What about given libname.so explicitly (e.g. libname.so)? > Does j9 really use 'libname.a' as a failure fallback in this case? The load library gets the entire library name, after construction from dll_build_name. This is always a .so file name. When .so file name fails to load, we fallback to .a filename. Do i need to mention the filename as libfilename.so then ? ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/16604#discussion_r1472417159
