+
+ Definition of Sunos dynamic Linking functions
+ =============================================
+ In order to make this implementation easier to understand here is a
+ quick definition of the SunOS Dynamic Linking functions which are
+ used here.
+
+ dlopen
+ ------
+ void *
+ dlopen(path, mode)
+ char * path;
+ int mode;
+
+ This function takes the name of a dynamic object file and returns
+ a descriptor which can be used by dlsym later. It returns NULL on
+ error.
+
+ The mode parameter must be set to 1 for Solaris 1 and to
+ RTLD_LAZY (==2) on Solaris 2.
+
+
+ dlsym
+ ------
+ void *
+ dlsym(handle, symbol)
+ void * handle;
+ char * symbol;
+
+ Takes the handle returned from dlopen and the name of a symbol to
+ get the address of. If the symbol was found a pointer is
+ returned. It returns NULL on error. If DL_PREPEND_UNDERSCORE is
+ defined an underscore will be added to the start of symbol. This
+ is required on some platforms (freebsd).
+
+ dlerror
+ ------
+ char * dlerror()
+
+ Returns a null-terminated string which describes the last error
+ that occurred with either dlopen or dlsym. After each call to
+ dlerror the error message will be reset to a null pointer. The
+ SaveError function is used to save the error as soo as it happens.
+
+
+ Return Types
+ ============
+ In this implementation the two functions, dl_load_file &
+ dl_find_symbol, return void *. This is because the underlying SunOS
+ dynamic linker calls also return void *. This is not necessarily
+ the case for all architectures. For example, some implementation
+ will want to return a char * for dl_load_file.
+
+ If void * is not appropriate for your architecture, you will have to
+ change the void * to whatever you require. If you are not certain of
+ how Perl handles C data types, I suggest you start by consulting
+ Dean Roerich's Perl 5 API document. Also, have a look in the typemap
+ file (in the ext directory) for a fairly comprehensive list of types
+ that are already supported. If you are completely stuck, I suggest you
+ post a message to perl5-porters, comp.lang.perl.misc or if you are really
+ desperate to me.
+
+ Remember when you are making any changes that the return value from
+ dl_load_file is used as a parameter in the dl_find_symbol
+ function. Also the return value from find_symbol is used as a parameter
+ to install_xsub.
+
+
+ Dealing with Error Messages
+ ============================
+ In order to make the handling of dynamic linking errors as generic as
+ possible you should store any error messages associated with your
+ implementation with the StoreError function.
+
+ In the case of SunOS the function dlerror returns the error message
+ associated with the last dynamic link error. As the SunOS dynamic
+ linker functions dlopen & dlsym both return NULL on error every call
+ to a SunOS dynamic link routine is coded like this
+
+ RETVAL = dlopen(filename, 1) ;
+ if (RETVAL == NULL)
+ SaveError("%s",dlerror()) ;
+
+ Note that SaveError() takes a printf format string. Use a "%s" as
+ the first parameter if the error may contain and % characters.
