ld.so.1: dlopen: fatal: foo: can't find symbol

[Christopher Lintz]

I would greatly appreciate any help that will get me past this problem.  I have tried Libtool and gcc directly on Solaris 2.6 to try and build a shared library that can be called by dlopen()...  This is the exact error I get:   ld.so.1: dlopen: fatal: foo: can't find symbol   Here is the exact command I use to build the shared object and the main program that does the dlopen():   libtool gcc -g -O -c foo.cpp libtool gcc -module -g -O -o foo.lo -rpath /home/cjl/libs gcc -g -o -c main.cpp gcc -o main main.o -ldl   **********Here is my exact main.cpp************ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <dlfcn.h>   int main() {        void *handle;    int (*fptr)();    char* error;      handle = dlopen("/home/cjl/.libs/foo.so.0", RTLD_LAZY );    if(!handle)    {       fputs( dlerror(), stderr);       exit( -1 );    }      if ((fptr = (int (*) () )dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT, "foo")) != NULL)         (*fptr)();    else    if( (error = dlerror()) != NULL)    {       fputs(error, stderr);       exit(-1);    }    dlclose(handle); } ********************************   **************Here is my exact foo.cpp************** #include "GCC001.h"   int foo() {   return 0; } ************************************************************   I have tried the libtool on two different machines (1 with more recent Solaris patches).  I even tried the -export-dymanic linked with the main.cpp.  Why would I be unable to find the symbol associated with foo after all of this??   Thanks for your help....   chris
