XS and Shared Libraries

[BUFFERNE,VINCENT (Non-HP-France,ex1)]

Hi,

I am building a wrapper between some Perl code and C library. I am using XS
for this.
I want to compile the wrapper as a Shared Lib that is dynamically loaded by
perl.
Today I compile a Shared Lib statically linked to the C library (I link with
the "C Lib".asl) in one big Shared Lib.
           
          Perl
            |(load .sl)
    Wrapper(including C Lib)

Now I want to be able to load the C library as Shared Lib:

          Perl
            |(load .sl)
         Wrapper
            |(load .sl)
          C Lib

"C Lib" is not a Perl library, so it cannot be loaded by Perl using
Dynaloader.
So I have two possibilities:
-either "Wrapper" loads dynamically "C Lib"
   => "Wrapper" includes only some XS code. Is it possible to include code
to load the "C Lib" within my XS code ? 
-either "Wrapper" is linked statically with "C Lib" (As you will do for an
executable)
   => Is it possible to link statically a Shared Lib with another one just
as you will do for an exectable ?

Does somebody has already face this case ? What do you advice ?

Thanks,

Vincent
