"). However, SoX-the-application uses several internal functions (see "nm -Du `which sox` | grep lsx_"), and the modules built via --with-whatever=dyn some more. Therefore, the regex to use is more like: "^(sox_.*|lsx_(check_read_params|(close|open)_dllibrary|(debug(_more|_most)?|fail|report|warn)_impl|eof|fail_errno|filelength|find_(enum_(text|value)|file_extension)|getopt(_init)?|lpc10_(create_(de|en)coder_state|(de|en)code)|raw(read|write)|read(_b_buf|buf|chars)|realloc|rewind|seeki|sigfigs3p?|strcasecmp|tell |unreadb|write(b|_b_buf|buf|s)))$" Still, this hides about 90% of the private symbols, so I think I will actually add this, as a step in the right direction. To deal with the rest, we'd need to create a self-contained helper library that can be linked (statically) into the modules, and into SoX-the-application. But it is probably difficult to make it self-contained, as those functions in turn call more internal functions, etc. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=360706&aid=2214694&group_id=10706 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Symantec Endpoint Protection 12 positioned as A LEADER in The Forrester Wave(TM): Endpoint Security, Q1 2013 and "remains a good choice" in the endpoint security space.
