- OK Gentle Gurus, here's another one:
-
- Our application uses GL graphics under AIX. If you link against the
- 'official' X libraries on AIX 3.1 (which are R3 :-() there's no problem.
- But now I'm linking against X11R5 libraries, and when I run my program I
- get the following dynamic linker errors:
-
- Could not load program dge
- Symbol AIX_ASYNC in /lib/libgl.a is undefined
- Symbol XLookupMapping in /lib/libgl.a is undefined
- Could not load library libgl.a[shr.o]
- Error was: Exec format error
-
- Now XLookupMapping is in the 3.1 liboldX.a but it's not documented except
- in AIX documentation. I don't think it's anything I care about, since we
- don't use the GL event queue, but is it safe to dummy it out?
-
- Also what is this AIX_ASYNC? It appears to be a integer 0, but does it have
- any special significance???
-
- Thanks, by the way, to all who replied to my query on shared libraries and X.
