In <199905291509.RAA43978@ans.helios.de> I submitted a patch to get perl extension loading work if perl is not the main program, e.g if it is itself a plug-in to another system like mod_perl in Apache. Unfortunately I deleted more code than was good, as in the mod_perl case the loaded extensions might still need to bind to symbols from the main Apache executable as well as to the perl callbacks in the mod_perl shared object. So I would like to submit another patch for perl-5.6.0-RC3, that partially re-instates the old code to bind against the real main part of the executable but keeps the change that binds against the shared object perl is linked into (which may be the same). This patch also handles some compilation issues of FREAD and FWRITE being defined in the system headers (clashes with perlio) and implements the new dl_unload_file call. -- Jens-Uwe Mager HELIOS Software GmbH Steinriede 3 30827 Garbsen Germany Phone: +49 5131 709320 FAX: +49 5131 709325 Internet: jum@helios.deThread Next
