21 Definition of Sunos dynamic Linking functions
22 =============================================
23 In order to make this implementation easier to understand here is a
24 quick definition of the SunOS Dynamic Linking functions which are
25 used here.
26
27 dlopen
28 ------
29 void *
30 dlopen(path, mode)
31 char * path;
32 int mode;
33
34 This function takes the name of a dynamic object file and returns
35 a descriptor which can be used by dlsym later. It returns NULL on
36 error.
37
38 The mode parameter must be set to 1 for Solaris 1 and to
8e07c86e 39 RTLD_LAZY (==2) on Solaris 2.

42 dlclose
43 -------
44 int
45 dlclose(handle)
46 void * handle;
47
48 This function takes the handle returned by a previous invocation of
49 dlopen and closes the associated dynamic object file. It returns zero
50 on success, and non-zero on failure.
51
52

LW
53 dlsym
54 ------
55 void *
56 dlsym(handle, symbol)
57 void * handle;
58 char * symbol;
59
60 Takes the handle returned from dlopen and the name of a symbol to
61 get the address of. If the symbol was found a pointer is
62 returned. It returns NULL on error. If DL_PREPEND_UNDERSCORE is
63 defined an underscore will be added to the start of symbol. This
64 is required on some platforms (freebsd).
65
66 dlerror
67 ------
68 char * dlerror()
69
70 Returns a null-terminated string which describes the last error
71 that occurred with either dlopen or dlsym. After each call to
72 dlerror the error message will be reset to a null pointer. The
abb9e9dc 73 SaveError function is used to save the error as soon as it happens.

75
76 Return Types
77 ============
78 In this implementation the two functions, dl_load_file &
79 dl_find_symbol, return void *. This is because the underlying SunOS
80 dynamic linker calls also return void *. This is not necessarily
81 the case for all architectures. For example, some implementation
82 will want to return a char * for dl_load_file.
83
84 If void * is not appropriate for your architecture, you will have to
85 change the void * to whatever you require. If you are not certain of
86 how Perl handles C data types, I suggest you start by consulting
87 Dean Roerich's Perl 5 API document. Also, have a look in the typemap
88 file (in the ext directory) for a fairly comprehensive list of types
89 that are already supported. If you are completely stuck, I suggest you
13934ef4 90 post a message to perl5-porters, comp.lang.perl.misc or if you are really
a0d0e21e
LW
91 desperate to me.
92
93 Remember when you are making any changes that the return value from
94 dl_load_file is used as a parameter in the dl_find_symbol
95 function. Also the return value from find_symbol is used as a parameter
96 to install_xsub.
97
98
99 Dealing with Error Messages
100 ============================
101 In order to make the handling of dynamic linking errors as generic as
102 possible you should store any error messages associated with your
103 implementation with the StoreError function.
104
105 In the case of SunOS the function dlerror returns the error message
106 associated with the last dynamic link error. As the SunOS dynamic
107 linker functions dlopen & dlsym both return NULL on error every call
108 to a SunOS dynamic link routine is coded like this
109
110 RETVAL = dlopen(filename, 1) ;
111 if (RETVAL == NULL)
112 SaveError("%s",dlerror()) ;
113
114 Note that SaveError() takes a printf format string. Use a "%s" as
42eb1a87 115 the first parameter if the error may contain any % characters.
