-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If I build rev 0 of a library, link to it, then rebuild the library with interface 1, age 1, that should mean it is compatible with interface 0 or 1. It creates libfoo.so.0.1.0 so an app linked against interface 0 will find it. Now if I rebuild the app against this library, I would expect it to prefer interface 1 and there to be a libfoo.so.1.0.0 symlink it would request, but there isn't. Therefore, when I decide to drop support for the old interface 0 from the library by dropping the age to 0, the app no longer can find the library, which is now libfoo.so.1.0.0.
What am I missing here? How do you get the app to prefer the newer interface ( and thus, work when the old interface is dropped ) while allowing older apps to use the old interface for a while? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJSTDwMAAoJEJrBOlT6nu75RqgIAIiw/g03kXDUoHXreuT1Prwl DM2p/D7ffHm2Gb5AMZw38mL50MKkVxjk2C4R+uOHmdFxl0LYvM9Pt7rhuTQPoZGq jVEzwnzl7ltEfVYogj7lrvuG9Y5DjmQLrjcomUpXeSkBr/snoygXkG9xNwWu2g7U PYwXt/yjZeng9N1adBobSzDIXQnE9qOxpZ1J5IHQo2GOTQxHHAA30AY90r9rGRmO KxLwexjFSCoB9DL0yHxPm6iLmzuCi0doAC6NhdVJd5Kliv/aTayCX+s+gfC3ZBh/ 84P72RMHmSHVp+f2hc3Q3Al2HpbqR4FfFTXi5sF8Db6MTwR26aFBztzJwM9B5K0= =Jug9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
