Hi,
I've got it to work, by adding a 'main' function to my shared object code.
I don't understand why I need to do this though. I didn't think that
'main' functions were required in shared objects, and when I compile
using the shell, it compiles ok without one. When I used the same code
on my old system, it worked without needing to add one, even in the exec
function executions.
Could this be a bug in GCC? The version I'm using currently is 4.3.3.
Alternatively, is there another option I should add when using exec
functions to call GCC to prevent the need for adding 'main' functions?
Thanks,
Marcus.
