Keywords: SunOS Message-ID: <4903@brazos.Rice.edu> Date: 10 Feb 90 17:48:20 GMT Sender: root@rice.edu Organization: Sun-Spots Lines: 16 Approved: Sun-Spots@rice.edu X-Sun-Spots-Digest: Volume 9, Issue 41, message 3 I am looking for more information about shared and dynamically linked libraries. A cursory examination of the manuals has revealed little information about these two new Sun/OS features. If anyone knows where more information about these two features can be found, please send me e-mail about it. In particular, I am interested in using dynamically linked libraries to load object code compiled "on the fly" into an already-running program, and using shared libraries to minimize virtual memory usage by a set of processes which call common library object modules. I will sumarize the responses I receive on comp.sys.sun and alt.sys.sun. Thanks, David R. Kohr M.I.T.
