Hi, I've already posted a related question on http://www.linuxquestions.org/ today, but it seems that nobody there is Libtool-expert so I've decided to crosspost here. I've put a detailed explanation of my problem here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/c-dynamically-loaded-libraries-and-automake-invalid-elf-library-error-626105/ By the way, the situation is the following: using Autotools and Libtool I created a source tree for a project composed of a main program and a set of libraries that must be loaded at runtime by the program (plugins). Before starting real coding, I decided to write down a test program, because I'm not accustomed with Autotools and I had always used the traditional hand-compiling and linking against .so libraries. Now, as explained thoroughly in the page linked above, I'm faced with a .la library that seems to be requested by my main program, but when I provide it, the program refuses it because it is a Libtool archive and not a ELF file. I'm close to getting insane, it's about 10 hours I'm trying to get out of this, and I read a huge number of docs/tutorials on the web without result. Should I use libltdl as suggested by the Libtool manual or is there a straighforward solution to my problem? I've put the whole source tree on the web http://digilander.libero.it/optikstorm/3DVisor-0.0.1.tar.bz2 (~250Kb), hoping that this helps. Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to help me. Roberto
