Create *.SO library

[User_Russian]

In Windows, when you create a DLL, created also LIB-file.
In Linux, when creating SO library does not create *.a file! How to create it? Need for import functions from SO libraries.

You don't need a lib file equivalent on linux, Import works with shared objects as they are

[User_Russian]

You mean:

Code: Select all

Import "MyLib.so"
  Funct(Param)
EndImport

But then it in the executable file be an absolute path to the so-file!
That is:

/home/UserName/PureBasic/Files/TestProject/MyLib.so

On another computer, the program will not work because there is no such file path!

[User_Russian]

Prompt how to solve this problem?
Import is not meaningful because the absolute path!

[idle]

Try adding the program path to the enviroment path on start up
or install the .SO under usr/lib

Importing an .SO still uses dlopen under the hood as far as I know

In such case, better OpenLibrary() and prototypes.
Import in Linux, bad implemented.
