Hi, I have a main library main.so which in turn dlopens other libraries sub1.so sub2.so located in some directories.
How to I compile main.so so that when someone invokes the library (by calling dlopen) the main.so will look for the sub-libraries in its configuration directories -- without implementing my own .so search algorithm? This should work on Linux. To be more concrete: I want to dlopen the jdk1.4 libjvm.so. The problem is that libjvm.so in turn dlopens other libraries within a well-known directory, but this directory is not part of the global LD_LIBRARY_PATH. So one solution would be to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH before I invoke dlopen (this is not possible on Linux) or to hard-code the configuration into a shared library (probably with the -rpath). But this also does not seem to work on Linux. Calling execve() and setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH there is not a solution because I am within an environment where I cannot call exec.
