Hi everyone,
I'm migrating a dll file from Windows operative system (cygwin compiled)
to Linux RH 7.2 (GCC).
I implemented the corresponding makefile to get the .so file working
properly. After some time testing it and solving some problems, I got
the library running. But I detect a problem now I'm not able to solve.
I call A.so from an executable B. B and A.so have several routines
duplicated. Obviously, the reason for having them is differnet compiler
options for B and A.so. So, if I have the routine C duplicated in A.so
and B, the internal code is different for C in A.so and C in B. Under
Cygwin I don't have any problem because the executable and the dll file
use their own routines, but in Linux C routine in B is always mapped
everywhere in the program. So, when calling C from A.so the program
calls C from B and I have an undesirable behaviour.
Is it possible to adapt the compiler/linker behaviour to match the
Windows compilation ?
How can it be done ?
Any compiler/linker option ?
Thanks in advance. Ignasi Villagrasa.
