I add the RTLD_GLOBAL flag when I call C's dlopen() on Linux. I can do this for the next release. If you can't wait, you can read the Linux man page for dlopen() and try to wrap the dlopen() function yourself. You should call it as: lib = dlopen(dll_name, RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL); RTLD_GLOBAL makes symbols from one .so available to subsequently-loaded .so's. 2. You would have to manually pre-open any .so's that the main .so requires that aren't opened automatically. Regards, Rob Craig Rapid Deployment Software http://www.RapidEuphoria.com
