- Thank you! I sent mail yesterday to Mr. Lewine stating the same
- thing and proposing something like:
-
- void *(*local_func())(char *filename, char *entryname)
-
- Where local_func() is part of POSIX. Filename is a fully qualified
- file name where the source code that describes the function may be found.
- Entryname describes the entry point in the object.
-
- The only problem that I can see is that the above function
- limits the new functions to always only returning a pointer
- to void. Perhaps an additional argument describing the type
- of return value?
