Hi All, I was trying to understand why LD_PRELOAD does not work for octave, that have 3 dlls specified on LD_PRELOAD and I discovered that it seems to handle only 1 dll and not more. If I specify 2 or more dlls, LD_PRELOAD stop to work
$uname -a CYGWIN_NT-5.1 ITQMOZCAS2NB007 1.7.0(0.210/5/3) 2009-05-15 17:15 i686 Cygwin as test case I used the fltk-demos sudoku, and chosen 2 of the dll's $ cygcheck sudoku [snip] C:\cygwin2\bin\cygjpeg-62.dll C:\cygwin2\bin\cygpng12.dll [snip] copied them in a tmp directory mkdir /tmp/prova cp cygjpeg-62.dll cygpng12.dll /tmp/prova the outcome is: $ LD_PRELOAD="/tmp/prova/cygjpeg-62.dll /tmp/prova/cygpng12.dll" sudoku 3 [main] bash 12924 C:\cygwin2\bin\bash.exe: *** fatal error - error while loading shared libraries: /tmp/prova/cygjpeg-62.dll /tmp/prova/cygpng12.dll: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Hangup while if I specify only 1 dll $ LD_PRELOAD="/tmp/prova/cygjpeg-62.dll" sudoku it works. Is it a bug, feature or a BLODA issue ?
